On June 1st, BFI (the British Film Institute), in association with the Academy of Motion Arts and Sciences, is screening the UK and European premiere of Richard Williams' lost masterpiece - "The Thief and the Cobbler: A Moment in Time".
BFI will be screening a new digital version of the reconstructed work-print at the BFI/Southbank in London. Richard Williams will be in discussion with veteran film critic David Robinson following the screening. BFI members can buy tickets now and tickets go on sale to the public on May 13th:
This is a unique opportunity to meet one of the animation industry's greatest talents, in a rare public forum. With any luck many of the original crew will be there too, an informal reunion for the many talented artists who worked for years on this epic hand-drawn feature film.
