Description

This is a black and white photo of the English actor Sally Thomsett in conversation with unidentified companions. They appear to be at a drinks reception which, as we know from a similar item in the archive, was also attended by fellow English actors Shane Briant, Virginia Wetherell and Vicki Coomber. Thomsett, on the far left with a liqueur glass in hand, looks on as the others chat. Born in 1950 she would have been around 22 years old in this picture. She had just finished the film Straw Dogs (Sam Peckinpah, 1971) starring Dustin Hoffman, but was best known for her role, playing the part of a young girl, in the British drama film The Railway Children (1970) written and directed by Lionel Jeffries. Jeffries (1926-2010) came to the film festival in 1964 and an image of him can be seen in the archive.
