Big Screen Auckland

Description

Two film fans get together almost weekly to discuss what they've seen, what they liked (or not), what else is on that interests them and what is coming up on Auckland's Big Screens. Paying specific attention to Festivals, large - such as the New Zealand International Film Festival, World Cinema Showcase & so on - and small - the French Film Fest, Windows On Europe, Documentary Edge Fest, etc...Being huge fans of Cult Cinema events such as Ant Timpson's 24 Hour Movie Marathon & the 48 Hours Film Competition, anything hosted under the Incredibly Strange banner is likely to be covered. Visiting a plethora of theatres in Auckland; Academy, Rialto, Lido, Capitol, Civic Theatre, Victoria Picture Palace...and they aren't scared of the Event Multiplex, either. The one thing you won't find is the word "Review".
