Ok, so it's time for the final installment of the goings on at the DIFF VIP Lounge...
Colin Firth, who said he recognised the colour palette immediately, loved his Storyline of Inspired by The King's Speech. Michael Apted, director of The World Is Not Enough and The Chronicles of Narnia, received the Lifetime Achievement Award at DIFF 2012. Although he was a jury member, he found time to pick up his Storyline inspired by The Coal Miner's Daughter. Representing regional talent we were also excited that Ali Mostafa and Amr Waked were able to join us, along with legendary Egyptian actress Ragaa el Gedawy. Last but most definitely not least, Jessica Mauboy picked up the Storyline of her first film Bran Nue Dae.
We've spoken to Ali Mostafa since and he has said he'd like Storylines of all the films he makes! Gotta be happy with that.
