The 12th Chichester Film Festival

21st August - 7th September 2003
The South Coast Cinematic Event of the Year

Festival Booking opens Monday 4th August at 11am...

The Film Festival is the highlight of the Chichester Cinema’s calendar and we are hoping to build on last years success, when over 5,000 people came to see films during the 18 days of the Festival.

This year, we are very proud to open and close the 12th Chichester Film Festival with two important UK productions - Jim Sheridan’s moving In America (21st August) and the hilarious Calendar Girls. (7th September). Sandwiched between these two prestigious films will be over 70 films, including 12 UK premieres and 25 previews of world cinema including: From Australia (the much anticipated Ned Kelly), UK (The Four Features), East-Asia (The Grudge) and the US (Gods and Generals).

There will be retrospectives of the work of leading film-makers (Luchino Visconti and Bertrand Tavernier), as well as themed programming such as the Anthony Minghella Triple Bill and a look at the four films based on Patricia Highsmith’s Ripley books. A series of discussions and Q&A sessions with visiting producers, directors and actors will support the programming. There will also be a repeat of the highly successful International Short Film Competition.
