Side of the BFI Southbank's entrance, alternatively known as the National Film Theatre, on an overcast last-afternoon in London's Southbank. Lights and lit-up signs have already been turned on in advance of the coming night. A colourful BFI London Film Festival 2025 banner adorns the side of the marquee.
To the right side of an entrance into the Southbank Centre is a colourful wall adorned with BFI London Film Festival 2025 logos and above that, an electronic sign utilising a poster for the film "Rental Family" besides a poster for the festival with words at the bottom saying "American Express Gala". A red carpet adorns the floor that follows into the building and several people in front of the colourful wall mingle ahead of going inside. It's an overcast last-afternoon, rendered slightly darker looking by the lighting choice of the photo.
Evening in London, the skyline surrounding St. Paul's Cathedral is our focus with the buildings lit up, a bridge lit from below with colourful fluorescent lighting and the river Thames illuminated by the reflections of it all.
London Blackfriars train station, nighttime. An empty wide shot of the station with a sign signalling the name of the station and directions to the left and right to outside locations hovering above a set of metal chairs. The windows have a deep blackness to them that the lights of buildings from a London skyline decorate. As of when this was taken, there's no trains visible as of yet. (Fun fact: this was taken 2 days before the other photos, which were taken in my last LFF trip of the year on Thursday 16th October 2025.)
Since my last imagepost, I did one more thing at #LFF2025 ("Rental Family" Gala, review soon) but yeah, got to my average of seeing 5 films again and no movie was a dud. Another great fest, thank you London~ <3

Nouvelle Vague

A Graceful Echo
#LFF2025 Film No. 11
It’s fitting that a film about the birth of cinematic cool should look this good. Nouvelle Vague is Richard Linklater’s playful, monochrome homage to the making of À Bout de Souffle — a…

And that’s it for #LFF2025. A high standard of films seen with SIRĀT and THE SECRET AGENT the stand-outs. World Cinema looks in pretty good shape on this evidence.

#LFF2025 Park Chan-Wook’s NO OTHER CHOICE is a ‘man out of work’ drama vaguely reminiscent of Laurent Cantet’s TIME OUT but far broader in its delivery as it swerves into broad, dark comedy and horror. Although enjoyable this is quite a step down from the superb DECISION TO LEAVE.

#LFF2025 LA GRAZIA is another Paolo Sorrentino / Tony Servillo team up which again delivers. Servillo is inevitably excellent as a popular retiring Italian president with a few final decisions to make. Engrossing throughout.
