Welcome To The National Media Museum

The National Media Museum is probably an easier name to remember than The National Museum of Photography, Film and Television, its former name.  The museum houses a large Imax cinema and two smaller cinemas, two exhibition galleries, a whole downstairs floor on the history of photography and historic cameras, a gallery on the history of television, and more recent exhibits on computer gaming and the internet, so the current name is probably more apt than the former name.  The picture shows the balconies overlooking the foyer area of the museum.

Bradford International Film Festival

     Well, it's the last day of the Bradford Film Festival and not one picture of the event.  To be honest, I've never really been that interested in film, unlike my father who saw 'The Great Caruso' forty seven times when it first came out.  Probably the only two actors I could easily recognise would be Sean Connery or Michael Caine.  The picture above is of the bonnet of the BMW car used to ferry VIPs to and from the Film Festival.  It was parked outside of the Media Museum, so there must have been some film celebrity in there, but I don't know who, and I probably wouldn't recognise them anyway, unless it was Michael Caine or Sean Connery.
