26th January - Film Review - Bran Nue Dae It's a film that deals with Aboriginal issues without resorting to the two easiest knee jerk arguments, either by condemning white people for destroying the indigenous population's spirit and way of life, or blaming Aborigines for simply not 'trying harder' to be more white. It takes a much more original and intelligent route - everyone has work to do, and there's no one way to do it.

23rd January - Coming Soon - The Road The special effects are fantastic - this beats any of the more glamorous and showy dystopic visions hands down. The cinematography is completely devoid of warm colours (excepting some flashbacks); instead we are shown just how many shades of grey one can create.
The Road is released 28th January Rating:  Hoopla Factor:  |
