Film Reviews The film industry relies heavily on publicity. Reviews are an important source of information about films. They appear in a number of forms: TV programmes Magazines/ Specialist film magazines, such as Empire, Premiere, Hotdog & DVD Review, try to cover all feature films that are released. Rental & retail DVD releases Newspapers both national, local & freebies Radio stations have slots in programmes where newly released films are discussed Film websites Phone APPs http://mediadepartment.king-ed.suffolk.sch.uk
