Experience some of the best of UK books in film    

Friday  5 October 2007 - Sunday 21 October 2007

The relationship between books and images is more intriguing than many people imagine and it is this affiliation that is the theme of the UK Film Festival 2007 – Reel Books.

The festival opened on 5 October with Becoming Jane, Julian Jarrod’s film about the life of the seminal English novelist, Jane Austen, and also David Mackenzie's Hallam Foe. Other highlights included the Oscar-nominated Notes on a Scandal starring Dame Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett and the Oscar and BAFTA-winning The Last King of Scotland, Kevin MacDonald’s critically-acclaimed feature about Idi Amin’s last months in power in Uganda.

The UK Film Festival 2007 was jointly presented by the British Council and British Consulate-General in Hong Kong.

The festival ran from 5 to 21 October at various venues, including Broadway Cinematheque, Palace IFC, AMC Festival Walk, Hong Kong Arts Centre and the Hong Kong Film Archive.
