Only directors with at least two films to their names are entitled to enter, and most 'experienced' directors don't work with debut writers like me. Did you spot my Hitchcock moment? I was the brunette at the front of the war demo ... Yeah, I know, and I’m grateful we got so far.

As I will only get to see the competition next week I will live in ignorant bliss until then, believing we have a chance :) Glad you enjoyed it.

"What's a Virgin" got a good audience reaction, although it was really just a simple joke. As the girl said before they ran the films, though, they got a "shedload" of entries, so the ones selected for the showing really are the finest short films being made -- well done for getting this far, and fingers crossed for the shortlist!

Setting off now, actually, to see whether the ICA cafe is any good. I’ll be going along this evening — my office is in Pall Mall, so it’s on my doorstep!

We should hear on Monday whether or not its been shortlisted into the top 3. All films will still be shown, but the top 3 are then up for an award too. Sadly, only the directors get invited to the awards ceremony. And I had such a lovely dress picked out too ... :( Thanks Alan.
