Danny Boyle, back in the Closing Slot

Two years ago, Danny Boyle closed the BFI London Film Festival with a little movie you may've heard of - Slumdog Millionaire. Ring any bells?

The Playlist has the news that Boyle will be back in the wrap-up spot, this time with the James Franco vehicle 127 HOURS, the story of climber Aron Ralston who get stuck under a boulder and is forced into extreme measures to survive. Don't remember this story? Brush up on Ralston here (or avoid the spoilers...whatever).

The film hits US theaters November 5, but will land for its world premiere at TIFF; BFI London - with Boyle and Franco in attendance - will be its European preem.
