The BFI London Film Festival proved an excellent host for the premiere this evening of The Thing with Feathers. The new film from Dylan Southern is a haunting and poetic adaptation of Max Porter’s celebrated novel Grief Is the Thing with Feathers, starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Richard Boxall, Henry Boxall, Eric Lampaert, Vinette Robinson, Sam Spruell, Leo Bill and David Thewlis.
Colin Hart and Madison Hart were on the red carpet — here are their interviews.

Plot:
Left to raise two young sons after the unexpected death of his wife, Dad’s life begins to unravel. Grief is messy and chaotic enough as it is, but when it takes the form of an unhinged and unwanted house guest – Crow – taunting him from the shadows, things start to spiral out of control… but maybe that’s exactly what Dad needs.
The Thing with Feathers is screening as part of the 2025 London Film Festival. Find out more and book your tickets here: https://whatson.bfi.org.uk/lff/#
