film night

There's alot of it about. SE London seems to be crawling with film clubs like nit-colonies on a schoolkid's head.

There's SELF, the South-east London Film Collective, Deptford TV, Pepyshow, Kirby's Cinema (3rd Tues of every month at The Deptford Arms) and doubtless a whole rank organisation of others. So if I said 'but there isn't an arthouse movie club round here' I'd almost certainly be wrong. Nonetheless...

DnA, by general consent and with alot of help from Liz at APT, plans to usher in a new era showing movies that no-one else can be bothered with because they're either
a) too expensive and you can only get them at the Serpentine Gallery anyway
b) you have to be Canadian or comatose to get through them
c) they've only ever been released in an obscure slavic dialect
or
d) they were made by a local artist while drunk in charge of a(n) unicycle.

Actually, the idea is probably to mix the first view of an artschool movie with something grand in the way of artist's shorts and another outing for a long-lost classic. So you might get
Alice in Wonderland by Jan Svankmejer, plus Cremaster 3 by Matthew Barney plus (insert your.mov here)
or
(insert your.mov here), plus The Passing by Bill Viola plus Metropolis by Fritz Lang

Anyway, the mechanics of it haven't been finalised yet but it will be a 'private' club. That is, you will have to be a member and it will cost (not much) because there are all sorts of complicated licensing issues.
There will also be some sort of bar, and, no doubt, pop-bloody-corn for the traditionalists amongst us.
So hurrah. Be there.
