From Poirot’s moustache to signed pages from the script of Star Wars: Rogue One , an upcoming auction at the Fastnet Film Festival is a potential treasure trove for film buffs.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is not pleased with plans to auction off 15 Oscar statuettes from such films as 'Citizen Kane', 'Wuthering Heights' and 'Little Women'.

Orson Welles’s Oscar for Citizen Kane, which was expected to fetch up to €350,000 at auction, has been withdrawn from sale after the Academy invoked its right to buy it back for a dollar.
