A nice documentary on the life of Desmond Tutu. Nothing radical or special, but man, it’s the type of doc that makes you miss him, his philosophy and what he did for South Africa and beyond. His energy was infectious, which just made me smile throughout. #Tutu #LFF

Really enjoyed Olive Nwosu's film. Just like My Father's Shadow, there's something about how they capture Lagos, Nigeria with all of its vibrancy and complexities that was so familiar to me. Jessica Gabriel's Ujah's performance is a force of nature. Look forward to revisiting. #Lady #LFF

I honestly don't know what to make of this film because it's so lukewarm and tepid to me. Brad Bird's #RayGunn is certainly ambitious and occasionally fun at times. But it's also overstuffed and never finds the right flow. Definitely not a kids' film, but the adult stuff never lands. Purgatory. #LFF

Eleanor Coppola’s Making Marie Antoinette - finished posthumously by her kids - is a delightful if slightly melancholy on-set doc about the making of Sofia’s beautiful and radical film and how female artists balance their work and family.

I've been so stuck in with #LFF, but it's a sign of a strong lineup when 14 films in the lowest score I've had is a 2.5, and there's still so much great stuff yet to come over the next 8 days! Prepare yourself for a highlights thread:

#Everest:TheOtherSide is a gorgeous, heart-wrenching story of grief, loss and pushing on for the people you've lost. Hilaree Nelson and Jim Morrison put everything on the line to achieve their dreams, sometimes at the expense of those they loved. I laughed, I cried, I left inspired. #LFF

Ray Gunn - Skydance unfortunately made a very good movie. An obvious product of the 90’s that thinks it can deal with prejudice, and a hard-PG passion project that has carefully studied the greats. While it would have been awesome and even sexier in 2D, Bird pushes CGI close to the same thrill.

#LFF
Nineteen years in the making, A Mighty Adventure is like a Minuscule movie with twice the danger, twice the physical abuse and twice the cuteness. Real cinema. When kids in the audience end up crying over bugs, you know you’ve won. We’ve created such a threatening world for these little guys!!!

#LFF
If Rogue Trooper had to be an all-CG movie, Tintin-ifying it on a budget and on Unreal Engine is not an unfitting way to go. As closely as Duncan Jones nails the Brit comic spirit, though, his nerd ambitions remain too big for his britches. Neither funny, mad, mean nor satisfyingly gory enough.

Scarlett Johansson attends the red carpet for World Premiere Of Ray Gunn screening during the London Film Festival 2026 on Saturday 10 October 2026 at Royal Festival Hall, London.

In the Shadows (2026): Jasmine Jobson plays Ramla Ali in this biopic of the first professional Somalian woman boxer, but hides it from her family due to cultural stigma. Despite strong turns from Jobson and Finn Cole as her converted husband and trainer, it's an inspiring story flatly told. #LFF

Paper Tiger: Ex-cop turned businessman Adam Driver brings his brother Miles Teller in to partner with him, only for Teller to fall foul of Russian gangsters in James Gray's crime drama. While the story is familiar, this is elegantly made and has a snake-like grip that's genuinely threatening. #LFF

Wild Horse Nine: Sam Rockwell takes his dying hitman partner John Malkovich to Easter Island in Martin McDonaugh's dark comedy. A rumination of death from those that take lives for a living, and while reminiscent of McDonaugh's In Bruges, it feels more contemplative, between the witty dialogue. #LFF
