FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT

HOME OF THE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL You’ll remember, remember, this month of November...

Every month we have a staff meeting where my colleagues in the programming department and I meet with the other departments essential to the communication of our monthly programme to those we would hope to engage with it (that last group is you, by the way, dear reader!). Much of that meeting is, I guess, me prattling on about what’s coming up and them listening (one hopes, whilst occasionally being asked the names of films and directors that I am unable to mentally access in the heat of the moment), but I do get a sense of how much anticipation there is in the room for the upcoming programme, which in turn gives me an idea of how it might go down with you, our audience. It always goes down well with the staff... but, suffice to say, this particular programme went down particularly well, which now has me full of expectation as to the most important thing: what y’all might make of it.

But what was it got them so enthusiastic? Was it the brilliant Joker, screening here exclusively (in Edinburgh) on a 70mm print? Was it our latest celebrations/festivals of French and German cinema, cleverly juxtaposed with the very month the UK exits the EU*? Or ’s searing, righteous ode to the zero-hours worker, Sorry We Missed You? Was it the inclusion of the absolute stonewall EIFF 2019 staff favourite, the marvellous The Biggest Little Farm? Or perhaps it’s the fact that, exclusively again in Edinburgh, we’ll be showing a number of brilliant titles - David Michôd’s Timothée Chalamet- starring The King; ’s long-awaited epic The Irishman; ’s stunning Marriage Story - on or ahead of their respective ‘bows’ on the streaming platform.

I guess it could have been one or all of those things, or indeed any of the myriad other things I haven’t space to speculate on here!

*Correct at time of going to print; and you’re right, there wasn’t anything clever about it, they are always in November!

Rod White, Head of Programming
