Alliotts sponsors London launch of the film ‘Eddie Cochran: Don’t Forget Me’

Alliotts welcomes guests to exclusive screening at launch of Cine International Film Festival

10 Sep 2026

As part of our sponsorship of the Cine International Film Festival, a celebration of independent filmmaking, we were delighted to invite clients, media contacts and friends of Alliotts to attend the launch of the festival.

Guests joined us for the London theatrical release of Eddie Cochran: Don’t Forget Me, the first documentary to explore the life and legacy of the inspirational rock ’n’ roll artist, whose remarkable career was cut short when he died at just 21 years old.

What made the film particularly special was that it marked the first time Eddie Cochran’s family had given their support and permission for a film to be made about his life. The result is a thoughtfully researched and expertly produced documentary that offers a fascinating insight into both the artist and the person behind the music.

The screening was held at the Vue Piccadilly and was followed by an after-party celebration at the Sanctum Soho. A packed and enjoyable evening, there was a buzz in the room as guests shared their thoughts on the film, caught up with familiar faces, and made new connections in one of London’s more distinctive venues.

The film has already received some fantastic reviews, reflecting both the quality of the production and the enduring influence of Eddie Cochran’s timeless talent on generations of musicians and music fans.
