Happy to present our Q&A host for UNDER THE BYPASS feature film @templer_doom

John Higgins is the curator of What Movie (www.whatmovie.co.uk), a film and entertainment website resource that has been partnering LIFF since 2024. John began his career in 1988 as a Production Assistant during the post-production of In Search of Wildlife with David Shepherd, before moving on to the British Board of Film Classification, first as a General Assistant and then training as a Film Projectionist, a post he held for seventeen years between 1996 and 2013.

Since 2015, John has been developing his talents in content creation, including being a critic for the likes of Film and TV Now and Starburst (some reviews on Rotten Tomatoes) and resident Film Expert for the This British Life and Vialucci podcasts over the last eight years. His YouTube channel, John Higgins Film Review, includes interviews with key industry talent, the most recent being Fatima Cortez-Todd, the widow of acting legend Tony Todd.

Recently, John graduated with an MA (Merit) in Writing for Script and Screen from Falmouth University and has several new projects in the works, including an animated series and a horror feature screenplay.

Some conversations aren’t meant to be rushed. ☕️

Tomorrow, we’re finally pouring a fresh episode of A Coffee With... featuring Marcia Kimpton (@marciakimpton ), filmmaker, writer, performer, artist, traveller, and unapologetic free spirit.

From her latest feature An American Abroad (@americanabroadtv ) to life on the road, meditation, yoga, and the stories collected along the way, this conversation takes a few unexpected turns and reminds us that the most interesting journeys rarely follow a straight line.

This reel is just a sip.

The full cup premieres on our YouTube channel tomorrow.

In conversation with London Rolling Film Festival founder and director Alida Pantone (@alidapantone ).

Edited by Mariana Nechaieva (@mareeneva ).

Stay focused. Keep rolling. And grab a coffee for the road.
