Julie Christie Set for Holf Festival
By: Tyler Peterson
Iconic British actor Julie Christie has confirmed that she will appear at this year's Holt Festival in North Norfolk.
She will appear alongside her friend Sir John Hurt in a programme of readings from the "Why Grown Men Cry" collection edited by father and son team Anthony and Ben Holden on Wednesday 22 July at 4pm at The Lawns Hotel, Holt. Julie will read poems by Pablo Neruda of whom she is very fond. Sir John is taking part in the event, despite his recent announcement that he is receiving treatment for pancreatic cancer. Ms Christie, who has known Sir John for many years, told festival artistic director Charles Pugh that she was not surprised he was going ahead with the commitment, saying: "He always was a trooper." Her husband, former Guardian crime correspondent and author Duncan Campbell is also appearing at the Festival. On Tuesday 21 July he is presenting a talk at the Festival titled 'Why is crime so glamorous', examining our enduring fascination with crime, from Dick Turpin to the recent Hatton Garden heist.Get Broadway News on WhatsApp
