WEDNESDAY 8th: Sacha Baron Cohen’s Brunoopens wide. Following the mixture of mockumentary and real-life pranks of Boratbut replacing the misogynist/antisemitic Kazakhstani reporter with an uber-camp fashion reporter from Austria, the film is bound to offend, I dunno, rednecks and gays without a sense of humour.
THURSDAY 9th: Style Wars, a doco on the birth of hip-hop culture plays at the ACMI until Sunday 12th. Shot in NYC in the early 1980s, Tony Silver’s groundbreaking film documented the new language of hip hop – graffiti, rap, breakdance. [ACMI]
FRIDAY 10th: Two recently released comedies that didn’t get much notice but we gave very good reviews for, Adventurelandand Observe and Reportare showing as a double bill at Astor. [Astor]
SUNDAY 12th: Mad Max and Mad Max 2: The Roadwarrior are showing at the Astor. [Astor]
Screener. Movie stuff.
