THE LOVELY BONES ROYAL FILM PERFORMANCE AND WORLD PREMIERE
Leicester Square, as their Royal Highnesses The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall braved the elements to join Academy Award® winners Peter Jackson and Susan Sarandon for the Royal Film Performance and World Premiere of THE LOVELY BONES, adapted from the critically acclaimed best-selling novel by Alice Sebold.
Despite the rain, the younger stars of the film took time to sign autographs and pose for photographs with the excited fans. Saoirse Ronan, Rose McIver, Caroline Dando and Reece Ritchie were joined on the carpet by British celebrities including Stephen Fry, Andy Serkis and Chris Eubank, in anticipation of a first glimpse of the eagerly awaited film. All of the proceeds from the evening benefited the film industry charity The Cinema and Television Benevolent Fund.
THE LOVELY BONES is the eagerly awaited film adaptation of the critically acclaimed best-selling novel by Alice Sebold. The film centres on a young girl who has been murdered and watches over her family, and her killer, from heaven - she must weigh her desire for vengeance against her desire for her family to heal.
THE LOVELY BONES is released by Paramount Pictures (UK) and will open in the UK & Ireland on January 29, 2010.
