All at WFTV are very sad to hear of the passing of trailblazing British film editor Anne V Coates at the age of 92. She was the recipient of our Lifetime Achievement Award in 2000, recognising her outstanding career. An inspiration to us all. #womeninfilm

The loss of Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins is truly devastating and an incident that should never have happened. Our thoughts go out to her family, friends and the crew of 'Rust' at this tragic time. #HalynaHutchins

I don't think I am overstating this, but this letter from Emma Thompson on her departure from Luck is one the most significant moments in this movement.

Day 4 of our #ForgottenFreelancers campaign - a continuing reminder of all those #Freelancers & #SelfEmployed workers who have been left with no gov support. This needs to change and fast! It's deeply unfair that 3 million freelancers have been left with nothing @RishiSunak
