HELLO! ARE YOU INTERESTED IN WORKING TOGETHER?
Almost Ginger was born from a passion for cinema and adventure and is run by me, Rebecca Sharp. I studied film at University and have always found comfort and inspiration in the stories told on the silver screen. But as I got older, films no longer satisfied my craving for wanderlust. I’m incapable of watching characters on-screen travel to far-flung destinations and have amazing adventures without picturing myself there. If Bilbo Baggins is going on an adventure, then I want to go too!
After graduating in 2014, I launched Almost Ginger to document my travels in the hopes that I could inspire other film fans to get off the sofa and on the road in search of their own film-inspired adventures. So far, I’ve joined Ned Stark from Game of Thrones on King’s Landing in Malta, snuck onto Scaramanga’s hideaway on James Bond Island in Thailand and rubbed shoulders with Elle Fanning and Julianne Moore at the Cannes Film Festival. I’m just a regular woman from Northwest England – If I can do it, so can they. And I’m here to show my readers exactly how with entertaining, incredibly detailed and helpful and relatable content on Almost Ginger.

Hey Rebecca – I’m an American who will be going to Cannes [film festival] for the first time this year. I’ve been using your site religiously — I had the idea of going and just trying to bum around for tickets, but your blog taught me about the cinephile accreditation and, lo and behold, my request for one was granted. Thanks for all the info you’ve helped to share. You’ve made a dream of mine a reality. – Evan
Via Cannes Film Festival: How to see films with a Cinephile Badge…
Dear Rebecca, thanks you so much for this post – I just got accepted for a Cannes Cinephile accreditation with my friend and although we are both french, it is very hard to find out which movies we’ll be able to watch with our badges! Your blog and this post in particular are by far the most helpful I’ve ran into 🙂
