Have won two free tickets to see Butterfield 8 at the London BFI tonight (Wednesday, 3 Aug 20:45 NFT1) but cant go. If anyone wants them and can make it please let me know and Ill send them the details that will allow them to pick the tickets up at the box office.

Butterfield 8
Quote:
MGM insisted that Taylor fulfil her contractual obligations before making Cleopatra for Fox. The resulting animosity, and Taylor's vilification for her relationship with co-star and fourth husband Eddie Fisher, coloured her view of BUtterfield 8 (her verdict: 'piece of ******', scrawled in lipstick across a screening room mirror - a nod to the famous 'no sale' scene). The Academy disagreed and, after three successive Best Actress nominations, Taylor won for her mesmerising performance as lost soul Gloria Wandrous.

Director Daniel Mann
