On Saturday, May 27th at 3:45pm, the feature film Claudia directed by Edward Westrop will have its world premiere at the Romford Film Festival.
Claudia is a black comedy about a misogynistic, sixty-something year old man named Raymond who forms an emotional relationship with a life-sized, female mannequin.

Claudia is Westrop’s first feature film and has already been selected by the ‘Out of the Can International Film Festival’ and the ‘London International Film Festival’, gaining both honourable mention and finalist laurels. Alongside directing/self producing his short films,...

Phoebe Waller-Bridge‘s global takeover continued in earnest late Saturday, with the Brit auteur’s tragicomic Amazon series Fleabag dominating the 2019 Television Critics Association Awards with three trophies, including best comedy series, best comedic performer (for Waller-Bridge) and the coveted Program of the Year. Waller-Bridge, who in addition to being Fleabag‘s titular star also is the show’s creator/writer/EP, was on hand for the non-televised ceremony, which was hosted by Desus & Mero. (Could a Fleabag Emmy sweep be next?)
Waller-Bridge has previously stated that Fleabag‘s now-TCA award winning second season would serve as the series’ swan song.
