Joanna Hogg dedicated her award to the late Chris Collins.
The 24th annual Women in Film and TV Awards, held at the Park Lane Hilton in London yesterday, honoured Vanessa Redgrave with its Lifetime Achievement Award, sponsored by Eon Productions. She is pictured with David Hare, who presented her trophy. “Thank you beyond words,” Redgrave said. “Good luck to everybody who is trying to do good work in film and TV wherever they may be.”
Rosamund Pike was honoured with the Mac Best Performance Award for her role in Gone Girl. The heavily pregnant actress accepted with a charming video message that praised novelist Gillian Flynn and director David Fincher for taking a risk by casting her as Amy. She joked that she could give birth while the lunch was going on, and quipped that “it takes less time to make a human being than it does to make a film.”

Edge of Tomorrow, Tom Cruise's summer sci-fi movie about a reluctant soldier who's cursed with the gift of reliving the same day that he's killed by aliens over and over again—until he navigates through battle safely—wasn't the blockbuster that it might have been. It inched past $100 million in the U.S. and grossed a total of $369 million, but critics heaped praise on Cruise, whose Major William Cage reminded some of A Few Good Men's lackadaisical Daniel Kaffee, and Emily Blunt, who played a heroic supersoldier with a sixth sense for slaughtering the spidery aliens that invaded Earth.

As a man who spends most of his time in dark rooms, staring at a screen and ignoring the people around him, it would be unfair for me to pretend I’m some sort of expert on social convention. That said, I think it would be fair to describe the atmosphere as a little awkward, as our sizeable group of journalists, publicists and tour guides was confronted by the chap whose house we’d been photographing.
We’d been on a tour of locations used by Universal Studios films, and this startlingly pink house, our fourth stop of the day, featured briefly in Love Actually as the home of Kiera Knightly’s character. It seemed like as good a place to stop as any just minutes before, but now, as our tour guide explained the significance of the property to the oblivious, and somewhat confused homeowner, I began to doubt that,...
