Second Tuesday at The Flea Pit
The next Second Run screening will take place on Tuesday 8th May 2007.
The film screened will be Jim McBride's 'My Girlfriend's Wedding'.
Jim McBride's documentary is a fascinating profile of his English girlfriend, Clarissa Ainley. With his camera almost entirely trained on her, McBride explores Clarissa's life and loves, her feelings about her parents and children, and documents her green card marriage to a man she has only known for a week. However, as the film progresses, the most revealing truths are about the person behind the camera.
Originally intended as a short, 'My Girlfriend's Wedding' is a fascinating record of a turbulent time and highlights the subjective nature of the filmmaking process. Rarely screened outside the US, this is a great opportunity to see the film.
“At the time I made it, I was fond of referring to it as a fiction film, because it was very much my personal idea of what Clarissa was like, and not at all an objective or truthful view.â€

Apologies, dmk_world, and thanks for pointing that out. I should have said the only English-subtitled DVD release of the film. I think the French release happened a year or more after ours?dmk_world wrote:I wish I lived in England. (not really, but it would be worth it for this screening)

Marc Isaacs
From the Curzon Cinemas website:
Second Run Presents: Marc Isaacs Double Bill
Certificate: 18
Duration: 120
Plus Q&A with Marc Isaacs
Curzon Cinemas and Second Run DVD have teamed up to launch a new strand, Kinématheque, committed to presenting gems of world cinema followed by filmmaker discussions. For the first event we mark Second Run’s release of the films of Marc Isaacs, one of the most important contemporary UK documentary filmmakers. Filming alone, Isaacs develops a close and revealing bond with his subjects. His characters’ (and our) prejudices are challenged by the reality he finds. The results are deeply moving, idiosyncratic views of modern Britain
Lift (cert tbc)
Director: Marc Isaacs. UK 2001. 25 mins
Encouraged by the acclaimed director Pawel Pawlikowski, Isaac’s debut is a window into the lives of people in a London high-rise council block. Sitting with his camera for days inside the tower block’s lift, the result is a gripping and humorous portrait of a ‘vertical’ multicultural community. Winner of Grierson Award and BAFTA Award Nominee for Best Newcomer 2002.
Followed by
Calais: The Last Border (cert tbc)
Director: Marc Isaacs. UK 2003. 60 mins
Calais is now an index of global economic and social realities. Isaacs weaves various portraits into a moving overview of a place defined by the island it gazes at across the Channel. Winner of Best Documentary, Berlin Film Festival 2003.

*STOP PRESS*
The lucky people of California (well, LA and its surrounds at least) have the wonderful opportunity during February to see many of our fave Czech films - in fact, they are all films which we have released on DVD - on the big screen on 35mm!
The season is called Czech Your Head and has been put together by the Cinefamily at the beautiful Silent Movie Theater and runs on every Saturday during February.
This Saturday 13th is extra-special because Ivan Passer will attend and introduce the screening of his sublime INTIMATE LIGHTING.
All the details can be found here (and, yes, it says a 35mm screening of MARKETA LAZAROVA too!). Hurry.

I can't tell you how jealous we are of all you Angelinos. Please please go and see the films and let us know what happened at the screenings. And tell them about Second Run. And tell Mr Passer how much we love his film.
