British artist and living legend Andrew Logan, loved the world over by celebrities and misfits alike, takes us under his glittering wing and inside his outrageous, anarchic and spectacular costume pageant: the Alternative Miss World Show. As the Shows master of ceremonies and ringmaster, Logan is the high priest of an esteemed congregation. He describes the Show as his most important artwork; a fabulous living sculpture that spans forty years of arts and culture. Using live observational camera, archive and exuberant animation, this documentary charts the mounting of the 2009 Show, interwoven with its history, the rise, fall and rediscovery, of both the event and the artist at its center.
Leave your thoughts about The British Guide to Showing Off.
| Eye for FilmAmber WilkinsonJes Benstock's documentary is a big glittery hug of a celebration. |
| CineVueHolly CooperIt never feels like a private party for the elite and well-connected, Benstock emphasising that it is an inclusive, non-judgemental space in which anyone can participate. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerImpressively directed and nicely structured, this is an engaging and enjoyable documentary that serves as an affectionate celebration of one of Britain's most colourful characters. |
| Financial TimesNigel AndrewsAs a cherishable example of alternative British culture, it makes you wonder why this isn't the orthodoxy while the rest of the rubbish that sometimes passes for Anglo-Saxon fun and entertainment is demoted to the counterculture. |
| Shadows on the WallRich ClineLike Logan's work, it's entertaining while also making an important point. |
| Observer (UK)Philip FrenchI enjoyed the film, but I cannot describe the lengths I'd go to or the excuses I'd offer to avoid attending one of these entertainments. |

| Total FilmKevin HarleyThe film doesn't go deep on politics, but Logan's gregarious presence provides plentiful pleasures in this heartfelt homage to a warm, wily art-world one-off. |
| Empire MagazineEve BarlowBenstock's sideways look at the world of alternative fashion is funny, fabulous and fittingly batty. |
| Screen-SpaceSimon FosterThe gay abandon of the OTT event is covered extensively, to the point where one begins to feel rather wallflower-ish, like being the only one at the party not taking drugs. |
