Alex

No Q&As this evening but it was my absolute pleasure to go to dinner and drinks with Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney after the screening of his brilliant new documentary, We Steal Secrets: The Story of Wikileaks. He's a good guy making great films. (For you cycling types, he'd been making a film about Lance Armstrong which was almost finished when the shit hit the fan earlier this year; he's obviously now having to re-edit it fairly extensively and shoot new material - he filmed an interview with Lance three weeks ago.) Khaled, yesterday's blipee, joined us and told us over dinner about how he used to be a bodyguard for Yasser Arafat. Nights like this are exactly why I love the film festival. :-)
