Established in 1947, the festival can lay claim to being both the longest running film festival in the world and one of the most successful. The EIFF has acquired a reputation for showcasing an acclaimed mix of international hits and home-grown gems: Oscar-nominated crowd-pleaser Billy Elliot premiered here.

Some classics such as "Ryan's Daughter" and "Man of Aran" are missing, as are "The Field" with the inimitable Richard Harris and the rather uneven "Patriot Games" based on Tom Clancy's novel.
