Charlie Lyne


Charlie Lyne (born August 15, 1991) is a British film critic and filmmaker, best known for the films Beyond Clueless and Fear Itself.

Lyne established the movie blog Ultra Culture in 2008, at the age of 16. Ultra Culture was known for its chatty style, strong opinions and concise pop cultural commentary.

In 2010, Lyne joined the BBC programme Film 2010. Host Claudia Winkleman approached him using Twitter, saying that she was 'obsessed' with his website and that she would 'bloody kill' for him to be on the show. Lyne left the show after one season.

Lyne's debut film Beyond Clueless premiered at SXSW in 2014.

His second, Fear Itself, debuted on the BBC iPlayer in October 2015.

In 2016, Lyne crowd-funded a 607-minute film of white paint drying on a brick wall to be submitted to the British Board of Film Classification in a protest against censorship and mandatory classification. On 26 January 2016, the film was given a U rating for 'no material likely to offend or harm'.
