The BFI London Film Festival 2020 is bringing love & palaeontology for his closing film

How can you not be excited by this announcement? After its world premiere in the Toronto Film Festival, we will have the privilege to discover the new gem of Francis Lee (God’s own country), Ammonite as the closing film of the BFI London Film Festival on the 17th of October.

Synopsis:

In the 1840s, acclaimed self-taught paleontologist Mary Anning (Winslet) works alone on the wild and brutal southern English coastline at Lyme Regis. The days of her famed discoveries behind her, she now hunts for common fossils to sell to rich tourists to support herself and her ailing widowed mother. When one such tourist, Roderick Murchison, arrives in Lyme on the first leg of a European tour, he entrusts Mary with the care of his young wife Charlotte (Ronan), who is recuperating from a personal tragedy.

Mary, whose life is a daily struggle on the poverty line, cannot afford to turn him down, but, proud and relentlessly passionate about her work, she clashes with her unwanted guest. They are two women from utterly different worlds. Yet despite the chasm between their social spheres and personalities, Mary and Charlotte discover they can each offer what the other has been searching for: the realisation that they are not alone. It is the beginning of a passionate and all-consuming love affair that will defy all social bounds and alter the course of both lives irrevocably.

This love story starring Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan seems perfect for now with the trailer revealed yesterday. Delicacy, romance and fossils are in the program and I could not be more happy.

For the premiere, the audiences will be able to enjoy a virtual introduction from Francis Lee and key cast.

As this year is definitely different, the BFI london Film Festival is bringing Ammonite in London and in selected cinemas across UK to make it available to the widest audience.
