    There is no trailers at the Classic screenings, but sometimes the film won't come on for ten minutes or so after the advertised time, so I'd say it'd be 8.10 to 8.15.

    Based on Greene’s short story The Lieutenant Died Last, this is one of Ealing’s finest films, a ‘what if . . . ?’ parable of disturbing power.

    A German patrol disguised as British soldiers on manoeuvres captures an English village prior to a full-scale invasion, but the villagers fight back. Intended by Greene as a propaganda piece to show British bravery under duress, the film accomplishes that, but also disquietingly discloses complacency as well as courage.

    By having the Germans played by familiar British actors, the film is the reverse of reassuring, and two extraordinary murder scenes committed by women in the village illustrate, in director Alberto Cavalcanti’s view, how people of the kindest character can become monsters when war touches them. Controversially, Cavalcanti thought it a pacifist work: it is certainly the most remarkable British war film of its time, depicting an England fighting for its life and, implicitly, for a new social order when the war is won.

    This is vintage British film noir, inviting comparison with Hollywood noir classics like Double Indemnity and Scarlet Street in its murky drama and its intense Expressionist imagery.

    Richard Attenborough is superbly sinister as the young killer embroiled in gang warfare in Brighton and tormented by religious and sexual guilt when forced into marriage with a young waitress (Carol Marsh) to prevent her from testifying against him. On his trail is a righteous spiritualist, played by Hermione Baddeley as a cross between Miss Marple and Mae West.

    Greene’s superb novel was influenced by the 1930s French thrillers he so admired, particularly Pepe le Moko, and the film adds imaginative flourishes of its own, notably a frightening murder on a fairground ride appropriately entitled ‘Dante’s Inferno’, and a clever ending that adds a welcome layer of irony and compassion to the novel’s bleak coda.

    LOL, was just hitting submit on a long post :p

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,330 ✭✭✭niallon


    Learned from the master! :P

    Yup, ironically though I've a Film exam tomorrow including On The Waterfront, how handy it would be if that screening was tonight...but as it stands I'll be well and truly enraged with that film come February! :D

    Yeah, would have been handy alright :)

    I'm looking forward to Gone With The Wind & Rocky mostly.

    GWTW is 4 hours long, they better have a fecking interval :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,330 ✭✭✭niallon


    Don't think I could hack GWTW if I follow through on my plan to cath LOTR in the cinema again! :D I may have to settle for Rocky as a happy medium!

    Judging by their lack of concern during the Scream Fest when they played most of the features clearly from DVD, what do you think the chances are that the LOTR would be the extended editions? Starting at 7pm, there's plenty of time!

    Slim I'd say, but you could ask them on Twitter, they always reply.

    I only ever say the first LOTR, not my thing so I never watched the next two.

    I might try them again.

    Cheers, someone seems to have asked the question for me already, it's the theatricals!

    Dang, Extended Editions would seal the deal! I'd definitely say you should give them a shot, if only because you missed out on some of the finest on screen action ever with Helm's Deep in The Two Towers, and this is coming from someone who's interest in the films lies squarely with Peter Jackson being the director, not a LOTR fanboy in any way!
