WELCOME TO THE TYNESIDE CINEMA’S FILM

Welcome to the autumn issue of Tyneside Cinema’s
Film Guide, and boy, do we have a programme for you!
Everything kicks off in style with a series of special
events as part of the very first Press Play film
festival, and we also say hello to the Affleck boys,
Casey and Ben, who both get their megaphones out to
direct the striking films I’m Still Here and The Town.
Special events in this season include visits from film
critic and now filmmaker Mark Cousins, music legend
and ex-Banshee (as in Siouxie) Steven Severin, and
the return of the Metropolitan Opera via satellite.
Finally, if you’ve always fancied becoming a member
of our Friends scheme, then now’s your chance
because until Thursday 11th November new Friends
can sign up for just £15 in our autumn sale!

THE FACTORY @ THE TYNESIDE
PICKIN’ FLICKS
ARE YOU THE NEXT RIDLEY SCOTT?
EVERY OTHER MONDAY, 5-6.30PM
11 & 25 OCTOBER, 8 NOVEMBER
Pickin’ Flicks is the Tyneside’s film
programming club for young people. We
aim to give you a unique insight into the
world of film exhibition and distribution,
the chance to watch and talk about any
sort of film from exclusive new releases
to stone-cold classics, and even the
opportunity to programme films into
the Tyneside’s screens!
Northern Stars is our academy for
budding young filmmakers and is
open to 15-18 year-olds across the
North East. We’ll give you access to
equipment, space and the support of
some of the very best professionals
in the region, who will give you all the
help you need to write, shoot, edit and
produce your own short film.
In this brochure you’ll find six films
each picked by a member of our
current Pickin’ Flicks crew (shown
above at the Edinburgh International
Film Festival), and we thoroughly
recommend you check out their
fantastic choices starting with
Napoleon Dynamite on page 18.
The Academy takes place from January
to May and includes a residential
Film Camp. There are only seventeen
places available, so to get in, you need
commitment, bags of enthusiasm and
to show us some real potential.
The Factory is a new space for young
people aged 14-19 to meet and get
involved in making film, web and
technology content. Since the
Factory’s opening in September,
young people have been tinkering
with video cameras, producing short
films, learning stop motion animation
and brushing up on Photoshop skills.
With loads of high-tech equipment
and experts on hand to help get you
going this is the place to learn about
anything from film and animation to
motion graphics and anything in
between. Best of all, the Factory is
absolutely FREE to attend. So come
along one Monday at 5.00pm and
see what you end up creating!

Dir. Tomm Moore. France, Belgium & Ireland 2009. 1hr 19mins.
In an age of computer animation dominating the film industry, The Secret of Kells
is a gorgeous Oscar-nominated throwback to how animation used to be.
It’s the imaginative story behind the creation of the real life medieval illuminated
manuscript, the Book of Kells and the story follows Brendan, a young boy living in
a glum outpost, constantly reinforcing itself against the ever-present threat of
barbarian invasion. One day he ventures into the surrounding enchanted forest,
where he meets the beautiful fairy-like Aisling, who helps him in his quest to
make the right inks to complete the Book of Kells.
If ever there was a film that captivates adults and children alike, this is it.
Tickets: £4.00/£3.00
“With its jewel-bright colors and intricate use of lines,
the result is absolutely luscious to behold.” Variety

between television formats and the feature film.

Using Christophe Barratier’s Les choristes (2004)
(cert 12A) as a focus text, this event addresses
contemporary French culture and society.
The film will also be used as a basis for speaking
and listening exercises, discussion and role-play,
providing loads of opportunities to get your
students talking French! Resources are provided
for both pre-and post-event activities.
We are planning future study days for students of
Spanish and German. If you would further details
please contact Mike Tait via

Travel through time…
Silver Screen is Tyneside Cinema’s
daytime film club for the over 60s.
Members get tickets for these special
shows for just £3.75, including
refreshments and an introduction to
the film.
Imagine a world before the internet,
before TV and when newspapers barely
had any pictures printed in them.
Back in the 1930s a phenomenon swept
the UK as News Theatres were set up to
show newsreel films to the public.
People flocked to these cinemas to see
world events as moving images for the
very first time. The Tyneside Cinema
was originally built as Newcastle’s
News Theatre in 1937 and today is the
finest surviving newsreel cinema in
Britain. Every day of the week our
permanent exhibition describes the
history of the building and how the
news was filmed and screened in the
days of the newsreels.
Membership is FREE. Sign up today,
just call 0845 217 9909 or email
[email protected].
Silver Screen members get discounts
in the Tyneside Coffee Rooms too
(available on day of show only)!
Silver Screen frequently sells out in
advance, so we strongly recommend
advance booking.

1hr 18mins.
Dir. Paul Andrew Williams. UK 2010.
1hr 17mins.
Paul Dano and Kevin Kline star in this
stylish, strange and dazzling comedy
of manners telling the tale of Lewis,
an eccentric shy young man who moves
to New York, only to be taken under the
wing of an even more eccentric older
man – an escort for the wealthy
widows of Manhattan high society.
Adapted from the novel by Jonathan
Ames, The Extra Man boasts one of
Kevin Kline’s funniest ever
performances.
Taking a lead from the competitive,
creative community of the Dogme
movement, the Lars Von Trier-led
Advance Party imposes new rules on its
filmmakers, involving the use of a pool
of pre-determined characters, played by
the same actors in all the films. They
must also all shoot on digital, on
location in Glasgow, and in six weeks.
Alfred (James Cosmo) is 64. After a
somewhat misspent life, he’s lost touch
with his family and a threat to his
health makes him realise he wants to
make amends. The more he tries to do
right, the more he does wrong, and as
his past comes back to haunt him, he is
forced to face up to what his life means
to him. Supplied with a sublime script,
the cast take it and run, barely stopping
to catch a breath. Don’t miss.
London To Brighton director Paul
Andrew Williams returns with another
brilliantly blistering film. Middle class
couple Mike and Christine are settling
in for an ordinary evening complete
with tv, wine and bickering. When the
doorbell rings they’re greeted by a
group of local hoodlums looking for
their son, Sebastian, who apparently
ripped them off in a drug deal. The boys
are prepared to take up camp until he
returns, resulting in raw, revealing and
nerve-splittingly tense drama.
Tickets: £7.50/£6.50 concessions

After nabbing the screenwriting and
jury prizes at this year’s Sundance
and Berlin film festivals, this cracking
thriller comes to the Tyneside. 17-yearold Ree sets out to track down her
junkie father, who put their house up
for his bail bond and then disappeared.
If she fails, Ree, her mentally ill mother
and the rest of her family will be turned
out into the Ozark woods. Ree’s search
takes our hard-nosed heroine face-toface with small-time crooks, her
mysterious (and suspicious) extended
family and into danger and despair as
she’s plunged deeper and deeper into
her desperate quest. An astounding and
haunting film featuring an incredible,
star-making performance from Jennifer
Lawrence. Not to be missed!
Oscar nominated actor Casey Affleck
(The Killer Inside Me, Gone Baby
Gone) has his first stab at directing
with this striking documentary about
acclaimed actor Joaquin Phoenix (Walk
The Line) that may or may not be one
elaborate hoax. Two years ago Phoenix
announced that he was quitting his
successful acting career to focus on
becoming a hip-hop star. Since then
Affleck has followed him around
documenting everything, from odd
interviews on US talk shows to an on
stage meltdown during his debut
performance, all the while keeping up
the pretence that this is a ‘serious’
film. Be it documentary or
mockumentary, I’m Still Here is an
intriguing film that will either give you
an amazing insight into Phoenix’s
tumultuous year or it’s a ticket to this
year’s best practical joke.
The talk of the Edinburgh Film Festival
this year, north east production
company Ipso Facto Films’ fantastic
SoulBoy is taking the UK by storm and
is a brilliant coming-of-age tale with
an ace turn from rising star Martin
Compston (The Disappearance Of Alice
Creed) as Joe, a country boy with an
eye for the ladies stuck in a rural
village in the 1970s with nothing to do
and nowhere to go. He’s in a rut, but
when he meets hairdresser Jane, who’s
into the Northern Soul movement in a
big way, Joe decides to bluff his way
into the scene….

THE TOWN (15)
Dir. Adam Green. USA 2010. 1hr 33mins.
Dir. Ben Affleck. USA 2010. 2hrs 5mins.
Late night chills in this brilliant indie
suspenser. Ever wondered what would
happen if you were accidentally locked
in somewhere after closing? Well
wonder no more, as this is precisely
what happens to three American teens
in Frozen. But they’re not stuck the
night at school, or in the shopping mall:
it’s a ski lift, half way up a mountain,
for a week. With hypothermia and
frostbite kicking in rapidly, the trio find
themselves making some tough
decisions for survival – and that there’s
more to brave on the mountain than
just the elements.
From one Affleck to another, as brother
Ben follows up his blinding debut
feature Gone Baby Gone with another
acclaimed and powerful thriller based
on Chuck Hogan’s award winning novel,
Prince of Thieves. Four bank robbers are
planning their next heist in Boston’s
infamous Charlestown district. When
ringleader Doug (Affleck) falls for a
bank manager (Rebecca Hall) who’s
connected to a previous job, he finds
that she’s the one thing separating his
freedom from his capture by gloryhungry FBI agent Adam Frawley (Jon
Hamm, Mad Men). Under Affleck’s
assured direction, the film delivers
twists and thrills in all the right places.
“A nifty little chiller that balances
its cold terrain with an
unexpectedly warm heart.”

CERTIFIED COPY (12A)

Dir. Abbas Kiarostami. France, Italy &

French and Italian with English subtitles.
Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami’s first
European film is an elegant treat.
Starring Juliette Binoche (who won the
Best Actress award at Cannes this
year), it’s the tale of impulsive gallery
owner Elle, who meets British author
James whilst on a Tuscan day trip.
Together the pair decide to pretend to
be a long-suffering couple for the day
and over their trip discuss originality in
art and culture, all the while keeping
the audience guessing as to the true
nature of their relationship. An absolute
delight from start to finish, this is
playful and smart filmmaking (think
Before Sunrise for grown-ups) with a
driving performance from Binoche.

STEPHEN FRY:
WAGNER AND ME (TBC)
SUN 26 SEPTEMBER, 3.00PM
THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE
(FIRST SEQUENCE) (18)
MON 27 – WEDS 29 SEPTEMBER
Dir. Patrick McGrady. UK, Switzerland,
Russia & Germany 2010. Running time
TBC.
Dir. Tom Six. Netherlands 2009.
1hr 32mins. In English, German and
Japanese with English subtitles.
Stephen Fry explores his passion for the
world’s most controversial composer.
But Stephen is Jewish and lost family in
the Holocaust – can he salvage Richard
Wagner’s music from its dark
associations with anti-Semitism and
Hitler? Our hero’s quest unfolds against
the backdrop of the annual Wagner
Festival in Bayreuth, southern Germany.
Granted unique access to this legendary
arts institution, he eavesdrops on
rehearsals and discovers its backstage
secrets and explores the other
landmarks of Wagner’s extraordinary
career in Germany, Switzerland and
Russia. Animated by Fry’s trademark
wit and intelligence, and featuring a
soundtrack of Wagner’s revolutionary
music, this is a fantastic introduction to
the life and legacy of one of history’s
great geniuses, and required viewing for
anyone who already loves
Wagner’s work.
Yep, its back! After the hugely popular
screenings in August proved there are
definitely quite a few twisted minds out
there in the North East, we’ve decided
to bring back The Human Centipede to
give any other curious cinemagoers the
chance to find out why you don’t want
to be the middle! When two American
girls find themselves stranded in
Germany, they seek help from local
resident Dr. Heiter. Little do they know
that he’s a deranged surgeon who plans
to use them as part of an horrific
operation. Grotesque, gruesome and a
little bit tongue in cheek (pardon the
pun) The Human Centipede does
exactly what it says on the tin, and if
that doesn’t put you off then you’re
clearly meant to see this freaky,
fantastic film.
NAPOLEON DYNAMITE (PG)
TUES 28 SEPTEMBER, 6.00PM
Dir. Jared Hess. USA 2004. 1hr 35mins.
Dude… Napoleon Dynamite is a white
kid in Idaho with an afro haircut,
glasses and an unpredictable and lowkey personality. In this unique High
School film, Napoleon tries to help his
best friend win the class presidency
while he must deal with his bizarre
family life back home.
Pickin’ Flicks programmer Ben says:
The thing I loved about Napoleon
Dynamite was that it wasn’t trying
to be a deep film with a well
structured plot. Instead it was
purely about the characters and the
audience’s journey with Napoleon in
this whacky, different, ‘out of the
box’ High School film.
Special ticket price of £4 for 15-18

MADE IN DAGENHAM (15)
STARTS FRI 1 OCTOBER
Dir. Nigel Cole. UK 2010. 1hr 52mins.
Based on the 1968 strikes for equal pay
at Dagenham’s Ford cars factory, this
ace true story flies the flag for women’s
rights via a cracking script and a great
cast. Sally Hawkins (from Mike Leigh’s
Happy-go-Lucky) is Rita, the firebrand
who gets a group of feisty female
factory workers campaigning for equal
pay, taking their fight from the factory
floor to their male-dominated trade
union, to the national press and
beyond. Also starring Miranda
Richardson and Bob Hoskins, Made In
Dagenham is a glorious time-capsule
for anyone who lived through the 60s
and an undeniable slice of historic fun
for anyone who hasn’t. A must-see.
POLICE, ADJECTIVE (12A)
Politist, adjectiv.
Dir. Corneliu Porumboiu. Romania 2009.
1hr 55mins. In Romanian with English
subtitles.
Winner of the Jury award at the 2009
Cannes Film Festival, this Kafka-esque
Romanian crime drama is a wonderfully
inventive, compelling and surprisingly
funny story about a police officer facing
a battle of wills between his duty and
his conscience. Cristi is a young cop
who refuses to arrest a teenager
suspected of dealing drugs in school
because he fears a prison sentence
will ruin the boy’s life. Pressed by his
dictionary obsessed captain to close the
case with a quick arrest, Cristi doggedly
searches for evidence that will help
prove the boy’s innocence. A gripping
film that replaces the usual clichés of
the genre for something far more
profound, and much more rewarding.
“Complex, intellectually rigorous
and yet incredibly enjoyable on
multiple levels” Little White Lies

FIGHT CLUB (18)
Dir. David Fincher. USA 1999. 2hrs 19mins.
With David Fincher’s The Social
Network due out it’s about time we
dusted off his electrifying masterpiece
Fight Club for a brutal Cult Classic
screening. Brad Pitt and Ed Norton trade
blows in what is essentially a story
about men finding themselves by
beating the merry heck out of each
other. Fight Club is a bruising, bloody
film that remains, over ten years since
its release, innovative and unforgettable
right to its amazing climax. Norton is
brilliant, and Brad Pitt defined himself
for a generation with his turn as the
charismatic and volatile Tyler Durden.

Gilbert (Johnny Depp) is the man of the

Dir. Sebastian Silva. Chile & Mexico
2009. 1hr 36mins. In Spanish with
English subtitles.
Founder member of Siouxie and the
Banshees performs LIVE at the Tyneside
with this incredible show. Told in four
episodes, Jean Cocteau’s influential film
sees an unnamed artist transported
through a mirror into another dimension.
Live and in person, musical legend
Steven Severin here presents an avantgarde musical event around the film,
steeped in the darkness and light of the
seductively surreal images on screen.
Steven Severin formed Siouxie And The
Banshees along with Siouxie Sioux in
1976. Since the mid-nineties, he has
created solo albums, movie soundtracks,
written as a journalist, created a
collection of erotic prose/poetry and
compositions to accompany silent film.
He has also collaborated on projects
with Sid Vicious, Robert Smith of The
Cure and graphic novelist Alan Moore.
Packed with sly humour, this fantastic
film from South America is the story of
Raquel (Catalina Saavedra), a middle
aged woman who has worked for the
same family for over half her life.
The repetition and strain of Raquel’s
life and work has made her bitter and
more and more dependent upon
medication to get her through her days,
and when her employer Pilar decides to
get Raquel some help, a power struggle
with a succession of new maids ensues.
As Raquel tries to define her place, she
must learn exactly what her role in the
family – and her own life - is….

this is impeccable and compelling.”

Dir. Oliver Stone. USA 2010. 2hrs 13mins.
Dirs. Stéphane Aubier & Vincet Patar.
Belgium, Luxembourg & France 2010. 1hr
17mins. In French with English subtitles.
Gordon Gekko, the man who believed
that greed was good, finally returns 23
years after Michael Douglas bagged an
Academy Award for his portrayal of one
of the screen’s most notorious villains.
Emerging from a lengthy prison stint,
Gekko finds himself outside of a world
he once dominated, and looking to
repair his damaged relationship with
his daughter Winnie (Carey Mulligan,
An Education), he forms an alliance
with her fiancé Jacob (Shia LaBoeuf)
and sets out to help him get revenge
on Bretton James (Josh Brolin,
No Country For Old Men), the man
Jacob blames for his mentor’s death.
A tremendously entertaining film that
will not only please fans of the original
but also introduce a whole new
generation to the brilliance of Gekko.
“Michael Douglas is still terrific.”

Get ready for possibly the greatest

Called Panic begins with Cowboy and
Indian’s plan to surprise Horse with a
homemade birthday gift, but the plan
backfires and destroys Horse’s house –
and so a hilarious panic-fuelled
adventure across the land ensues.
Shot in stop motion and based on the
Belgian-French-Luxembourg-British cult

LIVE SATELLITE BROADCAST, FROM
THE THEATRE ROYAL PLYMOUTH
THUR 14 OCTOBER, 7.00PM
Pickin’ Flicks programmer Hannah says:
Although La Haine‘s content is
deeply involving, it is perhaps the
cinegraphic beauty of Kassovitz’s
black and white direction which
truly impacts most. Yet through
real footage of Parisian riots,
references to the Holocaust and
the plot itself shine the greatest
tragedy - prejudice never learns
from its own mistakes.
The National Theatre’s live satellite
broadcast’s return with this Olivier
Award-winning play. A Disappearing
Number weaves together the story of
two love affairs, separated by a century
and a continent. The first happens now.
The second in 1914. It tells of the
heartbreaking collaboration between
the greatest natural mathematician of
the 20th century, Srinivasa Ramanujan,
a penniless Brahmin from Madras in
South India, and his British counterpart,
the brilliant Cambridge don GH Hardy.
With a haunting original score by Nitin

BACK TO THE FUTURE (PG)
Dir. Bernard Rose. UK 2009. 2hrs 1min.
Dir. David Fincher. USA 2010.
Running time TBC.
Dir. Robert Zemeckis. USA 1985.
1hr 56mins.
The year is 2003, and a frustrated
Harvard student has a bright idea.
Seven years and billions of dollars later,
over 500 million of us are now part of
that idea: Facebook. This film tells the
story behind ‘that site’ and its creator
Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg),
following the personal and professional
battles he’s encountered. David Fincher
(Se7en, Fight Club) directs, combining
an incendiary and intriguing story with
strong performances from rising star
Eisenberg (Zombieland) and from Justin
Timberlake as Sean Parker, who
became President of Facebook in 2004.
Whether you love or loathe Facebook,
the story of its origins is definitely one
worth telling – especially in the hands
of Fincher.
GREAT SCOTT! Marty McFly and Doc
Brown are back as the greatest time
travel adventure ever returns to the big
screen with an immaculate new print.
So grab your skateboard, get your flux
capacitor fluxing and get on down to
the Tyneside to see Back To The Future
re-issued to celebrate its 25th
Anniversary, Robert Zemeckis and
Steven Spielberg’s hilarious comedy
adventure has really stood up to the
test of time (sorry folks!), proving just
as exciting, funny and feel-good as it
was back in 1985. It’s only out for a
limited time, so don’t be a butthead,
get along to the Tyneside and have a
real blast from the past!
This cool, cheeky and compelling drama
adapts the biography of elite British
drug smuggler Howard Marks, (Rhys
Ifans, Notting Hill, Enduring Love),
a man who during the mid 1980s, had
forty-three aliases, eighty-nine phone
lines, and twenty five companies
trading throughout the world. The film
follows Marks from his early days as
a dealer during his postgraduate
philosophy course at Oxford, to his
time spent moving large quantities of
hashish into Europe and America in
the equipment of touring rock bands.
A superb stranger-than-fiction story
that’s bolstered by Ifans’ charismatic
central turn and a fantastic supporting
cast that includes Chloe Sevigny and
David Thewlis.
“The movie of the year that also
brilliantly defines the decade”

OVER YOUR CITIES GRASS WILL
GROW (cert TBC)
Dir. Sophie Fiennes. France 2010.
Running time TBC. In French and English
with English subtitles.
Filmmaker Sophie Fiennes delivers an
intimate exploration into the work of
German artist Anselm Kiefer.
Since 2000 Kiefer has lived and worked
in La Ribaute, a derelict silk factory in
the South of France. Here he has
created a sprawling 35 hectare complex
of art installations, including huge
concrete towers, underground tunnels
and pools, woods and caves. Fiennes
captures these gorgeous and imposing
landscapes with ease, and films Kiefer
and his team creating his work.
An atmospheric soundtrack perfectly
complements the visuals, making this
film a feast for eyes and ears.
Contemporary, beguiling and beautiful.
Make sure you catch the Anselm Keifer
exhibition at BALTIC, from 8 October 16 January 2011. Find out more at

Dir. James Nguyen. USA 2008.
1hr 30mins.
Cameron falls for the sunny, naïve
Bianca on his first day at Padua High
School with only one problem, Bianca’s
dad won’t let her date until her sullen
older sister Kat does. Enter Patrick, the
school’s bad boy, on a mission to loosen
Kat up…. Based on Shakespeare’s The
Taming of the Shrew and starring the
late Heath Ledger as Patrick, this
hilarious comedy demonstrates just how
far some guys will go for a date!
Pickin’ Flicks programmer Alice says:
“Clever, witty and hopelessly

You is the ultimate feel good teen
movie-Heath Ledger’s dramatic
rendition of ‘Can’t Take My Eyes Off
You’ cannot fail to raise your
spirits!”

For those of you who like their movies
Room-shaped, here’s the latest trashterpiece that’s taking the world by
storm! Birdemic: Shock and Terror, is a
low-budget, high-concept thriller that
sees boy meet girl, boy fall in love with
girl, and then boy and girl get caught up
in an attack by eagles and vultures on a
small town as nature turns against
man. A brilliant slice of fun (with a
serious eco message at its heart too!),
this love letter to Hitchcock is a mash
up of bad acting, cheap sets and zero
budget special effects. Amazing stuff,
Birdemic is sure to give you a night to
remember – and send you all aflutter!

Dir. Giorgos Lanthimos. Greece 2009. 1hr
27mins. In Greek with English subtitles.
A gripping whodunit from the director
of The Host, this story of a mother
hunting for the killer who framed her
mentally-challenged son is absolutely
must-see cinema.
Mike Tait, Tyneside Cinema Projects
Officer says:
Made in Korea in 2009, but this film
made me think of vintage Hollywood
such as Mildred Pierce and Stella
Dallas. It’s utterly different in style –
with one of the most uniquely
unsettling opening scenes in recent
years – but deals with the eternal
question of just how far a parent might
go to protect their child. It’s gripping,
chilling and – occasionally – laugh-outloud funny. Anyone with a mother
should see it. And wonder….
Two parents, desperate to maintain
their children’s innocence, keep them
confined in the family home. But as the
children’s curiosity about what lies
beyond the walls increases, their father
is forced to take more drastic action to
keep the order.
Steve Drayton, Tyneside Cinema
regular:
Dogtooth is remarkable in that it’s so
bleak, so turn-your-head-away-fromthe-screen violent, yet it’s engaging,
funny and downright brilliant. The black
humour, excellent leaps of imagination
and a superb cast draw you in and the
final denouncement is so shockingly
plausible, which, coupled with an
ambiguous ending keep the characters
living in the mind for hours after.
This film is unlike any I’ve seen.
Uncomfortably brilliant.
AFRICA UNITED (TBC)
Dir. Debs Gardner-Paterson. Rwanda &
South Africa 2010. Running time TBC.
This uplifting film is set to take the
world by storm! Dudu, a quick-witted
and resourceful boy is delighted to
learn his friend Fabrice has been asked
to show off his football skills at the
World Cup Opening Ceremony, so with
the help of Dudu’s older sister Beatrice,
they set off on a 5,000km journey.
As the trio make their way through
Africa they meet others who harbour
the same passion and the motley
troupe steadily grows. Negotiating their
way through different sticky situations
– hilarious and terrifying in turn – the
gang’s bond of friendship grows as they
reach their destination. Adventure,
touches of stark realism and great
moments of fun are all present, and
director Debs Gardner-Paterson delivers
a captivating debut, defining what it
means to be an African child in 2010.

Dir. Jason Berry. UK 2010.
Film: 1hr 34mins.
A must for cycling fans, after our

Tour de France, Chasing Legends takes
viewers on an intense journey through
the most arduous bike race on the

THE ARBOR (15)
CARLOS (15)
STARTS SUN 24 OCTOBER
Dir. Clio Barnard. UK 2010.
1hr 34mins.
Dir. Olivier Assayas. France & Germany
2010. Extended cut: 5hrs 25mins plus
intermission. Feature version: 2hrs
45mins. In French, German, English,
Spanish and Arabic with English subtitles.
This genre-defying film is set in The
Arbor, the area of Bradford where the
late playwright Andrea Dunbar grew up.
Dunbar wrote brutal and telling plays
about life in The Arbor, before her own
life was cut short in 1990. For two
years director Cleo Barnard has been
interviewing people who knew Dunbar,
and then editing the audio over actors
who have perfectly mimed the
interviewees. This footage is mixed with
newly filmed excerpts from Dunbar’s
first play, (titled The Arbor), as acted in
the streets she grew up in. Barnard also
manages to connect with Dunbar’s
daughter Lorraine, 29 (the age Dunbar
was when she died), and explores the
troubled relationship they shared. Truly
insightful and remarkable filmmaking,
and one of the best films of 2010.
This new film from Oliver Assayas
(Irma Vep) is a gripping account of the
story of Venezuelan revolutionary Ilich
Ramirez Sanchez aka Carlos the Jackal,
who founded a worldwide terrorist
group in the mid-70’s. The story
follows Sanchez, played here by the
outstanding Édgar Ramírez (Che – Part
One) as he goes from political idealist
‘fighting for the oppressed people’ to a
mercenary for hire who loses his lust
for revolution. Assayas’ film is richly
rewarding, mixing original news footage
with aggressive action for a superb
analysis of the subject of terrorism in
the twilight of the Cold War era.
On Sunday 24 October at 12.00pm we
screen an extended 5hr 25mins version
of Carlos. The feature length version
opens on Friday 29 October.
THE MAN WHO LOVED YNGVE (15)
Mannen som elsket Yngve
Dir. Stian Kristiansen. Norway 2008.

Set in the late 80s, this Norwegian gem
follows Jarle, your stereotypical teenage
boy who loves punk rock, his friends
and his girlfriend. But his whole life
changes when he falls in love with
Yngve, the new boy in his class, who is
everything he isn’t….
Pickin’ Flicks programmer Beth says:
“This film perfectly captures a
teenager’s identity crisis. It’s fresh,
sweet and laugh out loud funny and
you can’t help but relate to each
character. Not forgetting the
awesome soundtrack from The
Buzzcocks, The Cure and Joy
Division. What’s not to love?”

Come along if you think you can hack it!
To mark the Newcastle Zombie walk
starting later in the day, we present a
special Halloween show of the greatest
Zombie movie of all time. George
Romero’s satire on consumer culture
is legendary, but cast aside the social
commentary and lap it up for what it is
– a terrifying look at life at the end of
the world seen through the eyes of a
ragtag gang of four survivors who find
solace in the fortress-like out of town
shopping centre. Do not miss this
chance to see Dawn Of The Dead on
the big screen, and if you come as a
zombie you get in for just £3.75!
The most talked-about movie at the
2010 Sundance Film Festival, The Kids
Are All Right is the kind of gloriously
funny, heartfelt and warming film that
will help cheer you up as the winter
blues set in. Academy Award nominees
Annette Bening (American Beauty) and
Julianne Moore (A Single Man) are Nic
and Jules, a married couple with two
teenage children Joni and Laser (Alice
In Wonderland’s Mia Wasikowska and
Josh Hutcherson). But when Joni brings
her and Laser’s biological father or ‘biodad’ Paul (Mark Ruffalo, Shutter
Island) into their lives, life takes a
dramatic turn as family ties are defined,
re-defined and then re-re-defined.
Writer/director Lisa Cholodenko’s film is
a remarkable dramedy, mixing a smart
script with superb performances that
could make it the indie hit of the year.
Hilariously funny, utterly heartfelt,
Withnail is a true national institution.
Richard E. Grant and Paul McGann have
never been better as the two out of
work actors who go on holiday by
mistake to the Lakes and encounter
weather, bulls and Withnail’s predatory
Uncle Monty. Possibly the funniest
British film ever, Withnail has great
actors, spouting the best lines, all
wrapped up in Bruce Robinson’s
amazingly arch story.

TORMENTED (15)
TUES 2 NOVEMBER, 6.00PM
Dir. Jon Wright. UK 2009. 1hr 31mins.
With the tagline ‘Skins meets Scream’
this feature brings a modern twist to the
meaning of the word horror. Asthmatic
nerd Darren seeks revenge after being
bullied by a group of merciless
teenagers. After committing suicide he
rises from the dead and persists on a
murderous vengeance across the ‘ingroup’ of bullies….
Pickin’ Flicks programmer Amanda says:
“With a mix of Shaun Of The Dead
humour and slasher-style gore,
Tormented is an imaginative
comedic horror that keeps you on
the edge of your seat but crying
with laughter at the same time.
A teen-horror must see.”

WE ARE WHAT WE ARE (Cert TBC)
Somos Lo Que Hay
Dir. Jorge Michel Grau. Mexico 2010.
Running time TBC.
A special Day Of The Dead premiere. You
may not expect the words ‘moving’, and
‘cannibal film’ to fit in the same
sentence, but they do for this Mexican
horror drama. After a father is killed,
his widow and three children are left
struggling to survive – the father fed his
family on human flesh, which they now
must find and eat themselves in order
to stay alive. Director Grau manages to
create a convincing emotional
attachment to characters that are so far
from the audience’s reality. Since
showing at Cannes this year, it has
been said to do for cannibal films what
Let The Right One In did for vampires.
Do not miss!
ANOTHER YEAR (12A)
STARTS FRI 5 NOVEMBER
Dir. Mike Leigh. UK 2010. 2hrs 10mins.
Award winning director Mike Leigh
(Vera Drake, Happy-Go-Lucky)
delivers another touching and
beautifully nuanced film, that sees him
collaborate once again with his cast of
regulars, including Jim Broadbent
(Life Is Sweet), and Leslie Manville,
Ruth Sheen and Imelda Staunton
(Vera Drake). Lee’s brilliant film divides
one year into four seasonal chapters
following the lives of happily married
couple Tom (Broadbent) and Gerri
(Sheen) as they deal with their morose,
love-starved friends Mary (Manville)
and Ken, meeting their son’s new
girlfriend and the tumultuous funeral
of a family member. Another Year is a
heartwarming film and one of Leigh’s
best pieces of work to date.
“A brilliant ensemble and a
resonant script make Another Year
one of Mike Leigh’s best films.”

LET THE RIGHT ONE IN (15)
Låt den rätte komma in
Dir. Thomas Alfredson. Sweden 2008.
1hr 55mins. In Swedish with English

The original genre–smashing film is the
stuff top ten lists are made of. Oskar is
a 12-year-old Stockholm outcast who
dreams of taking revenge on the bullies
who frequently pick on him. When he
befriends Elli, a pale, wan girl from out
of town, he may have found not only his
first true friend, but also an ally and his
soulmate. Elli is no ordinary girl though:
she must keep her white skin out of the
sunlight, she can perform inhuman
physical feats… and she has a thirst
for blood.

The Tyneside Bar has attracted some of
the North East’s best poetry slammers,
and now we are giving everyone the
chance to take part in our Dead Poets
Slam. All you need to do is bring along
five poems by your favourite deceased
poet.
Arriving in UK cinemas with all the
baggage of a Cannes bow that amazed
and incensed, Irreversible director
Gaspar Noe’s audacious and dazzling
psychedelic masterpiece will be debated
for years to come. Set in Tokyo, it focuses
on Oscar (Nathaniel Brown), a drug
dealer who gets killed by the police, but
who watches over his sister (Paz de la
Huerta) as a ghost after his death. Noe’s
in absolute control and goes where other
films wouldn’t dare, delving into Oscar’s
soul and travelling with him as he soars
above Tokyo’s neon streets, and through
his past to revisit moments and lurch
towards redemption. Absolutely
unforgettable, and utterly unmissable.

film as it shows what it is to go
on an adventure with your friends
to paradise, whilst exploring the
issues of drugs and relationships.
The sheer fact it is directed by
Danny Boyle makes this film even
more unmissable.”
