THE SON

Florian Zeller’s follow-up to ‘The Father’ features a tremendous performance from Hugh Jackman, as a divorced lawyer who agrees to look after his troubled offspring.

Hugh Jackman gives a performance of great dignity, presence and intelligence as Peter, a prosperous New York lawyer whose life is enviable: he is divorced (that situation being now amicable enough), remarried with a baby son, and on the verge of a political consultancy which might give him some sort of superstar future role in the White House. When his ex-wife gets in touch with news of their troubled son, Peter strives to help. As the characters struggle to deal with the boy’s worrying behaviour, the true nature of their relationships is laid excruciatingly bare, and the film evolves into a gripping psychological drama.

ALICE DARLING

Anna Kendrick, famous for effusive roles, shrinks before our eyes, embodying someone so brainwashed by a controlling boyfriend that her best friends are forced to intervene. She and Simon are in an unhealthy, co-dependent relationship characterized by him controlling her with frequent check-ins and the threat of disapproval. While on vacation with two close girlfriends, Alice rediscovers the essence of herself and gains some much-needed perspective. Slowly, she starts to fray the cords of co-dependency that bind her. But Simon’s vengeance is as inevitable as it is shattering – and, once unleashed, it tests Alice’s strength, her courage, and the bonds of her deep-rooted friendships. This is a quietly powerful drama about psychological manipulation and damage. Kendrick transfixes, affirming that she has always had depth and range.

INTERNATIONAL PANORAMA: JAPAN IKIRU

After the recent ‘Ikiru’ remake – ‘Living’ starring Bafta and Oscar nominated Bill Nighy for his lead role – we give you the opportunity to revisit Japanese director Akira Kurosawa’s finest achievement. If you have never seen it, you should. If you have seen it before, your admiration will only increase.

Mr Watanabe suddenly finds that he has terminal cancer. He vows to make his final days meaningful. His attempts to communicate his anguish to his son and daughter-in-law lead only to heartbreak. Finally, inspired by an unselfish co-worker, he turns his efforts to bringing happiness to others by building a playground in a dreary slum neighbourhood. A thoughtful, existential meditation about the meaning of life and what constitutes a life well-lived, Ikiru is almost guaranteed to prod the viewer to examine his or her own mortality and ponder how, in the end, the scales will tip.

INTERNATIONAL PANORAMA: DENMARK HOLY SPIDER

A serial killer murders prostitutes in Iran as the authorities stand idly by. Based on a shocking true story. Female journalist Rahimi investigates the case in the face of patriarchal obstruction. The echoes of the present situation in Iran are remarkably prominent in this shocking and engrossing crime thriller. The killer Saeed believes he is on a religious quest to ‘cleanse’ the city of Mashhad of immoral and corrupt street prostitutes. He is confounded by the authorities’ lack of action or the public’s lack of interest in response to his crimes. Meanwhile a reporter pursues the story. The film follows the story beyond the investigation, arrest and trial. One of the more disturbing revelations is the high regard Saeed was held within ultra-conservative circles. A crisp, engrossing and effective crime thriller. (Subtitles)

CÉZANNE: PORTRAITS OF A LIFE

EXHIBITION ON SCREEN

Exhibition on Screen is thrilled to be bringing back one of its most successful ever films, dedicated to the life and work of Paul Cézanne. Released to coincide with a major Cézanne exhibition at Tate Modern (Oct 22 – Mar 23).

Dedicated to the portrait work of Paul Cézanne, the exhibition opened in Paris (2017) before travelling to London and Washington. One can’t appreciate 20th century art without understanding the significance and genius of Paul Cézanne. Featuring interviews with curators and experts from the National Portrait Gallery London, MoMA New York, National Gallery of Art Washington, and Musée d’Orsay Paris, and correspondence from the artist himself, the film takes audiences beyond the exhibition to the places Cézanne lived and worked and sheds light on an artist who is perhaps the least known of all the impressionists – until now. From the National Portrait Gallery London, Musée d’Orsay Paris and National Gallery of Art Washington DC.

For Brian Eno and Roger Eno fans, there is no better way to experience this immersive and mesmerising performance than in a cinema with superior sound and vision. Unforgettable.

Brian Eno and Roger Eno have been recording together since 1983. This unique musical event not only sees the two brothers performing live together for the first time, but unbelievably it’s one of the very rare occasions that Brian Eno has ever performed live in front of an audience. Famous for their atmospheric music landscapes from legendary productions that include film scores, television soundtracks and ambient records, Brian and Roger perform in front of a sell-out crowd and against a backdrop of spectacular images being projected onto the stones of the Odeon of Herodes Atticus amphitheatre.

DREAMING WALLS: INSIDE THE CHELSEA HOTEL

An intimate stay at NYC’s mythical Chelsea through a portrait of its last remaining residents, and ghosts of those past, as the building is transformed from artistic refuge to luxury hotel. This fascinating documentary accompanies the hotel’s handful of holdouts as they live amidst the noise and chaos of construction, as the iconic countercultural residence – immortalised by Warhol’s Chelsea Girls, Dylan Thomas, William Burroughs, Patti Smith and more – has its storied interior gutted to make way for a very different clientele. Merging rich 16mm with historic archival fragments, and, guided by a charismatic octogenarian choreographer, amongst its final tenants, an ode to the Chelsea, the people who make places, and the onward march of urban change. A ghost story haunted by fame and celebrity.

INTERNATIONAL PANORAMA: ARGENTINA THE SUBSTITUTE

EL SUPLENTE

A substitute teacher in Buenos Aires must step out of his teaching duties when one of his students is threatened by a local drug kingpin.

In cinema, the story of the committed teacher and the tough innercity teens never gets old – although it can get clichéd. That’s not the case, though, with Diego Lerman’s Argentinian drama. Lucio is a passionate but somewhat embittered literature scholar with frustrated creative ambitions who takes a supply teacher job in a tough area. A promising classroom vibe is damaged, however, when local gendarmerie raid the school after drugs are found on the premises – a fix-up involving mayoral rivalries – resulting in student Dilan, a protégé of Roberto, having to go on the run. A clever mix of social issues and elements of gangland thriller underpinned by an insightful central character study. (Subtitles)

WOMEN TALKING

Women victimized in an isolated religious community grapple with how to deal with a culture that sanctions sexual abuse and domination by selfish men.

The film focuses on a group of women in an isolated, fictional Mennonite sect who have been drugged and sexually assaulted. They gather in a hayloft to decide whether to stay and forgive the men – the only way, they’re told, that they can enter the kingdom of heaven – or stand and fight the men. Or pack up and leave the only home they’ve ever known. Starring Claire Foy, Rooney Mara, Jessie Buckley, Frances McDormand and Ben Whishaw, every one of them presenting incredible performances. This is troubling, challenging and provocative fare.

INTERNATIONAL PANORAMA: FRANCE SAINT OMER

Silver Lion winner at the 2022 Venice Film Festival. Alice Diop reinvents the courtroom drama in this concentrated, gripping study of a writer and the young African woman whose fate comes to fascinate her.

A novelist attends the trial of a woman accused of killing her 15-month-old daughter by abandoning her to the rising tide on a beach in northern France. But as the trial continues, her own family history, doubts, and fears about motherhood are steadily dislodged as the life story of the accused is gradually revealed. The case, drawn from a real-life 2016 headline-maker in France, is stark and horrifying: legally straightforward, perhaps, but psychologically tumultuous. This extraordinary film won’t be pushed toward convention, catharsis or conclusion: Diop, like her uncertain observer, is both ally and analyst to one woman’s riveting, unreliable history.

A MIRROR FOR BRITAIN? REFLECTIONS ON THE EALING FILMS

With the recent stage production of the film at the Festival Theatre, we look back at the Ealing catalogue, illustrated with a range of clips of films from the thirties to the fifties. Rescheduled from January.

Patrick Hargood, Chichester Cinema Education Officer, will guide us through the Ealing films which, to paraphrase producer Michael Balcon, “projected Britain and the British character.” These included not only the much-loved comedies, such as ‘Kind Hearts and Coronets’ and ‘The Ladykillers’, but also the wartime propaganda film ‘Went the Day Well?’ and the horror anthology ‘Dead of Night’. But did they really reflect Britain or were they rather how the British people wanted to see themselves…? Not quite the same thing.

Every day promptly at two o’clock, goofy, good-natured Padraic calls for the guy he considers his best friend in all the world, Colm (Brendan Gleeson), a terrible thing happens: Colm simply decides he doesn’t want to be friends with Padraic any more.

She has an alibi for the time of death, but as the circumstantial evidence mounts against her, he begins to fall deeply in love with this woman, who appears also to be falling for him, her protector.

CASSATT: PAINTING THE MODERN WOMAN

EXHIBITION ON SCREEN

Despite being a prolific painter of women, Mary Cassatt detested being described as a ‘woman painter’. Cassatt was born in America and became one of America’s most well-known artists. Delighted a full house at its premiere at the 2022 Chichester Film Festival. Mary Cassatt made a career painting the lives of the women around her. Her radical images showed them as intellectual, feminine and real, which was a major shift in the way women appeared in art. Presenting her astonishing prints, pastels and paintings, this film introduces us to the often-overlooked Impressionist whose own career was as full of contradiction as the women she painted. She was a classically trained artist but chose to join a group of Parisian radicals – the Impressionists – a movement that transformed the language of art. The world’s most eminent Cassatt curators and scholars help tell this riveting tale of great social and cultural change; a time when women were fighting for their rights and the language of art was completely rewritten. Mary Cassatt and her modern women were at the heart of it all.

WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT?

For documentary-maker and dating app addict Zoe, swiping right has only delivered an endless stream of Mr Wrongs. Rom-com with a Richard Curtis flavour.

Zoe (Lily James) has found a successful career as a documentary filmmaker but the heaviness of her topics has made it hard to find funding. When her long time friend Kaz (Shazad Latif) announces that he is starting the arranged marriage process, propelled by his own desire to do it rather than parental coercion, she sees his journey as inspiration for a new film, following him all the way down the aisle with her camera. With several nods to ‘When Harry met Sally’ this ticks every box of a delightful rom-com and even surpasses the Billy Crystal/Meg Ryan chemistry.

Straddling the past and the present, and weaving ideas of physiology, psychology and spiritualism, ‘The Book of Vision’ is a bold and uncompromising feature. Previewed at the 2022 Chichester Film Festival.

Following the fractured experiences of a young female doctor as her research into 18th century medicine chimes with her own biological challenges, the film is a beautifully shot, narratively complex exploration of our evolving relationship with our bodies and souls. Cinematographer Jorg Widmer, who also shot Malick’s ‘A Hidden Life’, treats each scene as a portrait to be savoured, filling the frame with exquisite detail drawn from Mariano Tufano’s gorgeous costumes. The presence of Charles Dance topping the cast, as well as of executive producer Terrence Malick, may help pique the interest of audiences interested in its themes of medicine, the occult and animism.

CREATURE

One of the most significant choreographic pieces of the last ten years, Akram Khan’s ‘Creature’ earned huge critical acclaim when it was first performed, and this specially designed film version had its world premiere at the BFI London Film Festival 2022. In an isolated research bunker deep in the Arctic, a human “creature” is subjected to inhuman experimentation but discovers the transformative power of love. It sounds like the plot of a sci-fi movie – which in a way it is – but ‘Creature’ is a performance; the latest work from choreographer Akram Khan and the English National Ballet, brought to the screen by acclaimed filmmaker Asif Kapadia. Taking centre stage as the ‘Creature’ is the extraordinary Jeffrey Cirio, who went on to star in the stage production. He twists and slinks across the set with a performance that’s both animalistic and tenderly humane.

ON THE BASIS OF GENDER

A TALK FOR WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH

Women’s History Month is celebrated every year, not only in the UK, but also in many other countries around the world. Its purpose is to celebrate and recognise what women have achieved culturally, politically and economically.

One way to understand the struggles for gender equality that women have faced, and still face today, is through the power of film. This year the Education team at New Park will be showing a diverse range of film clips which we hope will highlight and inspire discussion on the issues and challenges which affect women. To illustrate how these issues affect women globally, clips will include some films from the UK: ‘Made in Dagenham’ and ‘Suffragette’; US – ‘Hidden Figures’; New Zealand – ‘Whale Rider’; and more. Many of the films are based on true events.

ROMAN HOLIDAY

William Wyler’s Roman Holiday (1953) is a modern fairytale whose two leads have a charm and innocence that irradiate the whole movie.

Gregory Peck plays Joe, a US news stringer in Rome who stumbles across the story of the century: a beautiful, shy young woman, eager for some adventure with him as her guide. She turns out to be demure Princess Ann, from an imaginary European country. This sublime film rightly secured a best actress Oscar for Audrey Hepburn (in a role originally intended for Jean Simmons) and resulted in both Hepburn and Rome (not to mention motor scooters!) becoming the epitome of postwar chic. Immaculately directed by William Wyler, and written and played with style and grace, this is a film to treasure, both for its endearing action and marvellous performances.

She has to make sure her employers don’t find out she is gay: homophobia has always been bad and the Section 28 row threatens to make it worse. Adept at keeping her two lives separate, Jean’s world is rocked with the arrival of a new student who could destroy the veneer that she has successfully maintained. Oakley has crafted a sad and shrewd film about the loneliness of hiding your true self. This is a quietly searing debut that puts the past in tacit dialogue with the present.

Cue a romantic road movie, as the two crooks, the mother, the cute baby boy and an adorably mischievous stowaway squeeze into a beatup van, and set off in search of the child’s ideal adoptive parents.

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND THE FABELMANS

Part memoir, part ode to the power of the movies, ‘The Fabelmans’ finds Steven Spielberg digging at the family roots that helped make him a beloved filmmaker – and proves he hasn’t lost his magic touch.

Young Sammy Fabelman falls in love with movies after his parents take him to see ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’. Armed with a camera, Sammy starts to make his own films at home, much to the delight of his supportive mother. ‘The Fabelmans’ never seems self-serving. It’s a humble self-portrait, and the humility is most welcome. Viewers expecting a stirring childhood memoir about the power of cinema may be surprised at how bittersweet and raw the story actually is. But that vulnerability is what makes the film a triumph.

If you haven’t been back to the cinema yet, Indian epic ‘RRR’ is the reason to go. Set during the British Raj in the 1920s, this is an insane rocket-fuelled spectacle.

RRR isn’t just one of the best films of the year – it’s several of the best films of the year. SS Rajamouli’s Telugu-language masterpiece is an inspiring historical drama about Indian citizens rebelling against the British Raj in the 1920s; it’s a glitzy romantic musical worthy of Hollywood’s golden age; it’s a shadowy crime thriller about two double agents who become friends; it’s a crazily overthe-top action movie, and it’s a thunderous superhero epic. What’s most amazing is that all these genres and tones fit so seamlessly together to tell one powerful story. (Subtitles)

Middle-aged Felice comes back to his hometown after 40 years away. Felice’s boyhood friend Oreste, with whom he indulged in petty crime back in the day, is now a much-feared dead-eyed local mobster, and clearly has something to do with Felice leaving his beloved Naples in the first place. Don Luigi, the local priest, is a passionate critic of Oreste and with Felice hatches a plan to draw him out. A punishing story about the passage of time with immense depth and a lingering sensation of solitude that freezes the soul that we haven’t seen since Leone’s ‘Once Upon a Time in America’.

Textile artist Allan Brown spends seven years making a dress by hand from foraged stinging nettles, all picked on the South Downs. Allan, along with the dress and the director, will join us for a Q&A after the screening.

Beautifully filmed by award-winning documentary maker Dylan Howitt, ‘The Nettle Dress’ follows Allan and his ‘hedgerow couture’, the greenest of slow fashion. It’s also his medicine, the way he survives the death of his wife, that left him and his four children bereft. The challenge of making near zero carbon clothing sourced within a few miles of his home means relearning ancient crafts and recalls Hans Christian Anderson’s fairy tale ‘Wild Swans’. From early experiments making nettle thread, through foraging, processing, spinning, weaving and cutting the cloth. Finally, a vision of the dress back in the woods where the nettles were picked, worn by one of his daughters. “This is an exquisite film. Extremely beautiful and helpful for anyone suffering loss or grief. An inspiration.” – Sir Mark Rylance

A heartfelt, beautifully homespun tale of a lonely Irish childhood – one of the most soulful and moving films to grace cinemas for a long time. Nominated for Best Foreign Film Oscar and Bafta. Colm Bairéad’s debut feature is an intricately exquisite comingof-age drama that delves into the many layers of family relations through the eyes of a young girl. The film follows Cáit (Catherine Clinch) as she is sent to live with distant relatives for the summer. She is welcomed with open arms by Eibhlín (Carrie Crowley), but her husband (Andrew Bennett) keeps Cáit at arm’s length. Slowly but surely a warmth grows within this makeshift family and Cáit reaps the benefits. Until, that is, she discovers more than she anticipated. This is an unexpectedly beautiful assembly of narrative, image and sound which takes its cue from the title to build quietly to an emotional catharsis. (Subtitles)

24-year-old Antonia Brico (Christanne de Bruijn) was a child when she and her parents immigrate to the United States. Her piano teacher advises her against taking the entrance exam for the conservatory, and because she has little to lose, she returns to her motherland, where she begs the famous conductor Mengelberg (Gijs Scholten van Aschat) to give her conducting lessons, and after a two-year study at the State Academy of Music she becomes the first woman to conduct the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.

Combining boisterous buddy comedy with blistering, Black Power–era political fury, Poitier and a marvellously mischievous Belafonte star as a tough and taciturn wagon master and an unscrupulous, pistol-packing ‘preacher,’ who join forces in order to take on the white bounty hunters threatening a westward-bound caravan of people recently emancipated from slavery. A superbly crafted revisionist landmark, ‘Buck and the Preacher’ subverts Hollywood conventions at every turn and reclaims the Western genre in the name of Black liberation. It is also to Poitier’s credit both as director and star that he’s willing to allow Belafonte to chew up the scenery and steal the acting honours with a hysterical, outrageous performance.

A retired sea captain and his daughter must reassess their strained relationship after he begins a new romance with a widowed housekeeper.

Howard, a retired sailor and widower, lives in a house by the sea. His adult daughter Grace hires a caretaker for her father, a lady in her mature years, Annie. Reclusive and stubborn, Howard rejects Annie’s company, but eventually opens his heart and gives his final love a chance. Grace has her own crisis to unravel and finds her father’s romance difficult. Her father’s new love reminds her of the affection she missed, as a child and now again as an adult. Annie must face the complex father-daughter relationship, while Howard and Grace must realize their own imperfections. Honest and affecting with stellar performances.

INTERNATIONAL PANORAMA: SPAIN THE BEASTS

‘The Beasts’ is a pulsating psychological thriller from Spanish director Rodrigo Sorogoyen, which explores tension between local farmers and two outsiders in a Galician village.

A middle-aged French couple moves to a local village, seeking closeness with nature, where their presence inflames two locals to the point of outright hostility and shocking violence. Amidst the gorgeous, lush landscape of Galicia, Sorogoyen injects a pulsing, unnerving score that reflects the building hostility between the two households. The surrounding farmland may be Antoine and Olga’s joy, but the isolation is also a constant threat. Sorogoyen hits the bullseye in placing’ The Beasts’ in an intersection between a rural thriller and a Western in which all the weight of the story falls upon its characters. (Subtitles)

INTERNATIONAL PANORAMA: GERMANY/DENMARK THE MIDDLE MAN

In a town plagued by disaster, one man has the job of breaking the worst news to its citizens, in director Bent Hamer’s wryly amusing absurdist drama.

The film opens with the long-unemployed Frank (Kon-Tiki’s Pål Sverre Hagen) getting his big break. He’s just been hired to be the new middle man, a prominent if rather difficult job: in a town that’s inexplicably plagued by accidents and disasters, Frank’s primary responsibility is informing people about the deaths of their loved ones. Almost noirish in its analysis of the simmering tensions among the town’s ferociously enigmatic denizens – no one answers a question directly, and even Frank is somewhat mysterious – ‘The Middle Man’ explores how we connect or fail to connect with others and find our own humanity in the most unlikely circumstances.

GOOD NT LIVE

David Tennant is riveting, witty and intensely human in this play by C.P. Taylor, and directed by Dominic Cooke. Tennant (‘Doctor Who’) makes a much-anticipated return to the West End in a blistering reimagining of one of Britain’s most powerful, political plays. As the world faces its second World War, John Halder, a good, intelligent German professor, finds himself pulled into a movement with unthinkable consequences. Olivier Award-winner Dominic Cooke (‘Follies’) directs C.P. Taylor’s timely tale, with a cast that also features Elliot Levey (‘Coriolanus’) and Sharon Small (‘The Bay’). Filmed live at the Harold Pinter Theatre in London.

This new Exhibition on Screen film invites audiences to a private view of the exhibition, accompanied by the director of the Rijksmuseum and the curator of the show. A truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! As well as bringing Vermeer’s works together, both the Rijksmuseum and the Mauritshuis in the Hague have conducted research into Vermeer’s artistry, his artistic choices and motivations for his compositions, as well as the creative process behind his paintings. “We would not have thought it possible that so many museums are willing to lend their masterpieces. With this exhibition we can introduce a new generation to Vermeer’s paintings...” Taco Dibbits, Director of the Rijksmuseum. UK/NETHERLANDS 2022 DAVID BICKERSTAFF 90M

ALL THE BEAUTY AND THE BLOODSHED

Two worlds collide – fine art and Big Pharma – in this compelling documentary about artist-activist Nan Goldin and her campaign which helped bring down the Sackler empire.

Directed by Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Laura Poitras, All the Beauty and the Bloodshed is an epic, emotional and interconnected story about internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin told through her slideshows, intimate interviews, ground-breaking photography, and rare footage of her personal fight to hold the Sackler family accountable for the overdose crisis. The battles fought by Nan Goldin as a professional artist, a woman and the corporate family represent the architects of the pain inflicted upon her mental and physical health. This is a heartbreaking journey into activism that packs quite the payoff.

SNAP! THE PHOTOGRAPHER AND THE FILM

The art of the photographer, with still images rather than moving pictures, is a parallel but very different medium to the cinema. Whether portraying the news or capturing life in all its forms, photographers have long featured on the big screen. Sometimes they are a useful eye for the filmmaker to build a plot around, and in other cases they are the fascinating subjects of documentaries trying to get to the heart of the picture and the talents of the photographers. The new documentary ‘All the Beauty & the Bloodshed’ (screening 16 & 17 Apr) looks at the life and work of photographer Nan Goldin, and her fight against the Sackler family’s involvement in the opioid epidemic in the USA. In this illustrated talk to accompany that film, Sandy Guthrie will put photographers from the big screen in the frame, with examples real and fictional, paparazzo and artist. Expect ‘Rear Window’, ‘Blow-Up’, ‘La Dolce Vita’, ‘Finding Vivian Maier’ and others. 100M INC Q&A

I’M FINE (THANKS FOR ASKING)

When a recently widowed mother becomes houseless, she convinces her 8-year-old daughter that they are only camping for fun while working to get them off the streets. Having lost her apartment during the COVID-19 crunch, Danny roller skates around a neighbourhood of housing projects, fast-food joints and quasi-suburban homes trying to rustle enough gig economy scraps to pay rent and security on a new apartment. A visit to her presumptive – and understanding – landlord leaves her until the end of the day to secure the $200 she’s short. As the film progresses, we see the frustrations and the continued resourcefulness in which Danny handles her situation. This is a vibrant and inspiring story to emerge from COVID. Poignant and realistic are words that best describe the film.
