Iain Sinclair's 70x70 film season: 2013-2014The writer is curating a season of 70 classic and unusual films throughout his 70th birthday year, presented in cinemas and quirky venues across the capital.
What’s interesting from a Foxx-perspective, is the inclusion of
Hackney 8mm Diary Films. 1969 > 1975 - 7/8 June at The Barbican in 2014. I have no idea if these are the films that Foxx scored the music to back in 2010, but it’s possible they could be.
