Lovely night #DCAC #NovetteVague @Wshed.bsky.social with @markcisgrove.bsky.social Another brilliant exploration about the story of how ‘New French Wave’ formed by Jean-Luc Godard who ignored the traditional filmmaking rules, making acclaimed film ‘Breathless’ in 1960, that was widely praised!

What a film - #Hamnet #DCAC @Wshed.bsky.social with Sharon @esjayclark.bsky.social, her useful contribution sparked us to see the comparison from Maggie O’Farrell’s bestseller novel. It highlighting the nature, pain, female isolation and influence! Some powerful scenes brought tears to your eyes!

What a good film and lovely #DCAC over Pilion @Wshed.bsky.social. Never expected Christmas theme is included, with British humour woven throughout it, plus sub/top relationship in awkward scenes! Interesting intro by @berniehodges.bsky.social about the darker, heavier themes in the book - Box Hill!

Interesting discussion with @hardiewrites #DCAC @Wshed.bsky.social, after watching #DieMyLove, this film gave us a food of thought with some totally unexpected, terrified and shocking moments, (it even made us jump!). Really emotional and empathetic themes centred on female’s representation!

Another good #DCAC @Wshed.bsky.social follows up the Hollywood melodrama film, All That Heaven Allows. With insightful introductory facts by Andrew Kelly, gives us more deeper understanding of Douglas Sirk as a director, with shooting styles in invisible political themes!

First ever #DCAC at Everyman, Bath, after watching @marleematlin.bsky.social’s powerful & moving ‘Not Alone Anymore’. Her journey experience as the first deaf Oscar winner highlights how audism persists since Milan 1880. This is one of the key issues where the deaf community have felt!

Lovely sharing opinions with Gavin Sunderland in #DCAC following #AHouseofDynamite, @Wshed.bsky.social. Thrilling, unexpected journey before the time running out, 3 different chaotic scenarios took place, with more close-up shots of brass choosing their decisions and fate! Success or failure?!

Great turnouts #DCAC @Wshed.bsky.social after watching ‘Deaf’ #Sorda with @hardiewrites. Interesting themes - relationship, family across generation, social norms and most importantly the role of language reflecting the reality of deaf lives within a ‘perfect’ world. Beautifully executed shootings!

Lovely night #DCAC after watching #MyBeautifulLaundrette marking 40th anniversary @Wshed.bsky.social with controversial themes in British values in the 80s era and fantastic camera work. With @hardiewrites.bsky.social explaining valid points after listening the veteran film director’s remarks!!

Another interesting discussion throughout the evening #DCAC @Wshed.bsky.social, after watching #HotMilk. The film threw us at the bay to think about the theme/contents - independent, trauma, hardworking care but decent & envy relationship. Thanks to Sarah MacGregor for sharing details with us!

Mixed reactions

Another good night #DCAC @wshed.bsky.social. A plenty food of thought on #FourMothers. Edward & Alma’s heartfelt relationship and emotional/moving journey to the end! A lovely personal contribution @berniehodges.bsky.social , he admitted that he wasn’t sure about the film but found it entertaining!

Enjoyable watching the hard core, raw, crime drama, giving more authentic storyline! William and luke Snellin (director) did a great job with amazing cast and crew making this happening! High recommended to watch!!

Another good night after the screening of #Mickey17 #DCAC @wshed.bsky.social Mixed reactions during the discussion but this film and views from @TimonSingh gave us a food of though over social power, human engagement, Bong Joon-Ho’s directing style and behind the production’s story!

What an evening at Cruzon, Hoxton, London! Enjoyable catch up with new and old faces and watched the premiere screening of Where The Light Get In - tv new moving drama & Chris Baker - comedy drama too!

Another lovely, strong discussion over l’m Still Here with political views, fighting for justice, family value with photo, film settings and shooting styles in our #DCAC @wshed.bsky.social With thanks to @ldam.bsky.social for his amazing input. In the end, we smiled!

Facing uncertain future, at least we know or expect what lies ahead! #2025

What a night @wshed.bsky.social it marked our 9 years anniversary event - Deaf Convos About Cinema #DCAC. Mixed reactions after watching Nosferatu, so interesting comparing the original and modern films with arts setting, costumes with little visual effects. Thanks to Nathan Hardies for his input!

Come watch and discuss Nosferatu with us Mon 13 Jan, which will be introduced by Bristolian film critic @hardiewrites.bsky.social. www.watershed.co.uk/whatson/1306...
