Now those glorious days return, and it’s not just for Saturday mornings.
It’s twenty four hours a day. Every day! So, grab your bag of popcorn
and your drink on a stick, take your seat in the one-and-nines, and
re-live some of the rarest and greatest gems from Film history, all
brought to a grateful viewer by Renown Pictures, the extraordinary DVD
label who continue to release their extensive archive. With Talking
Pictures Television you can now watch before you buy.
A unique way to build-up your very own library of Classic British Film.

Screenings of Love Hard (2014) » The Cinema Museum, London

Screenings of Love Hard (2014) » The Cinema Museum, London

Love Hard screenings and Q&A Thu 1st Oct 18.00 and 20.00

Love Hard (2014) is a work of docu-portraiture about BDSM and intimacy. In its inquiry into the loves and lives of 5 subjects, it presents nuanced, diverse, and thoughtful perspectives on how kink can function in our lives – as a practice of art or intimacy, as a mode of expression or release, as an iteration or an obliteration of self, as a way to play, a way to love, a way to be ordinary.

The film’s producer and co-director, Gala Vanting of Sensate Films, will be joining us after the screening for a discussion about the film and some of the issues it raises. There will be time for audience Q&A as well.

The Kennington Walk, aka Princes and Paupers - Saturday 3rd Oct at 10.45 outside Kennington tube station. £10, £8 concs.

Could you flag up that I am leading the a Kennington walk Princes and Paupers, Saturday  3rd Oct at 10.45 outside Kennington tube station. £10, £8 concs.
The Kennington Walk, aka Princes and Paupers: This walk around lovely Kennington that takes in a rare spirit door, Rural Economy, Charlie Chaplin and the worst disaster of the Blitz in Lambeth. There’s an Indian restaurant that is patronised by MPs of all parties, and it finishes conveniently close to a friendly pub that serves food. We get to spend time in a park, walk through a Farmers’ Market, find out where Pierce Brosnan started his acting career, and shiver to tales of public executions. What more could you want?

Thanks
