Help us shape the next four years of Glasgow Film Sunday 22 January (15.00-17.00) & Tuesday 24 January (17.30-19.30) Glasgow Film (GFT and Glasgow Film Festivals) is launching a public consultation to help shape its next strategy for promoting film, TV and the moving image.

The new plan will build on our work to date and we are keen to hear views from as many people as possible.

Glasgow Film is hosting a series of audience discussions that are open to all, taking place at GFT. At these events, we will outline the achievements and progress made in recent years.

The discussions will also look to the future, inviting the audience to share their ideas and views on the challenges facing Glasgow Film, particularly in a rapidly evolving media landscape in which technological innovation is creating new opportunities for audiences.

Staff from Glasgow Film’s activities in film curation, film education, audience development and operations will be present at these events.

Sully

Hell or High Water

Tuesday 27 – Friday 30 December On Thursday 15 January 2009, the world witnessed the Miracle on the Hudson when Captain Chesley ‘Sully’ Sullenberger glided his plane onto the frigid waters of the Hudson River, saving the lives of all 155 aboard. However, even as Sully was being heralded by the public and the media for his unprecedented feat of aviation skill, an investigation was unfolding that threatened to destroy his reputation and his career. Featuring an awards-tipped Tom Hanks in the title role, Sully is the untold story.

Tuesday 27 – Friday 30 December Hell or High Water merges a gripping family drama with an action packed Neo-Western. Two brothers, Toby (Chris Pine) and Tanner (Ben Foster) face the foreclosure of their family’s farm and decide to team up for a string of adrenaline filled heists. They soon find themselves on the radar of seasoned Texas Ranger, Marcus (Jeff Bridges). As the brothers prepare for a final heist and with the Rangers hot on their tails, a final showdown looms where the values of the Old and New West thrillingly collide.

The story begins as a slow-burn romance between WWI-veteran lighthouse keeper Tom (Fassbender) and local landowner’s daughter Isabel (Vikander). The one thing missing from their idyllic life is a baby, but this is the one thing that proves impossible.

When a rowboat containing a newborn baby and a dead man washes up on their shore, they choose to raise the child as their own. That choice sets the stage for a heartbreaking story of love and sacrifice.

Endless Poetry Poesía sin fin

Friday 6 – Thursday 12 January The second autobiographical film in legendary director Alejandro Jodorowsky’s proposed cycle of cinematic memoirs (part one, The Dance of Reality, also screens this month), Endless Poetry recounts the artist’s young manhood in 1940s Chile. A young Jodoworosky finds himself drawn into the foremost bohemian artistic circles in Chile as a group of young creatives explore the beauty of the world in an entirely new way.

The Ardennes D’Ardennen

Monday 9 & Tuesday 10 January Alejandro Jodorowsky, the legendary director of El Topo and Santa Sangre, returned in 2013 with this, his first feature in almost a quarter of a century.

With typical joyous idiosyncrasy, The Dance of Reality is an exercise in imagined autobiography (the first in a series which this month’s Endless Poetry continues), revisiting defining moments from the auteur’s childhood in 1930s Chile. A witty and accessible magical mystery tour through the past finds the personal roots of Jodorowsky’s life-long fascination with religion, mysticism, poetry and philosophy.

Monday 2 – Thursday 5 January Robin Pront’s eye-catching debut set in an atmospheric Antwerp follows the consequences of troublemaker Kenny’s release from prison. In Kenny’s absence, his brother Dave has remained on the straight and narrow. He has also begun a relationship with Kenny’s girlfriend Sylvie, who is now pregnant. Any family reunion is going to be fraught, but the film’s deceptively mute, simmering first half eventually boils over as Kenny’s growing paranoia and appetite for violence tilt events in a much more gruesome direction.

This new documentary finds Millepied on the eve of his first gala with the Opera as he designs and fine-tunes his choreography for an esteemed audience.

Christine

Friday 27 January – Thursday 2 February In ‘70s Florida, ambitious 29-year-old Christine Chubbuck (Rebecca Hall) is relentlessly motivated to succeed in the male-dominated business of TV journalism. In a bid to boost ratings, the station manager issues a mandate to deliver juicier and more exploitative stories - a method firmly at odds with Chubbuck’s serious brand of issue-based journalism. Struggling to meet the demands, Chubbuck begins to crack.

Based on real events, this is an incisive and empathetic study of a troubled mind, with an arresting performance from Hall.

Weimar’s directors: Murnau, Lang, Lubitsch, Pabst, Wilder, Sternberg and Ruttmann are still legendary today, their stars: Marlene Dietrich, Louise Brooks, Emil Jannings and Conrad Veidt are unforgotten, and films like Nosferatu; The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari; Metropolis; and The Blue Angel demonstrate their unique aura.

VALENTINE’S DAY

Breakfast at Tiffany’s

Tuesday 14 February (18.00) A lonely, struggling writer becomes enchanted with his beautiful and free-spirited neighbour Holly Golightly in this timeless romantic comedy. As the two learn more about one another, they begin to fall in love against a stunning Manhattan backdrop. Adapted from Truman Capote’s gritty novella into a sophisticated comedy, this timeless classic is remembered best for Audrey Hepburn’s luminous performance as Golightly, along with the Oscar-winning ballad ‘Moon River’.

Director Blake Edwards Cast Audrey Hepburn, George Peppard, Patricia Neal, USA 1961, 1h55m, PG

The Umbrellas of Cherbourg Les parapluies de Cherbourg

Tuesday 14 February (20.45) Jacques Demy’s kaleidoscopic musical romance helped propel a young Catherine Deneuve to stardom along with helping define the image of French New Wave cinema. Umbrella-store worker Geneviève (Deneuve) has fallen for dashing mechanic Guy, however their romance is harshly interrupted when Guy is drafted to serve in the Algerian War, forcing the two lovers to grow up quickly. Cited by director Damien Chazelle as a defining influence on La La Land, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg is held as one of the greatest and most unorthodox musicals of all time.

Mon 2 & Tue 3 & Thu 5 January Gimme Danger recounts the hard-rocking history of Iggy Pop and his legendary punk band, The Stooges. Emerging out of Michigan in the 1960s, The Stooges brought a powerful and aggressive style of rock-n-roll - blending rock, blues, R&B and jazz - that changed the musical landscape.

Jim Jarmusch taps into a rich archive and presents candid interviews with Iggy. This poignant documentary reflects on the rise of the band, their inspirations and challenges, as well as Iggy’s reputation for passionate and wild performances.

Don’t Think I’ve Forgotten: Cambodia’s Lost Rock & Roll

Thu 12 Jan (15.20 & 20.25) During the ‘60s and early ‘70s, as the war in Vietnam threatened Cambodia’s borders, a new music scene emerged that took Western rock and roll and stood it on its head – creating a sound like no other. This new documentary combines interviews of surviving Cambodian musicians with never-before-seen archival material to document the twists and turns of the country’s inexplicable music scene and how it relates to Cambodian society past and present.

Mon 2 & Tue 3 & Thu 5 January Fresh from winning awards and shattering box office records in Japan, Makoto Shinkai’s enchanting tale of a young couple united only in their dreams is the latest emotionally charged anime to reach the UK. Considered by many to be the heir to Miyazaki, Shinkai’s film (based on his own novel) draws themes from sci-fi, high-school romance and Japanese magical realism. Thought provoking and enthralling, this mature work was the first animated film to be in competition at London Film Festival last year.

Director Makoto Shinkai Cast Ryûnosuke Kamiki, Mone Kamishiraishi, Ryô Narita, Japan 2016, 1h46m, subtitles, 12A: contains moderate language and sex references
