Or the chap blind drunk at the bar shouting abuse at the chap 'rocking' the mic, that'd be me.

Good night. Pru, pencilbiter and friends winning the top prize after a NAILBITING tie-breaker.

Now, I am extremely hungover.

The Cornerhouse tonight to see Black Shack Alley, which I saw first time round in about 1984.

A film from Martinique (in French, subtitled) - it remains powerful, moving and uplifting. In colonial days, a grandmother working in the sugar cane plantations struggles to raise her grandson, who has been orphaned. He is very bright. He has the offer of a place at the elite school in the capital. But the fees are very high. What will the grandmother do to get this child the future he might have? More here:

This was one of the first films from the independent Caribbean, the first by its director. It's great. It really is. Put it on LF lists...

Not (g)hosted by Alan Howling and Wraith Deakin then? I bet they didn't even get Boo Hansen to organise pass the parcel.

Beasts of the Southern Wild is showing at the Cornerhouse. I can't do better than IMDB in summary... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2125435/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

This is a beautiful film, scary, loving and redemptive. Many critics have recognised a debt to Malick's Tree of Life. And they are right - though this is less enigmatic than Malick's film.

It sometimes hurts, sometimes lifts the heart, sometimes calls the tears - and should be seen by people that care about cinema outside the hollywood box.

It's in English. No subtitles. :wink:

It's down a very nice leafy backstreet. Opposite a school, I think, if you need a landmark.

Don't arrive early & if you do, don't appear to be lurking about & certainly don't be going taking pictures as the kids are leaving.
