This Friday heralds the release of Andrea Arnold’s new film version of Emily Brontë’s beloved novel, Wuthering Heights. In honour of this occasion, which marks the FIRST TIME anyone has made a film of this book, BFF have compiled a list of…wait, what? What’s that you say? You mean, there’s been a film of Wuthering Heights before?! Seriously, though, here’s a list of the Top 10 classic novels that KEEP GETTING FILMED.

The Oscars 2012 are, ever so slowly, creeping up on us. And how better than to celebrate the upcoming 84th Academy Award than by pretending we’re psychic and predicting the big winners. We’re even doing this BEFORE THE NOMINATIONS LIST IS REVEALED, because we’re badasses like that. From Melancholia to The Artist, we’ve covered a lot of ground here; take a gander at our prophetic visions and see if you agree with our predictions for the 2012 Oscars…

Everybody loves a good award show, which is why we’re very excited to report the official winners of The 68th Venice International Film Festival, organized by La Biennale di Venezia. The nominations, in spirit of the festival’s aim, help to raise awareness of international cinema in all its forms: as art, entertainment and as an industry, in a spirit of freedom and tolerance. And, with two UK winners on the list, we’re pleased to see that British cinema still has some excellent contenders in its midst…

So indecisive you can’t choose what mug to use for your frothy morning energiser? Well hopefully this list will help you narrow down those options. But for films, not mugs. Hmm…although there might be a gap in the market for Best for Mugs.

THERE AREN’T ANY PARTS LEFT, BAZ. STOP CASTING PEOPLE WHEN THERE AREN’T ANY PARTS LEFT.
