“I’ll trouble you for a light, friend” That was a dream come true. Johnny Guitar on an IMAX screen. Such lust! So corduroy! And that Lie to Me scene is surely one of the top 5 in cinema

Big thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday. Here’s a couple of pics of us testing the films before we opened the doors… gives you a good sense how impressive the Megascreen is. Thank you to @filmhubsw.bsky.social and @20thcflicks.bsky.social. We are back next weekend: ti.to/film-noir-uk...

Had such a great time with @bristoluni.bsky.social today showing Back to the Future on the big and beautiful Megascreen today. I've seen it a hundred times and it's never looked or sounded better. Such a treat!

What movie is this from?? It is now a necessity for us to watch it

Actor Mandy Patinkin’s plea for Jews to consider how what Netanyahu’s Israeli government is doing to Gaza is not just harming Palestinians and killing kids — but also endangering Jews across the globe.

I’ve been thinking about the outright discrimination American distributors have shown towards films like No Other Land, Gaza: Doctors Under Attack and other titles, that have been unjustly exiled. www.indiewire.com/features/com... The Film Industry's Cowardice on Palestine Diminishes Cinema Itself

Things that are gonna stick in my mind from @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social: Watching a documentary about a community cinema with that community in that cinema The Whale God Eating pizza with Gale Anne Hurd Being told the Llandoger Trow is on wheels by Young Sherlock The way Judith Vittet says “voila”

Last night, we surprised our audience with 'queer killer mermaid' film - SHE CREATURE (2001). However director Sebastian Guiterrez was even more surprised to learn that we were screening it - making it the first time it's possibly ever been shown on the big screen! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxKP...

Thank you to brilliant Forbidden Worlds Film Festival team, the wonderful interviewers and the fantastic audiences! What an absolute blast to spend time with all of you enjoying movies on the Bristol Megascreen. It's truly my idea of the perfect weekend!!

Last night we screened a straight-to-video banger on our Saturday night prime time slot and I’m not sorry The Shape of Slaughter ftw 😄 🧜‍♀️

Really enjoyed watching the Ulysses Cut of Waterworld (or as it is now to be known Moist Max) writ large on the imax screen. So much to say about what’s wrong with this movie but a joy to watch all 3 hours of it with an audience. Hats off to Centre Seat Front Row who stayed til the last credit 👏

The Day The Clown Cried | Jerry Lewis’ shelved film said to have been found on VHS filmstories.co.uk/news/the-day...

New: I (Daisy) remembered to update our blog. I wrote about why I found Flow so existentially upsetting, along with some general video shop updates. Read below 😎 20thcenturyflicks.wordpress.com/2025/05/21/f...

Cosplay is welcomed.

If you live in Bristol, or can get to Bristol, you can experience that ‘just inherited a movie theatre’ thing for real via @20thcflicks.bsky.social: 20thcenturyflicks.as.me/schedule/ccf... (I'm thinking of renting a screen to show ‘The Legend of Hell House’ at some point.)

Chapter 1 of our involvement with this cathedral of light culminates with Arthur’s premiere Wednesday 28th Chapter 2 (set to conclude c.2027) will feature hysteria, scandal, despair, bloodshed and ultimately glory

Come help (anti-)christen London’s new DIY grindhouse screen The Nickel in Farringdon with me on Jun 19th! It’s a screening of THE LANDLORD (1970) plus I’ll being doing a talk about how it relates to the themes of mah book, SCREEN DEEP. Tix at thenickel.co.uk

If you enjoyed ANDOR and still haven’t seen MICHAEL CLAYTON, do yourself a favor. Different genre but same writer-director, the brilliant Tony Gilroy. It’s so great.
