Movies:

i run london film screenings but you'll have to ask if you want to come along - screenings coming soon - 'Your Classical Education Screenings' - officially reviewed as 'not at all boring' - Ingmar Bergman's 'Seventh Seal'! presented by a real life swedish girl! also coming up - 'The Third Man' with Claire Shepard, 'Battle Royale' with introductory polemic by Mr. T.A. Bam-Bam Morgan, The Producers with Charlotte Jermy, also Kirikou and The Sourceress, Harold and Maude, Being There, The Ladykillers, Bronco Bullfrog, Belleville Rendezvous and Arsenic and Old Lace and Jaws and special surprise Valentines' Day screening - will it be 'In The Mood For Love'? or 'Roman Holiday'? maybe 'Annie Hall'? more importantly, why are all the films we've picked for Valentines' Day so depressing?
