Amanda Knox's film is banned from being shown in London cinema in 11th-hour blow

By INDERDEEP BAINS, CHIEF NEWS CORRESPONDENT Published: 00:28, 22 April 2026 | Updated: 00:28, 22 April 2026 Amanda Knox's UK visit was thrown into turmoil just hours before she was due on stage last night – after it was ruled her documentary could not be shown at a London cinema. The American was supposed to be presenting a screening of Mouth Of The Wolf about the murder of her British university roommate, Meredith Kercher. But ticket-holders for the show at Greenwich Picturehouse in south London were emailed shortly before the 6.45pm start time and told the film did not have the necessary rating. Organisers from the wrongful-conviction charity Innocence Project London said Ms Knox, 38, and her husband, Christopher Robinson, would instead take questions from the audience, followed by a book signing. An email, via ticketing website Eventbrite, read: 'Due to the documentary not having a British Board of Film Classification, it cannot be screened to a public audience.' A source at the venue said: 'It's a real shame the event could not happen as advertised, but at least it hasn't been cancelled – just moved to a different format.' It is due to take place again tonight. It was a major blow to Ms Knox, who has been accused of cashing in on Ms Kersher's death. She was twice acquitted of the Leeds University student's 2007 murder in Italy. Tour: Amanda Knox with husband Christopher Robinson Since arriving in London, Ms Knox has shared a series of posts on social media and appeared on Good Morning Britain to plug her podcast on nurse Lucy Letby, whose conviction she claims is unsafe. Though she has restyled herself as a campaigner for victims of miscarriages of justice, she was accused of hypocrisy after the man she falsely claimed had murdered Ms Kercher, 21, revealed she still has not paid him court-ordered damages. Patrick Lumumba, now 56, saw his life destroyed by her accusations. Yesterday he said: 'Amanda hasn't paid me anything. How can she expect to help other alleged victims of miscarriages of justice if she doesn't start by compensating me, her victim?' His lawyer, Carlo Pacelli, stated Ms Knox was ordered to pay Mr Lumumba's legal costs and provisional compensation, for a total amount of more than £70,000. He added: 'To date, Knox has not paid Patrick anything.' Bar owner Mr Lumumba, who spent two weeks in custody, added: 'Meredith was the real victim yet Amanda is set to make a huge amount of money from what happened.' The Kerchers' lawyer, Francesco Maresca, said about Ms Knox: 'Every time she speaks, she reopens the tragedy of what happened to Meredith. It really hurts the family. Why doesn't she respect her memory and keep quiet?' Ms Knox was asked to comment. No comments have so far been submitted.
