Original title: Nuovo Cinema Paradiso The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou
In the absence of Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch (much delayed) our film officer and programmer John has gone for one of the director’s earlier films and one not previously shown at the RBCFT. John says, ‘I love Anderson’s style, the composition of his shots, and the skewed sense of humour. The Life Aquatic… is possibly his most under-rated film (and it wasn't very successful either), it’s the tale of an oceanographer (Bill Murray) who plans to exact revenge on a mythical shark that killed his partner. The cast, the music (featuring David Bowie songs performed by a Portuguese singer), the costumes – and hats – are superb.’ Possessor
Cronenberg + Horror = What's Not To Like! Possesor is a science fiction psychological horror film written and directed by Brandon Cronenberg (son of David). The film follows an agent (Andrea Riseborough) who works for a secretive organization that uses brain-implant technology to inhabit other people's bodies - ultimately driving them to commit assassinations for high-paying clients. “The director’s thrillingly ingenious tale of mind-invasion technology barrels towards the most outrageous final twist imaginable.” **** The Guardian Before Midnight
Before Midnight is the final part of the Before trilogy, which consists of three films directed by Richard Linklater (Boyhood) starring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy as lovers Jesse and Céline at three different parts of their lives. Before Sunset is screening on Sun 22 November and Before Sunrise will be shown on Sun 6 December 2020. Idiot Prayer - Nick Cave Alone At The Alexandra Palace
Idiot Prayer - Nick Cave Alone at Alexandra Palace sees Nick Cave play his songs at the piano in a rarely seen stripped back form, from early Bad Seeds and Grinderman, right through to the most recent Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds album, Ghosteen. The film features tracks including Into My Arms, The Mercy Seat, Higgs Boson Blues and Girl In Amber. Recorded in June 2020 and initially imagined as an online only event, fans will now be able to watch the film in cinemas as an extended cut featuring four unseen performances. MLK / FBI

At 10.30am we present a short film or collection of short films/TV programmes for really wee ones, and at 12.00pm we show a feature film for slightly older children who can sit through 90minutes or more.
Before Midnight is the third film in the Before trilogy directed by Richard Linklater. We meet Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Céline (Julie Delpy) nine years on in Greece. Almost two decades have passed since their first meeting on that train bound for Vienna.
