DIR - MIKE FIGGIS I was on the jury of the Digital Film section of the festival, very much the ghetto of the main event, and I had time on my hands, a camera and I decided to be a fly on the wall for the week. It ends badly at the award ceremony where, somewhat rat-arsed I am asked to go stage and present an award, it seemed to good a camera opportunity to miss. At the after party Helen Mirren, Scarlett Johansson and I try to interview a very serious Mike Leigh and Ms Johansson spills a glass of chilled white wine down her decolletage
