Heart of England International Film Festival
Michael’s in the top director’s ‘chair’
AWARD-WINNING director Michael Bergmann added the most unlikeliest notch on his global film festival belt this week – the top Tammie.
The Montreal favourite, famous for spotting new talents like Calista Flopckhart and re-igniting the flames of established actors such as Man from U.N.C.L.E. Robert Vaughn, took the Best in Festival at Tamworth’s inaugural Heart of England International event for his movie Tied To A Chair.

Tamworth making movie history
TAMWORTH – more than 1,000 years ago the unofficial Saxon capital of Britain – is ready to claim a new crown as the movie festival CAPITAL of the UK.
