Terminator is back! Set in postapolcalyptic 2018, John Connor is

Bruno (tbc mins) cert tbc
The latest, hilarious creation
from the man who brought
Borat into the world.
Bruno (one name, like
Madonna) is on a mission: to
reveal the true beauty of
fashion. After all, fashion saves
a lot more lives than doctors?
Right? The gorgeous and opinionated voice of Austrian
youth TV has sharpened his catwalk claws and is
searching for new fashion victims among the air-kissed
airheads.
Dressed to kill, he’s asking the people that count the
questions that matter. So who’s hot and who’s not.
Who’s ‘Vassup’ and who’s ‘Ich don’t think so’? And who
else agrees that Osama Bin Laden is just ze best dressed
guy around right now?

Pierrot Le Fou (110mins)
cert tbc
Director: Jean-Luc Godard
Starring: Anna Karina, Jean-Paul
Belrmondo. 1965.
Jean-Luc Godard called this film
the story of the 'last romantic
couple'. The film is also, however,
a spectacular farewell to the style
and spirit of the Nouvelle Vague.
On impulse Ferdinand abandons his wife and child to
take off with Marianne, an old flame, on a crazy and
tragic adventure involving fast cars, gangsters and a
Mediterranean idyll. This is a truly romantic film but one
which, in the best romantic tradition, is also deeply
self-aware and at times self-mocking.

Notorious (102 mins) cert U
Director: Alfred Hitchcock.
Starring: Ingrid Bergman, Cary Grant,
Claud Rains and Louis Calhern. 1946.
Notorious is one of Hitchcock’s
most darkly romantic, disturbing and suspense laden
thrillers. Ingrid Bergman is magnificent as the tough yet
vulnerable Alicia Huberman, whose father is sentenced to
death for treason. This leaves her determined to prove her
patriotism and atone for this guilt. Cary Grant is
devastating as debonair US agent Steven Devlin, who’s
torn between his love for Alicia and his distrust of her.
Alicia is enlisted to seduce Alex Sebastian (Claude Rains),
as sophisticated German expatriate, to find out about his
suspected Nazi affiliations. Madly impassioned by Alicia,
Sebastian even marries her against the wishes of his
tyrannical mother (Leopoldine Konstantin), and before long
Alicia, Steven and Alex are entangled in a web of
constrained desire and cruel deceit.

Badlands (94mins) cert 15
Director: Terrence Malicl
Starring: Martin Sheen, Sissy
Spacek, Warren Oates. 1973.
One of the most striking
cinematic debuts of all time, Terrence Malick’s Badlands is set
in a sleepy South Dakota town in the late 1950s. Kit (Martin
Sheen), a 25 year old garbage collector, meets Holly (Sissy
Spacek), a bored high-school student ten years his junior.
Struck by Kit’s resemblance to James Dean, Holly not only
defies her father (Warren Oates) by starting a relationship
with him, but stands by as Kit subsequently shoots her
father. What ensues is a powerful and disturbing tale of
young lovers on the run.

Sleep Furiously
(94mins) cert U
Director: Gideon Koppel
Sleep Furiously was
premiered at the
Edinburgh Film Festival in June, with a glowing
reputation already well established, as it had been
championed by esteemed British critics, filmmakers and
former Moviedrome presenters Alex Cox and Mark
Cousins.
Cox described the film as ‘visually remarkable’, while
Cousins declared it as ‘pure cinema: visually alert,
brilliant musically, and moving’.
The film documents the small farming community in midWales, where Koppel grew up and its main theme is the
degeneration of traditional rural communities and the
impact of industrialisation on social harmony.
The film surprises through its dedication to cinematic
artistry. Through his own cinematography Koppel
emphasises the importance of landscape, both to the
story and the community. The imagery is hauntingly
accompanied by a soundtrack from the Aphex Twin, the
first time Richard James gave permission for his music to
be used for an entire feature soundtrack.

GAZWRX: The Films of Jeff Keen (tbc mins)
cert tbc Director: Jeff Keen
Jeff Keen's unique and imaginative filmmaking has
outlived the various scenes in which it thrived: the sixties
counter-culture, punk and beyond. Making work of
immediate power and raw intensity on a range of film
stocks, this WW2 veteran, self-taught artist and pioneer
of radical British independent filmmaking continues to
defy categorisation. The 12 short films in this programme,
made between 1960 and 1993, reveal the astonishingly
tireless talent of a unique individual not afraid to grapple
with sex and war, or to experiment with visceral
soundtracks and brutal animation techniques. Truly
inspired and inspiring, this programme is a testament to
the irrepressible force that is Jeff Keen.
