    All 12 hours of the legendary French film Out 1 are playing over a weekend in the IFI next month.

    A full house for Brief Encounter at Lighthouse this afternoon... Brought my teenage daughter and her pal - whenever I can, I like to show em that a movie doesn't need to have vampires or werewolves or vampires AND werewolves to be entertaining... They loved it!

    Great cinema experience, I love these Classic screenings...

    It isn't a patch on the 18 hour Directors Cut.

    Seen it yesterday, was packed also (my first time ever seeing it).

    First Blood tomorrow night.

    First Blood tomorrow night.

    Was my first time too. I had planned to watch it about a month or so ago when I just happened to notice that it was to be shown at the Lighthouse, some kind soul posted it here. So I held off to see it for the first time on the big screen. Very enjoyable movie.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,389 ✭✭✭NachoBusiness


    Just noticed The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years is being shown tonight in the Lighthouse.




    Scrooged on the same time though. Gremlins on at 5:30 today also.

    Went to die hard last night with a friend. Better then 95% of the movies we have seen in the last few years. Even though I had seen it millions of times it felt like a completely different level of enjoyable movie.

    Will definitely try and get to more of these golden oldies at the lighthouse.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    Yeah, went to Die Hard during the week. Fantastic, even better than I remember tbh.

    Lighthouse is hands down the best cinema in Dublin.

    Well that was an experience. Like a Netflix binge watch with 40 or so strangers that happened to be an obscure 1970s French film. :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,389 ✭✭✭NachoBusiness


    Is nowhere showing Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back And Jedi? :eek:

    I know there was a Secret cinema screening a few months back of Empire but I just assumed they'd be shown on the run up to the release of The Force Awakens.

    I'll more than likely watch them myself at home but I'd have preferred even a DVD screening in some cinema.. bit of atmosphere on the run up.

    Own all of them across multiple formats. Will likely stil go to all of these screenings assuming the times are suitable. Shame Heat isn't being shown :(

    Also wonder which edit of OUATIA is being shown. It says "recently restored Director's Cut" on the website but there's so many at this stage I've lost count!

    Well it's billed as "De Niro vs Pacino Season - Round 1" so you'd never know, if we get a round 2 Heat would have to be in there i'd imagine.

    For Once Upon a Time, i'm guessing it'll be the 2012 251 minute edit?

    That's what I'd supspect alright but I hand it in my head there was a 268 min version shown somewhere in the last couple of years. Could be mistaken on that but have a vague recollection of reading it somewhere.

    Yeah i read that Scorsese was trying to help Leone's family secure the rights to a further 25 odd minutes of footage(on top of the 2012 251min version), don't know if it's ever been screened anywhere though.

    Screening of 'My Own Private Idaho' tomorrow night @ the IFI (8:30pm).

    First (and only) time I seen this was on release back in '91 @ the old Lighthouse Cinema on Abbey St.
