55th BFI London Film Festival - Day 8 Video Highlights

The British Film Institute have released their latest Vodcast, rounding up all the big talking points from the eighth day of the London Film Festival. The big attraction yesterday was the premiere of George Clooney's (Confessions of a Dangerous Mind) latest directorial effort, The Ides of March, which features a stellar cast including Paul Giamatti (Win Win), Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote), Evan Rachel Wood (The Wrestler) and Ryan Gosling (Drive). Clooney, Wood, Hoffman and screenwriter Beau Willimon (House of Cards) were all on hand on the red carpet to discuss their thoughts on the film, while other highlights included director Azazel Jacobs (Momma's Man) presenting his latest, Terri, and Dexter Fletcher (Kick-Ass) and cinematographer George Richmond (War Horse) delivered a masterclass to discuss Fletcher's directorial debut, Wild Bill.

"The Ides of March synopsis: During the frantic last days before a heavily contested Ohio presidential primary, an up-and-coming campaign press secretary finds himself involved in a political scandal that threatens to upend his candidate’s shot at the presidency."
