Introduction
SUFFRAGETTE
SPECTRE
DANCELIVE
Is this a dagger I see before me? No it’s our October brochure and something wicked this way
comes… and I mean “wicked” in the way the kids of today use it to mean cool and awesome, as
we have a fantastic line up this month.
As the first paragraph hinted at, we kick off October with Justin Kurzel’s brash and bloody
adaptation of Macbeth starring Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard.
We keep the Shakespearean theme going with Bill - from the makers of Horrible Histories which examines the ‘lost years’ between starting out in Stratford-upon-Avon and becoming the
legendary playwright of London.
Alas poor Yorick, our NT Live screening of Benedict Cumberbatch as Hamlet on Thu 15 Oct is
nearly sold out, but we have added an encore performance on Sun 22 Nov.
Festival participation is strong this month, with us taking part in Luminate, Scotland Loves Anime
and DanceLive - which should get some hips shaking!
The bar staff are busy shaking something else as they practise their vodka martinis for the arrival
of the new James Bond film, SPECTRE, on 26 Oct.
Fresh from opening this year’s BFI London Film Festival, Carey Mulligan and Meryl Streep star in
Suffragette, which looks at the story of the women behind the early feminist movement.
Thankfully times have changed and speaking of time, I notice on my calendar that we are rapidly
approaching 21 October 2015. This is a red letter day for film fans, as it is the day that Marty
McFly and Doc Brown arrived in the future in Back To The Future Part II - so we are screening the
film on that night to celebrate… now where is my hoverboard?

We’re really keen to encourage your deeper engagement with the great cinema we
screen. We know going to the cinema a lot can be quite expensive, so we’ve devised a
ticket deal to make it cheaper to see films beyond the big new releases.
Here’s how it works: buy a ticket for a film in the left hand column below, and you will
receive a voucher that will entitle you, on handing it in at the Box Office, to 50% off a
full price ticket to any film (or any film in any season) listed in the right hand column.
We’ve marked the films and seasons involved with wee logos to make them easier
to spot (orange for left hand column films, blue for right), and you can also find

Debicki, Paddy Considine.
Fri 2 to Sun 4 Oct
An ambitious Scottish duke is promised the throne by three
mysterious witches, and his murderous coup begins to
consume him.
Shakespeare’s ‘Scottish Play’ returns to our screens
in this highly-anticipated, thrilling and visually striking
adaptation from Justin Kurzel (Snowtown), starring Michael
Fassbender in the titular role and Marion Cotillard as Lady
Macbeth.
Ricki and the Flash
Showing from Fri 2 Oct
Jonathan Demme • USA 2015 • 1h41m • Digital • 12A - Contains
moderate bad language, sex references, drug references
Cast: Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline, Mamie Gummer, Audra McDonald,
Sebastian Stan, Rick Springfield.
‘Ricki’ Rendazzo was once a guitar heroine who dreamt of
rock-and-roll stardom - now, she balances her band’s divebar performances with a supermarket job that barely pays
the bills. But as she returns home to her long-estranged
children and ex-husband, she finds herself face with a
chance of healing old wounds and perhaps even starting
anew.
TANGERINES
Zaza Urushadze • Estonia/Georgia 2013 • 1h29m • Digital
Estonian, Russian and Georgian with English subtitles • cert tbc
Cast: Lembit Ulfsak, Mikheil Meskhi, Giorgi Nakhashidze, Elmo
Nüganen, Raivo Trass.
Set in 1992, during the growing conflict between Georgia
and Abkhazian separatists in the wake of the Soviet
Union’s dissolution, this compassionate story focuses on
two Estonian immigrant farmers who decide to remain
in Georgia long enough to harvest their tangerine crop.
When the fighting arrives at their doorsteps, Ivo (played by
legendary Estonian actor Lembit Ulfsak) along with friend
Margus (Elmo Nüganen), treat two wounded soldiers
from opposite sides. During their extended period of
convalescence under the administration of Ivo, they are
forced not only to confront the reasons that fuel their
hatred for each other, but also the conflict which rages
around them.
A beautifully eloquent statement for peace and the futility
of bloodshed over racial and ethnic division.

THE DANCE OF REALITY

The Dance of Reality
Showing from Fri 2 Oct
La danza de la realidad
Ramin Bahrani • USA 2014 • 1h52m • Digital
15 - Contains strong language, sex references
Cast: Andrew Garfield, Michael Shannon, Laura Dern.
Wed 7 & Thu 8 Oct
When he, his mother and his young son are abruptly
evicted from their Florida home during the real estate crash
of 2008, single father Dennis Nash (Andrew Garfield) - in
a desperate bid to reclaim his house - accepts an offer
to work for the broker who kicked him out (Michael
Shannon). Becoming increasingly successful (and further
entangled) in the ruthless and corrupt real estate business,
Nash is faced with subjecting other families to the
humiliating ordeal that plunged his life into turmoil.
With acclaimed filmmaker Ramin Bahrani at the helm and
compelling performances from his lead actors, 99 Homes is
an intense and urgent drama that holds the greedy few to
account for the damage they inflict on the many.
Alejandro Jodorowsky • Chile/France 2013 • 2h13m • Digital
Spanish with English subtitles • 18 - Contains strong torture
Cast: Brontis Jodorowsky, Pamela Flores, Jeremias Herskovits,

Jodorowsky, Cristobal Jodorowsky.
Produced and directed by legendary filmmaker Alejandro
Jodorowsky (The Holy Mountain, El Topo, Santa Sangre),
The Dance of Reality marks his return to filmmaking after a
break of 23 years.
Born in Tocopilla, a coastal town on the edge of the Chilean
desert, Jodorowsky now returns there to recount his
unhappy and alienated childhood as part of an uprooted
immigrant family. Blending history with metaphor,
mythology and poetry, this intensely personal film reflects
Jodorowsky’s philosophy that reality is a dance created by
our own imaginations.

over three years and including appearances from Chrissie
Hynde, Mick Jones, Lemmy and members of Pink Floyd,
Black Flag, GNR, the Sex Pistols, Blondie, Buzzcocks and

images of dead bodies, strong language
Cast: Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin, Benicio Del Toro, Jon Bernthal.
At the border between the United States and Mexico,
idealistic and determined FBI agent Kate Macy (Emily
Blunt) is enlisted as part of a joint government task force
charged with taking on the cartels that operate between
the nations. As her team work drug bosses against one
another, she quickly finds herself at odds with the ethically
dubious tactics at play.
With cinematography from the great Roger Deakins, Denis
Villeneuve (Enemy, Prisoners) helms this dark, suspenseful
and surprising thriller, further endorsing his credentials as a
skilled and versatile director.
Showing from Fri 9 Oct
Much speculation has been made about William
Shakespeare’s ‘lost years’ - the period between his obscure
beginnings in Stratford-upon-Avon and eventual acclaim
as a London playwright. In Bill, performers from BBC’s
Horrible Histories provide some of their own ideas...
With multi-role performances from the six leads and
enjoyable cameos, we follow “hopeless young lute player”
Bill Shakespeare as he leaves home to follow his dreams.
Suffragette
Showing from Mon 12 Oct
Sarah Gavron • UK 2015 • 1h46m • Digital
12A - Contains infrequent strong language, moderate violence, a
scene of force-feeding
Cast: Carey Mulligan, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne-Marie Duff,
Meryl Streep, Ben Whishaw, Brendan Gleeson
Selected as the opening film of the 2015 BFI London Film
Festival, Sarah Gavron’s drama tracks the story of the foot
soldiers of the early feminist movement - women who were
forced underground to pursue a dangerous game of cat
and mouse with an increasingly brutal State.
These working women, who had seen peaceful protest
achieve nothing, turn to violence as the only route to
change and were willing to lose everything in their fight for
equality - jobs, homes, children and their lives.
Maud (Carey Mulligan) was one such foot soldier. The
story of her fight for dignity is as gripping and visceral as
any thriller, it is also heart-breaking and inspirational.

Stephen Frears • UK/France 2015 • 1h44m • Digital • cert tbc
Cast: Ben Foster, Chris O’Dowd, Dustin Hoffman, Guillaume Canet.
In January 2013, filmmaker Laura Poitras was in the process
of constructing a film about abuses of national security in
post-9/11 America when she started receiving encrypted
e-mails from someone identifying himself as ‘citizen four’,
saying he wanted to blow the whistle on the massive
covert surveillance programs run by the NSA and other
intelligence agencies. In June 2013, she and reporter
Glenn Greenwald flew to Hong Kong for the first of many
meetings with the man who turned out to be Edward
Snowden. She took her camera with her. The film that
resulted from this series of tense encounters is absolutely
unique in the history of cinema: a 100% real-life thriller
unfolding minute by minute before our eyes.

Nanni Moretti • Italy/France 2015 • 1h47m • Digital • Italian and
English with English subtitles • 15 - Contains strong language
Cast: Margherita Buy, John Turturro, Nanni Moretti, Giulia Lazzarini.
In this smart, sensitive drama, Margherita (Margherita Buy)
is a middle-aged director shooting a film with a difficult
American star (played by John Turturro). Throughout this
testing time, she wrestles with her mother’s terminal illness
and her daughter’s volatile adolescence.
Nanni Moretti’s understated and affecting film - a Palme
d’Or nominee at Cannes - explores existential confusion
and loss, while weaving moments of wry humour into the
drama.
As American cyclist Lance Armstrong (Ben Foster) rises to
prominence as a world champion, heroically battling cancer
along the way, one Irish journalist is the lone dissenting
voice against his accolades.
Initially enamoured by Armstrong’s charisma and
dedication, sports writer David Walsh (Chris O’Dowd)
begins to suspect that the seven-time Tour de France
winner’s successes have been built on a lie.
Based on Walsh’s book Seven Deadly Sins: My Pursuit of
Lance Armstrong, Stephen Frears (Philomena) directs this
tale of deception, intrigue and eventual vindication.

Established initially by Josef Stalin and his son, the Soviet

written by Lillian Henley • cert tbc
Complementing the release of Sarah Gavron’s Suffragette
(see page 7), this selection of silent films from the BFI
National Archive shows how suffragettes were portrayed
on the cinema screen while their battles were still been
waged on the streets outside.
The suffragettes tactic was to stand up at every public
event and cry “Votes for women!” As leader Emmeline
Pankhurst said in her legendary speech of November 1913:
“You have to make more noise than anybody else, you have
to make yourself more obtrusive than anybody else, you
have to fill all the papers more than anybody else. In fact
you have to be there all the time and
see that they do not snow you under.”

of Camelot and encounter God in a wondrous vision. He
sets the band of heroes on a noble quest: to find the Holy
Grail.

Fifteen years after murdering his sister, Michael Myers
escapes from a mental institution and returns to the small
town of Haddonfield. Dr Sam Loomis, a psychiatrist who
has been treating Michael, races to track him down before
he kills again.
“Halloween is an absolutely terrifying, creepy and merciless
thriller. It’s a visceral experience - we aren’t seeing the
movie, we’re having it happen to us. It’s frightening! We
see movies for a lot of reasons. Sometimes we want to be
amused. Sometimes we want to escape. Sometimes we
want to laugh, or cry, or see sunsets. And sometimes we
want to be scared. I’d like to be clear about this - if you
want to have a really terrifying experience, see Halloween.”

Over the Rainbow
Belmont Filmhouse is delighted to host Over the
Rainbow - a monthly screening strand for new and
classic LGBTQIA films and events.
This month, we have Madeleine Olnek’s perfectly
pitched parody of ‘50s sci-fi - the marvellously
titled...*drum roll*...
Part romance, part comedy, part meditation on matters
political and philosophical, Wenders’ remarkable movie
posits a world haunted by invisible angels listening in to our
thoughts. Such plot as there is concerns two kindly spirits
(Ganz and Sander), posted to contemporary Berlin, who
encounter a myriad of mortals, including an ageing writer
blighted by memories of a devastated Germany; an actor
(Peter Falk, sublimely playing himself) on location shooting
a film about the Nazi era; and a lonely trapeze artist, with
whom Ganz falls in love, thus prompting his desire to
become mortal at last. Full of astonishingly hypnotic images
(courtesy of veteran cinematographer Henri Alekan, also
responsible for Cocteau’s luminous La Belle et la bête) that
manage effortlessly to turn Wenders’ and Peter Handke’s
poetic, literary script into pure cinematic expression. Few
films are so rich, so intriguing, or so ambitious.

These senior citizens may each be almost a century young,
but for Kara, (94) Maynie, (95) and Terri, (93) the journey
to Las Vegas and the World Hip Hop Dance Championships
is just the beginning of a life’s journey.
Along with twenty-four other nonagenarians they defy the
odds and hip-hop their way into the hearts and minds of
thousands of young fans from around the world.
Along the way we hear how these extraordinary characters
contributed to New Zealand as we know it. Their stories are
a reminder of their history as a nation and the joy of living
life to the fullest.
PLUS SHORT
Directed by Tweedie
Duncan Cowles • UK 2015 • 16m
For decades, since they were children, two old sisters have
returned to a cottage on an island off the coast of Maine,
where in August it has been their custom to watch at
twilight as the whales pass on their journeys to wherever
it is that whales go. Although they make plans for the
future, and argue over whether they should install a new
picture window, there is the sense that this will be their last
summer in the cottage.
A quietly compelling film, featuring wonderful
performances from two legends of cinema, Bette Davis and
Lillian Gish. There is a story that during filming, Anderson
told Gish one day that she had just performed wonderfully
in a closeup. “She should,” Davis declared. “She invented
them.”
Making a film when you’re 87 is less than convenient. As
granddad ‘Tweedie’ reluctantly takes up his new role as
a filmmaker, we’re invited to examine the difficulties of
communication between the generations, whilst exploring
that unspoken contract that binds children to their
grandparents.
The 12.30pm screening of Hip Hop-eration is screening in
partnership with DanceLive festival (see pages 14-15).

Tyler (Channing Tatum) is a young car thief in Baltimore
who, after breaking in and vandalising the stage, is
sentenced to community service in the Maryland School
of the Arts.
Meanwhile, Nora (Jenna Dewan) is a classically-trained
dance student preparing for her senior showcase, whose
partner suffers an injury during their rehearsals. Impressed
by Tyler’s performance in an impromptu hip-hop street
dance, she asks him to fill in - beginning a relationship that
offers both of them fresh perspective on their lives...
A flickering dance of intriguing imagery brings to light the
possibilities of ordinary movements from the everyday
which appear, evolve and freeze before your eyes.
Made entirely from archive photographs and footage from
the earliest days of moving image, All This Can Happen
follows the footsteps of the protagonist from the short story
The Walk by writer Robert Walser. Juxtapositions, different
speeds and split frame techniques convey the walker’s
state of mind as he encounters a world of hilarity, despair
and ceaseless variety.

stop the galaxy’s most evil overlord. After years in spiritual
purgatory, Frieza has been resurrected and plans to take
his revenge on the Z-Fighters of Earth. Facing off against
Frieza’s powerful new form and his army of 1,000 soldiers,

Cast: Haruma Miura, Kiko Mizuhara, Kanata Hongo, Satomi
Ishihara, Nanami Sakuraba.
In 1814 Edo (now known as Tokyo), a much accomplished
artist works tirelessly in his studio. He is as short-tempered
and sarcastic as he is brilliant, with no passion for money or
meaningless pastimes like drinking. His name is Katsushika
Hokusai and decades later his work will come to mesmerise
artists like Degas, Van Gogh, Monet, Klimt and Debussy.
But very few were aware of the woman who often painted
for him whilst remaining uncredited.
Several hundred years ago, humans were nearly
exterminated by the Titans, cruel giants who gorge on
human flesh. What remains of the human population
survived in relative peace behind massive defensive walls,
but this peace was shattered when a Titan measuring over
50 metres tall smashed through the wall, allowing a horde
of others to enter.
This is the untold story of O-Ei, Master Hokusai’s daughter,
a free-spirited woman overshadowed by her larger-than-life
father. She inherited both his stubbornness and his talent,
and her art is so powerful that it leads her to trouble....

The moon is approaching dangerously close to Earth and,
unless something is done, it will disintegrate and shower
the Earth with gigantic meteorites. As the clock ticks
towards the end of the world, can Naruto save the planet
from this crisis?
Eren Yeager had resigned himself to a life confined behind
the walls. But when he joins the Outer Wall Restoration
Team set up to fight the Titans, he finds himself reunited
with childhood friend Mikasa. The new recruits embark on
a mission to plug the gaping hole in the wall and stop the
waves of Titans once and for all.
With humanity’s survival on the line, will there be a future
for Eren and Mikasa, and for mankind itself?

DISCOVERY
This year our hunt for the most original new shorts from
across the world has brought us stories from Japan, Russia,
Australia, Germany, the United States and more...
We’ve found bouncing baby kangaroos, lightning-powered
robot vacuum cleaners and a piano-playing octopus.
In a Japanese bakery we came across dolphin-friendly
baguettes and then in a village in the middle of the African
plains we saw the dramatic impact of their first ever
snowfall.
These colourful stories are a magical introduction to the
cinema experience. All in English or dialogue free, these
shorts will delight children aged 3+

For anyone over the age of eight, these short films will
inform, educate and entertain with a range of stories from
an imaginative history of the alphabet through to surrealist
high-diving hijinks.
What happens when number-crunching factory workers
discover there is more to life than black, white and grey?
An underappreciated pig - with the most important job in
town - makes a new friend and things change forever. A
young girl, out for a walk with her grandmother, sees the
world in a truly unique way in an absolutely outstanding
feast of sound and colour. And how many different mothers
are there in the world? How would you describe yours?
One Russian boy thinks his is rather special...
Though a couple of these films are dialogue free, most
of the others are in English, but we don’t rule out an
occasional short with subtitles.

Almost 170 years on, Charlotte Brontë’s story of the
trailblazing Jane is as inspiring as ever. This bold and
dynamic production uncovers one woman’s fight for
freedom and fulfilment on her own terms.
From her beginnings as a destitute orphan, Jane Eyre’s
spirited heroine faces life’s obstacles head-on, surviving
poverty, injustice and the discovery of bitter betrayal before
taking the ultimate decision to follow her heart.
This acclaimed re-imagining of Brontë’s masterpiece was
first staged by Bristol Old Vic last year, when the story was
performed over two evenings. Director Sally Cookson now
brings her celebrated production to the National, presented
as a single, exhilarating performance.
