SUMMARY:Lee (15) + Special Event
DESCRIPTION:NB: This film is being shown on 8th May due to County Council elections on 1st May 2025. \n\n\n\nOn May 8th\, Lee Miller’s granddaughter Ami Bouhassane\, Co-Director of the Lee Miller Archives at the Farley Arts Trust will be joining us for a Q&A session. Don’t miss it! It will be a privilege to hear Ami talk about her grandmother’s life and work and answer our questions. \n\n\n\nWe are also very grateful to Anthony Penrose of the Farley Trust for offering to waive their normal performance fee for our event\, however a donation from every ticket sold will go to the Trust. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Lee\, Kate Winslet stars as Lee Miller – the fashion model turned war photojournalist for British Vogue. The film shows Miller as she “documents war as historical evidence”. As a female war correspondent at that time\, she was barred from entering active battle zones but none the less was not spared from witnessing and recording moving and horrific scenes beyond the areas of immediate combat. \n\n\n\nIn the film Lee Miller works along side Life Magazine photojournalist David E. Scherman\, played by Andy Samberg. They worked on many shared assignments\, including documenting the horrors of the Nazi concentration camps at Buchenwald and Dachau . Scherman’s iconic photograph of Millersitting in the bathtub in Adolf Hitler’s private apartment in Munich\, with the dried mud of that morning’s visit to Dachau on her boots – deliberately dirtying Hitler’s bathroom\, – was taken in the evening of 30 April 1945\, coincidentally the same day that Hitler committed suicide . After posing for the bathtub photograph\, Miller took a bath in the tub\, and then slept in Hitler’s bed. \n\n\n\nAfter the war Miller fought hard against the repression of her confronting war images in a world that preferred to forget the atrocities that had taken place.That Miller’s work is known today is mainly due to the efforts of her son\, Antony Penrose\, who has been studying\, conserving\, and promoting his mother’s work since the early 1980s. Never having known about her war work while she was alive\, Penrose later discovered sixty thousand or so photographs\, negatives \, documents\, journals\, cameras\, love letters\, and souvenirs in cardboard boxes and trunks in the attic of Farley Farm\, the family home. \n\n\n\nLee (2023) Certificate 15. Directed by Ellen Kuras. 117 minutes. English. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nDirected by Ellen Kuras. English.

SUMMARY:La Chimera (15)
DESCRIPTION:La Chimera is a fantasy created from fragments. For the thieves of ancient grave goods and archaeological wonders\, the Chimera means redemption from work and the dream of easy wealth.  \n\n\n\nFor Arthur (Josh O’Connor)\, fresh out of prison\, the chimera means a search through time and the underworld for his love Beniamina. A piece of cinematic magical realism using the ancient and modern landscapes of Tuscany against an unexpectedly rich musical score.  \n\n\n\nThe film has received 11 film awards and 26 nominations. \n\n\n\nDirected by Alice Rohrwacher. English\, Italian\, French with subtitles.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Greta Scacchi
DESCRIPTION:Ditchling Film Society is proud to host an evening in conversation with Greta Scacchi. Join us for a screening of White Mischief (15) followed by Greta Scacchi in coversation with Peter Guttridge author and former film journalist. \n\n\n\nSet in 1940s colonial Kenya\, White Mischief (1987) follows Diana Broughton (Greta Scacchi)\, a young aristocrat trapped in a loveless marriage to the much older Sir Jock Broughton (Charles Dance). Seeking escape\, she falls for the charismatic Josslyn Hay\, Earl of Erroll (Joss Ackland)\, a notorious figure in the decadent Happy Valley set. Their affair sparks jealousy and scandal within the insular expatriate community\, leading to Erroll’s mysterious murder—a crime that exposes the moral decay beneath the group’s glamorous facade. Directed by Michael Radford (1984)\, the film blends historical drama with an atmospheric murder mystery\, set against the striking landscapes of East Africa. \n\n\n\nRadford’s direction highlights the tension between Diana’s yearning for freedom and the rigid constraints of her world. Scacchi delivers a nuanced performance\, portraying Diana as both vulnerable and defiant\, caught in a web of passion and power. John Hurt’s narration adds a reflective tone\, while the film’s restrained pacing builds a quiet inevitability. With its mix of romance\, intrigue\, and social critique\, White Mischief offers a compelling portrait of colonial excess and the personal tragedies it leaves in its wake. \n\n\n\nFree for members.

SUMMARY:Bergman Island (15)
DESCRIPTION:A gentle\, deep drama about two filmmakers\, Chris\, who is in a relationship with an older man\, and Tony\, well-known with a big fan base. They go on a working retreat to the island that inspired Ingmar Bergman.  While there\, Chris wonders whether society would ever allow her to have 9 children from 6 different partners\, as Bergman had and shares it as a film idea with Tony. \n\n\n\nWe begin to see her film as she sees it\, with her imaginary actors playing out her script. A film within a film emerges. Tony just wants to go on a Bergman “safari” and be feted by adoring younger fans.  Reality and fiction start to blur as tensions increase in the relationship between them. It is a film that gently pokes fun at the great film director\, while allowing women to drive the story. \n\n\n\n(2021). 112 mins. Swedish (English subtitles). Director Mia Hansen-Love

SUMMARY:The Banshees of Inisherin (15)
DESCRIPTION:Tragedy and comedy are paired in this end-of-friendship movie which is at times funny\, horrifying and heartbreaking. Two men meet every lunchtime for a drink on this small remote Irish village in the 1920s – Padraic\, a simple soul and dairy farmer\, and his best friend Colm\, a thinker and a fiddle-player. They lead uneventful lives until one day Colm no longer wants to see Padraic.  Padraic asks his sister why Colm  wouldn’t open the door to him and gets the reply ‘Perhaps he just doesn’t like you no more’ – a joke that soon turns out to be horribly true. This film reunites Brian Gleeson and Colin Farrell of In Bruges fame. \n\n\n\n(2022)  114 mins. Golden globe winner.  Drama some violence\, strong  language.  English  Director Martin McDonagh (of Three Billboards Outside Ebbing\, Missouri fame).

The film explores what makes us who we are\, how much is upbringing\, how much is genetic? It is sad and yet gripping storytelling. \n\n\n\n(2022). 119 mins. English subtitles. Director David Chou.

SUMMARY:Saint Maud (15)
DESCRIPTION:In her directorial debut Rose Glass has created a very well-crafted horror film;  a psychodrama with astute character observation and strong performances by Morfydd Clark and Jennifer Anne Ehle. The film earned a record seventeen nominations at the British Independent Film Awards 2020.

SUMMARY:Barbie - The Movie (12A)
DESCRIPTION:Yes! It’s about Barbie the Mattel doll! A riotously entertaining candy-coloured confection that manages simultaneously to celebrate\, satirise and deconstruct its (apparently) happy-plastic subject. \n\n\n\nSome call it a feminist fable and it definitely plays on stereotypes\, both male and female. You will recognise them! It’s very pink. It’s very funny. And you know there’s some quite serious stuff in there as well. \n\n\n\n(2023) 114 mins. English. Dir Greta Gerwig

DESCRIPTION:With audacity and insight\, the filmmaker fuses a comedic romp of romance and self-discovery with a sharp debunking of classic Hollywood myths and heroes. \n\n\n\nSet in the San Fernando Valley in the 1970’s it is a partly autobiographical \, pugnaciously romantic coming of age story for a teenage actor and a hectic trip of self-discovery for a twentysomething dreamer. \n\n\n\nDirector Paul Thomas Anderson. (2021). \n\n\n\nEnglish \n\n\n\nDoors open from 7:30pm for wine and soft drinks. \n\n\n\nAnnual membership £50 (11 films).

SUMMARY:Pina (PG)
DESCRIPTION:Pina is a documentary about German dancer and choreographer Pina Bausch. Directed by Wim Wenders. \n\n\n\nWith Pina’s sudden death during filming of the documentary Wenders cancelled the production\, but the other dancers of Tanztheater Wuppertal convinced him to go ahead with the film. \n\n\n\nBausch was a leading exponent of “dance theatre” and this documentary shows her legendary approach to choreography and to her dancers.
