‘Let’s Talk Film’ is a social film night at The Electric Palace, a regular space for film fans to meet up in Hastings and discuss all things film!
Whether you’re a budding cinephile or a seasoned filmgoer then this an inviting opportunity to share your love for cinema through informal discussion in an open space and take a closer look at the life and work of the auteurs of the big screen – the individuals behind the camera who have called the shots and crafted cinema experiences that have enthralled generations of moviegoers.
This month, as part of our October Brat Pack Season and hot on the heels of the recent documentary Brats, directed by Andrew McCarthy, we are delighted to celebrate these ’80s icons!
Love them or loathe them, John Hughes and the Bratpack films made an impact on ’80s teen culture and have diehard fans to this day! Join us for an entertaining romp through the history of these films from the early examples such as The Outsiders and Sixteen Candles through to classics from The Breakfast Club, St Elmos Fire, Pretty in Pink alongside lesser known titles like About Last Night, She’s Having a Baby and Some Kind of Wonderful.
With special guest Ilona Cheshire, season curator and ex-BFi programmer.
