Films for the 2010-11 season
Just back from the committee meeting and we can confirm the films for next season. It is possible that there might be a minor alteration due to rights, but that is reasonably unlikely. Full details will be on the website as soon as we can manage:
- The Band’s Visit
- When You’re Strange
- [A Buster Keaton, probably Seven Chances]
- Metropolis [restored version with live orchestra]
- Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet
- Milk
- Ordet
- Treeless Mountain
- Wrong Rosary
- A Common Thread (Les Brodeuses)
- The Woman of the Dunes
- The Class
- The White Ribbon
- Not One Less
- Mother
- Still Walking
- The Return
- Seraphine
- The Secret in their Eyes
Metropolis has had to be withdrawn, since it was proving too complicated what with the financing and the resourcing. Still, we have learned a huge amount about what would be involved in putting on such an event, so hope we can do it at some point in the future.
Woman of the Dunes will be replaced by Max Ophuls’ wonderful Letter from an Unknown Woman (1948), since the BFI’s rights to the former run out this summer.
