At the Emmy's
Looking sober but gratified, "The Girl in the Cafe" producer Hilary Bevan Jones spoke backstage on behalf of fellow honoree Richard Curtis, who was not present to accept his award for writing the HBO made-for. "The reason (Curtis) wrote this film was to draw people's attention to the fact that in this world of plenty, 20,000 people are still dying every day of extreme poverty," she said of the telepic, about the G8 summit in Iceland in 2005. "I'm so grateful that the American audience has recognized this film, and hope they will recognize why we made it as well."
Ms Bevan Jones is chairman of BAFTA and at that the preeminent first woman to chair the British Academy of Film and Television Arts in its 60-year history.
She is also keen to "break down the glass wall between film and television".
Of course they should be celebrated individually, but one is not better than the other."
"I just think there should be more mutual respect."
