Star of London for Best Film: Jacques Audiard’s A PROPHET
On behalf of the London Film Festival jury, Anjelica Huston stated: “A masterpiece: Un prohète has the ambition, purity of vision and clarity of purpose to make it an instant classic.  With seamless and imaginative story-telling, superb performances and universal themes, Jacques Audiard has made a perfect film.” In A Prophet, Tahar Rahim stars as a prison newcomer who learns how to become that realm&#8217;s top dog.

Frameline 33, the 2009 San Francisco International LGBT Film Festival, kicks off on Thursday, June 18, with screenings of Richard Laxton&#8217;s An Englishman in New York (above, top photo), starring John Hurt as Quentin Crisp, and Bonham Sláma&#8217;s rural Czech drama The Country Teacher (above, lower photo), set universes away from glamorous Park Avenue and the superciliousness of Crisp and his milieu. 



Among Frameline 33&#8217;s other films are:

Shine Louise Houston&#8217;s Champion (above, top photo), the tale of a tough female wrestler who must decide between success and &#34;being herself.&#34; (&#34;If you liked Girlfight, but felt like it was missing strap-on action and penetration,&#34; reads Frameline&#8217;s info on the film, &#34;then Champion is for you!&#34;)

Year:

John Hurt gives a  dazzling performance as the young Quentin, a flame-haired flamboyant  homosexual when such things were not permitted. It contains much of the  wit and wisdom of Quentin and celebrates a life lived in a refusal to  conform. The highlight is Quentin&#8217;s impassioned speech from the dock  when charged with soliciting for an immoral purpose.
