The Record Club & Shipley Film Society Present MOON & Hunky Dory 22nd January

Posted on January 3, 2012 by unklerupert

Anyone near Shipley, West Yorkshire has a unique opportunity to attend a great evening of film and music.

The Record Club along with Shipley Film Society are holding an evening of film & music on Sunday, January 22nd. A screening of Duncan Jones award winning 2009 debut MOON starring Sam Rockwell, will be followed by a full play through of David Bowie’s 1971 classic album Hunky Dory (celebrating it’s 40th Birthday!) on vinyl

The Record Club were inspired by reading an article on the BBC News site on record clubs and the idea of returning to listening to vinyl LPs all the way through, as originally intended by the recording artiste. Shipley Film Society’s aim is to bring together like minded people for film viewing and discussion over a few drinks afterwards. Combine the two and you have what promises to be a wonderful evening of film & music with a bunch of great people to boot!

As well as MOON & Hunky Dory, the evening will also be mixing in associated music including records from MOON score composer Clint Mansell’s former band Pop Will Eat Itself. Shipley Film Society have also requested that anyone that owns 7″ vinyl copies of Chesney Hawkes ‘The One and Only’ and Katrina & The Waves ‘Walking On Sunshine’ bring them along too. If you’ve seen MOON you’ll know why, if not…

When: Sunday, January 22nd 2012 @ 19:00

Where: The Kirkgate Centre, Shipley, BD18 3RR

Full details at The Record Club site, and the Shipley Film Society site.

MOON Showing As Part Of The Filmhouse ‘What is Human Dignity?’ Season 26th November

Posted on November 20, 2011 by unklerupert

Good News for fans of seeing MOON on the big screen in Edinburgh. Filmhouse includes a screening of Duncan Jones’ award winning feature debut as part of the short ‘What is Human Dignity?‘ season beginning Friday 25th November.

MOON itself will screen on Saturday 26th November at 18:00 and includes a post screening discussion with a panel of bioethics and medical law specialists covering some of the issues raised in the film.

They may be taking a DNA sample on the way out, but this is nothing to worry about, just part of the “the experience”, there is no truth in the rumour that the screening is sponsored by Lunar Industries.

Thanks to Lilly Hunter & Lynne Henderson for the heads up

If you are in Leeds, UK or Nantes, France over the next few days, then you have the chance to see Duncan Jones‘ multi award winning, debut feature MOON starring Sam Rockwell on the big screen.

The Hyde Park Picture House in Leeds gets the ball rolling with a fantastic Sam Rockwell double bill of Galaxy Quest & MOON on Saturday 15th October beginning at 23:00 through to the early hours of Sunday morning at 02:30.

MOON: Screening At The Image Gazer Film Festival

Posted on May 15, 2011 by unklerupert

MOON was originally released in 2009, and is now available on DVD / Blu-Ray and digital download. This makes repeat viewing of Sam Rockwell’s incredible performance as Sam Bell a simple matter of switching on the telly, and getting comfy. It’s always nice though, to watch a film as wonderful as MOON on the big screen.

Image Gazer Film Festival Director Dylan Howard, has been in touch to let us know that should you be anywhere near Bucksport, Maine, USA in June, then you may be lucky enough to get to see Duncan Jones’ MOON as part of the Festivals 2nd year line-up.

MOON will be screened at 17:00 on the 18th June at the Alamo Theatre, in Bucksport, along with another 25 films, over 4 days at the festival, which runs from June 16th – June 19th 2011.

So, if you’re in the area, pop over to Dylan’s site for further details.

Hoi! Netherlands – Source Code: Imagine Fantastic Film Festival

Posted on April 7, 2011 by unklerupert

According to IMDB release dates, our friends in the Netherlands have a while to wait until SOURCE CODE 9th June release date, but thanks to our eagle eyed friend Eva, we have news of an early screening at the 27th Imagine: Amsterdam Fantastic Film Festival.

The screening is at 20:00 at the Kriterion, on 23rd April, and as they say in the Netherlands.

Tijdens een treinreis overkomt luchtmachtpiloot Colter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) iets verontrustends. De vreemde vrouw in zijn gezelschap (Michelle Monaghan) beweert niet alleen zijn vriendin te zijn, ze spreekt hem ook aan met een heel andere naam. De verwarrende situatie blijkt het gevolg van een experimenteel programma van de overheid, genaamd ‘Source Code’, waarbij tijdreizen en zielsverhuizing worden ingezet in de strijd tegen het terrorisme. Stevens keert herhaaldelijk terug naar hetzelfde moment in de tijd, en in het lichaam van iemand anders, om de onbekende dader van een bomaanslag op te sporen.

De Brit Duncan Jones, die twee jaar geleden verrassend debuteerde met de filosofische retro-sf van Moon, maakt ook van de opvolger een intrigerende breinbreker, maar op grotere schaal. En toch was het budget van 25 miljoen dollar een schijntje in vergelijking wat Jones’ landgenoot Christopher Nolan vorig jaar mocht uitgeven aan zíjn actiefilm-met-hersens Inception. Maar let op, na Source Code zou het met Jones wel eens net zo hard kunnen gaan.

Source Code: Duncan Jones Q & A At Electric Cinema London Sat 9th April

Posted on April 6, 2011 by unklerupert

An extremely busy SOURCE CODE promotional tour comes towards it’s end on Saturday the 9th April at the Electric Cinema in London. Following previously announced SOURCE CODE screening and Q&A at the Odeon, Leicester Square on Friday 8th April, and Duncan’s appearance at Mark Millar’s Kapow Comic Con on Saturday afternoon, Duncan Jones will be giving a Q&A at the Electric Cinema, Portobello Road, London, W11.

As an added bonus, the Q&A will be hosted by film writer & movie festival dude, Damon Wise, who recently revealed some secrets of the SOURCE CODE on Empire (spoiler free)

Announced by Duncan himself on Twitter earlier, the Q&A will take place at the 18:30 screening on Saturday evening, so if you were unable to attend the Odeon, or Kapow, this may be your last opportunity to ask Duncan those burning questions about SOURCE CODE in person, before he jets back to LA, to begin planning his next venture. Tickets available HERE.

If you are unable to attend any of the London events, Duncan will be taking part in a live webchat with Empire Magazine on Friday 8th April, at 13:00.

And don’t forget folks, SOURCE CODE is now on general release, so let’s get out there a beat the bunny this weekend

Source Code: SXSW World Premier Live Stream

Posted on March 12, 2011 by unklerupert

Ok folks, we’re going to try a little live streaming here from SXSW 2011 and hope that the lovely people over there will be covering the premiere of Duncan Jones’ Source Code in Austin, Texas this evening.

For all in the UK, Austin is GMT -6, so with the event starting at 19:00 Austin time, we’re looking at 01:00 UK (apologies for UK bias, but that’s about all my small brain can handle at the moment)

So, pull up a chair, pop the kettle on (or crack open the bubbly) and gaze in awe as we wait on tenterhooks for the chance to join in virtually with Director Duncan Jones, and stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Vera Farmiga and Michelle Monaghan.
