  • In this episode, GG Hawkins of No Film School sits down with Ben Roberts, Chief Executive of the British Film Institute (BFI), for a powerful conversation on the cultural and creative necessity of film preservation. As the BFI celebrates the 90th anniversary of its National Archive and launches its new BFI America initiative, Roberts shares deep insights into the archival process, global collaboration, and the evolving role of film as both art and artifact. From rediscovering rare prints to the vital importance of archiving even digital work, this episode offers an inspiring call to action for filmmakers and cinephiles alike. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guest Ben Roberts discuss... Why film preservation matters more than ever in the digital age The significance of BFI’s National Archive turning 90 Rare film prints like Jaws and Mildred Pierce hidden in BFI’s vaults How the BFI selects films for restoration and the stories behind those choices The launch of BFI America and its goals for international collaboration Practical advice for emerging filmmakers attending international markets like Cannes or Berlin Why preserving your own creative process is as important as the work itself Memorable Quotes: "The archive is full of treasures." "Just make stuff, practice, practice, practice, without feeling like this is going to be your big break." "Keep everything. Keep your emails, keep notes... One day when you're the greatest filmmaker on the planet, we will want it all." "You’ve got to think about the global industry and the global culture, because to get stuff made, there are so many ways to collaborate internationally."
