The Sundance Kid takes London in style
Thanks to HR Owen and Aston Martin, the participants of London’s first Sundance Film Festival – including the great man himself – navigated our fair city’s streets in appropriate style. The actors, musicians and directors were given access to a small fleet of one of the most desirable four doors on the planet: the glorious Aston Martin Rapide – supplied by HR Owen and Aston Martin for the duration of the festival. This included two Rapides dedicated just to Mr Redford, his wife and staff for the week of their stay in London. Nothing less than the great man deserves if you ask us.

The Philadelphia Story
The Philadelphia Story seems relatively unknown by audiences, and it rarely ranks highly on those lists of the Top 100 films of all time. It’s a great shame that more people haven’t seen the film that firmly established the great Katherine Hepburn, which gave James Stewart his only Academy Award for Best Actor, and that only seems to improve with age. Dublo explains why it’s his favourite film. Ever.

To Catch A Thief
Hitchcock’s To Catch A Thief, starring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly, contained many of Hitchcock’s usual motifs, such as the innocent man wronged and the cool blonde heroine, it lacked much of the tension that was his trademark. What it did have, however, was stars, glamour and romance.
