I recommend seeing LAURENCE ANYWAYS at #LFF. It is a stunning emotionally charged epic that may have made me cry a little.

What Michael Haneke has done with Amour is, essentially, remake the first five devastating minutes of Up. It’ll hurt your heart. #LFF

Michael Haneke strikes again.AMOUR at the LFF shows why it won at Cannes.Unimaginable that anyone will ever handle this subject better.

Recommended: ghosts, blood, contemplative mooching and lots of acoustic guitar in Apichatpong’s MEKONG HOTEL in #LFF tonight…

#BeastsOfTheSouthernWild is fantastic. So uniquely its own thing. #LFF

Beasts of the Southern Wild: Song of the South for the Instagram Generation! Always ingenious, often beautiful, sometimes infuriating. #LFF

Didn’t get much out of Beasts of the Southern Wild, sadly. Probably in the wrong mood. #lff

Beasts of the Southern Wild is just gorgeously, quietly beautiful. My pick of #LFF so far.

Beyond the Hills: extremely bleak tale of dependence, doubt and religious deception. Reminiscent of The Devils, but much more isolated #LFF

BEASTS OF THE SOUTHERN WILD (A) Had the highest of expectations. It exceeded them. The real deal. #LFF

#BeastsoftheSouthernWild is such a rich experience. Felt completely transported to those wild landscapes. See at cinema for full effect #LFF

Beasts of the Southern Wild is a lovely, fantastical painting of a child’s world. Everything fits together just right. #LFF

Beasts of the Southern Wild: A gorgeous bayou coming-of-age fantasy. Only wish its scope was bigger, more dreamlike #LFF
— James Arden (@jnarden) October 12, 2012
Utterly charmed by the delightfully sublime #RobotAndFrank. Acting and writing of the highest merit. Great start to my #LFF.

Funny & touching without being sentimental #RobotAndFrank will get lots of love when it opens in 2013. Met the cast and crew afterwards #LFF

A fabulous Q&A with the director and Frank Langella was a great little surprise - didn’t expect a Q&A on a matinee screening. #LFF

Ginger and Rosa: Elle Fanning aside, twas riddled with soap opera dynamics and woefully heigtened dialogue which undermined everything #lff
— Matthew Rodgers (@MainstreamMatt) October 12, 2012
Frank Langella is the driving force of #FrankAndRobot playing a man suffering from dementia who is given a robotic companion. Loved it. #LFF
— Flawed Critic (@flawed_critic) October 12, 2012
@bfi Great screening of #Material at screen on the green last night. The Q&A was very entertaining. The film?…delightful & charming #LFF
— Gerry Batson (@vanbatson) October 12, 2012
ROBOT AND FRANK is a brilliant film. Thoroughly enjoyed it. If I was a billionaire I’d go out and buy myself a robot right now. #LFF

Absolutely loved Ginger & Rosa. Thought-provoking, heart-wrenching, beautifully played. Bafta nomination for Elle Fanning plz. #LFF.
— Robbie Collin (@robbiereviews) October 12, 2012
I’ve come up with a new title for ‘Ginger & Rosa’. It’s ‘Give Elle Fanning a BAFTA’. #LFF

#LFF FOR LOVE’S SAKE Takashi Miike’s high school musical doesn’t quite fulfil its potential; could’ve done with more songs and fewer fights.
