a series by Christopher James looking at the 'Gay Best Friend' trope
Jess (Parminder Nagra) and Tony (Ameet Chana) are best friends and soccer players who both experience struggles within their strict Indian community.In honor of the “big game” yesterday, I wanted to see if there were any sports movies that would fit the Gay Best Friend column. The venn diagrams were slim, until I stumbled upon the crowd-pleasing surprise 2003 hit Bend it Like Beckham. Gurinder Chada’s sports romantic comedy grew from an initial release in just six theaters and ended up grossing $32 million domestically and $76 million worldwide. The film follows a young Indian girl, Jess (Parminder Nagra) who defies her family’s wishes and pursues playing on an all girls soccer team. What follows is an interesting and frank examination of cultural and gendered norms around sports.
So who’s the Gay Best Friend? Don’t worry,...

Cast your minds back to 2002 - a time when Pop Idols didn't need to have The X Factor, Fifty Shades of Grey were just colours on a paint sampler chart and David Beckham was a mere international superstar rather than global megastar.
Bend It Like Beckham, with a modest estimated budget of £3.7 million, opened that same year and became a critical and commercial success - breaking box office records and scoring BAFTA and Golden Globe nominations, as well as making household names of many of its stars.

You’ve probably read our exclusive Unhallowed Ground review by now, but if you haven’t here’s the skinny: Unhallowed Ground is a brand new British horror film written by Paul Rachid, who also appears in the film, directed by Russell England (Holby City, Paranormal Witness) and starring Morgane Polanski, Poppy Drayton, Rachel Petladwala, Thomas Law, Marcus Griffiths, Will Thorp and Ameet Chana.
Six late teen/early twenties from North London single-sex private schools spend a night patrolling the eerie grounds of the historic Dhoultham School as part of an initiative with the British Army to provide rich kids with basic military training. As each hour passes and the teenagers complete their mundane tasks, they witness a series of increasingly disturbing occurrences: slamming doors, self-governing lights and ghostly apparitions.
As they spend more and more time together, personal conflicts are magnified and the School’s history erupts onto the surface of proceedings.

The United Kingdom title Unhallowed Ground has a trailer. The clip shows several students initiated in the Dhoultham School. Here, Satanists once resided on the grounds, over 350 years ago. The film stars Ameet Chana, Poppy Drayton and Marcus Griffiths. Unhallowed Ground will release in the Spring of 2015. To develop the story further, in the 17th Century, the plague ravaged England. Students of the Dhoultham School turned to witchcraft and sorcery to try and protect themselves from near certain death. Their Satanic worship caused even more anguish. And now, the worshippers look for more souls to consume. Unhallowed Ground is an indie horror feature. Developed by Aviary Films, this title shows promise in setting and story. Fans of supernatural hauntings or of slasher films can view more on Unhallowed Ground below. Release Date: Q1. Director: Russell England. Writer: Paul Raschid. Cast: Ameet Chana, Poppy Drayton, Marcus Griffiths, Thomas Law and Andrew Lewis.

The London Indian Film Festival opened on the evening of Thursday 30th June with the premiere of Delhi Belly. The blurb on the Festival’s website stated that special guests were expected and, all in all, the attendees would have been right to expect a grand first night.
