It's rare I become shy but I got to meet and shake hands with my favourite director Park Chan-wook this evening and I don't remember what I said because I was gushing like a fan girl but it was such an honour to meet a master and another legend Lee Byung-hun who is just the coolest.

Just me trying to be as cool as Casey, one of our amazing contributors in Dwarf Story.

If you are in any of these areas then come along to watch the film and join the conversation.

Hello, I would very much like to connect with and talk to more Producers and Production Companies working in the sports spaces across documentary and/or branded about upcoming projects and potential team ups. I'm based in London but happy to connect with people anywhere.

Shares very welcome!

I really appreciate this thoughtful review of Dwarf Story from Documentary Drive in Australia. They really got the film! Thank you.

The film is available for two more weeks for audiences in Australia as part of the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival.

Ok, who's going to Sheffield Doc Fest this year? I'm now going for the first time and would love to meet as many people as possible and watch lots of films/talks. I'll be there the morning of the 19th to the evening of the 21st. Hit me up if you are going.

DiscussingFilm @discussingfilm.net · May 6

Chad Stahelski says ‘JOHN WICK 5’ will be a very different story for the character.

“John dealt with his grief. It will be really different, and everybody [will] see the trailer and go, ‘Holy fuck... I gotta see that’”
