I’m helping out with the British Film Institute’s 75th birthday celebrations. They’ve asked 75 different ‘well-known people’ to nominate one film each, then ‘the public’ are able to vote on them. The top 5 will be screened at the BFI from January. Here are a few of the choices:

There have been 63 different films nominated so get over there and vote for your favourite. You’ve got til the 30th of September to cast your vote.

Right now the top 10 looks like this:

1. Blade Runner
2. Quadrophenia
3. The Godfather
4. Stalker
5. Pulp Fiction
6. Lawrence of Arabia
7. The Third Man
8. A Matter of Life and Death
9. Singin’ in the Rain
10. Metropolis

If you think that, say, Lawrence of Arabia should be part of the top 5 to be screened instead of Pulp Fiction, then get voting (yea, yea, technically you can only vote once, but if you really care there’s the old wipe the cache and cookies trick!). The whole current order of the films can be seen here.

Come on, kids, help me out and vote!

I’m going to be attending all the X-Files events over the next few days in London. In order to let everyone *not* attending get a flavour of what is going on, I’m going to *try* and film and broadcast live from my mobile. I will be at the Q&A with Frank Spotnitz and Chris Carter at HMV tomorrow evening, the premiere is on Wednesday (I’ve got red carpet access and am guaranteed time with David and Gillian) and on Thursday Frank and Chris will be doing a signing at Forbidden Planet.

If you want to keep track of what I’m doing, check back here over the next few days.
