Best Comedy at the Portobello Film Festival
Published by on August 20th, 2005
I was in a movie. A small, virtually no budget movie, but a movie nonetheless:
Face Ache
Graham manifests an amazing ability to solve crimes with his atrocious acne; resulting in police interest, media fame and culminating in a personal quest to solve the sordid riddle of his own DNA.
Last week I popped up to watch it for the first time on the big(ish) screen at the Portobello Film Festival and finally experienced a closeup of my face 8ft high on a movie screen - slightly terrifying, slightly exhillarating!
Yesterday we heard Face Ache had won Best Comedy at the festival. Portobello may not be Cannes, but it feels pretty darn good to be part of an award winning movie!

It is a cute movie. To see that eyebrow of yours the size of a well-fed badger on screen… wow!
Congrats to those involved! Good job!

Is the movie available online? btw the url in the post is broken…
Congrats Neil! Must be a very weird experience. ‘Award winning actor’ has a nice ring to it …
Thanks for pointing the broken link, Steve.
As yet, the movie is not available online, but there’s a good chance it could be there soon, particularly after this award. Watch this space.
Alex, I don’t wanna be no actor, it’s such a dull, tedious job if my experience is anything to go by. I just wanted to play with the cameras and toys…
Wow Neil, congratulations. I missed this - I must get a feed of your blog!
So which one of these is you then?
