Inside the London Film Festival premieres and Frieze week parties

Londoner’s Diary

The Southbank is filled with stars for the London Film Festival. Elle Fanning and Stellan Skarsgård had a waltz on the red carpet for Sentimental Value, in which Fanning plays a Hollywood actress in a Norwegian film. During the Q&A, Renate Reinsve described how the cast felt so connected, “like an organism”, which Skarsgård misheard as “like an orgasm”. Makes sense, Reinsve observed, since he was dressed like Hugh Hefner. George Clooney was at the premiere of Jay Kelly, in which he also plays a movie star. All very meta.
