Festival 2009


At the twelfth annual Graham Greene International Festival in Berkhamsted (England, UK) from 1st to 4th October 2009 we shall celebrate once again the life and work of the writer during a four-day festival of talks, lectures, films, exhibitions and social events.

In particular, we will celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of the UK release of the classic "film noir" The Third Man (starring Orson Welles, Joseph Cotten, Trevor Howard and Alida Valli, photography by Robert Krasker, screenplay by Graham Greene, directed by Carol Reed). The film won the "Palme d'Or" at the Cannes Film Festival, and Robert Krasker received an Academy Award for Best Cinematographer. Many people consider it to be the best British film ever made.
The film will be screened at 7.30pm on Thursday 1st October 2009 at The Rex, which is an extremely popular and very beautiful art deco cinema in the centre of Berkhamsted.

Full details of the Festival 2009 are now available on our website:
