Casino Royale City OKs its part of Veterans Memorial Park sewer project tom Joyce Staff RepoRteR A sewer project is not something that tends to evoke joy, but the finalizing of plans for a long-awaited extension to Veterans Memorial Park here has “tickled” a park repre- sentative. The Mount Airy Board of Commissioners approved a city government commitment to design and install a sewer line to the facility in a unanimous vote Thursday night. Documents show the anticipated cost of the gravity sew- er line is $97,200, with the municipality agreeing to pro- vide 40 percent of the expense and manage the project. The county government is supplying 60 percent of the funding. The park leadership had sought the project for a long time without success to serve a facility that hosts large an- nual events such as the Surry County Agricultural Fair and Mount Airy Fiddlers Convention. An old septic system now serves the park on West Leba- non Street, the holding tanks for which must be pumped out several times a week when such activities are held. Local veterans have managed the park for about 70 years and say the absence of a suitable sewer system is preventing opera- tions there from expanding.

Given the predisposition horror movies, Monstrous Children examines films of horror films to give a voice (albeit an often violent “which reveal something generative and unsettling by one) to marginalized people, repressed groups in (re)moving, at least momentarily, the two-faced mask Western society are a natural fit for the genre.

  • Rétrospective John Huston 8 Juin – 31 Juillet 2016
    Dossier de presse RÉTROSPECTIVE JOHN HUSTON 8 JUIN – 31 JUILLET 2016 Aventurier de la pellicule, John Huston est l’auteur d’une œuvre hétéroclite et surprenante. S’il sert les genres du cinéma hollywoodien (le film noir en particulier avec Le Faucon maltais ou Quand la Ville dort) il se lance aussi dans des projets ambitieux d’adaptations littéraires (Moby Dick, Le Malin, Au-dessous du volcan) tout autant que dans d’improbables coproductions internationales. L’hétérogénéité de son cinéma en fait un auteur qui a su singulièrement dépasser les conventions du classicisme. Jeudi 09 juin 19h CONFÉRENCE (Voir page 3) « L’OEIL DES MONSTRES.

    MoMA | press | Releases | 2000 | The Loss of Childhood Innocense Examined in Film Ex... Page 1 of 18 THE LOSS OF CHILDHOOD INNOCENSE EXAMINED IN FILM EXHIBITION For Immediate Release September 2000 The Lost Childhood October 5–December 14, 2000 The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters 1 and 2 Childhood has been a favorite subject of filmmakers since the beginning of cinema. The Lost Childhood explores the period from 1955 to the present, when the nineteenth-century’s romanticized notion of the virginal, visionary child, so prevalent in films made before World War II, gave way to images of children hardened by war and harsh circumstances. This exhibition features approximately 50 feature films, shorts, experimental films, documentaries, and videos, from countries as far ranging as Brazil, Bulgaria, France, Hungary, India, Japan, and Mexico, and includes a diversity of genres, from horror to comedy, to the coming of age story and the fairy tale. The series is on view in The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters 1 and 2 from October 5 through December 14, 2000. The Lost Childhood is a part of Open Ends, the final cycle of MoMA2000, and is organized by Joshua Siegel, Assistant Curator, Department of Film and Video. In the films and videos of The Lost Childhood, which takes its name from a short story by Graham Greene, adults are seen as either abusive and unloving, or immaturely self-absorbed, and therefore incapable of providing children with the comfort and protection they need. Home is seen as a place of violence and betrayal, not sanctuary, and so children are compelled to take flight in their dreams or take to the open road.

  • Celebrating Forty Years of Films Worth Talking About
    7 DEC 18 10 JAN 19 1 | 7 DEC 18 - 10 JAN 19 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSEcinema.COM CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS OF FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT Lang may yer lums reek! Well, that’s another year of astonishing cinema (almost) out of the way – almost out of the way, that is, rather than almost astonishing – though there’s is still a good bit of it to go, depending of course when you are reading this. What’s for sure is there’s no lapse in quality as the year fades away, what with Robert Redford (in what he is calling his final film as an actor) as septuagenarian bank robber Forrest Tucker in the witty and charming The Old Man & the Gun; another masterpiece in the filmography of Nuri Bilge Ceylan, The Wild Pear Tree; an exclusive week of screenings of Alfonso Cuarón’s (deservedly) hugely anticipated Roma (courtesy of Netflix); and the usual assortment of seasonal favourites, which would never be complete without Frank Capra’s evergreen It’s a Wonderful Life. Our all-too-brief Billy Wilder retro comes to a close with a restored The Apartment, and, as per, I’ve indulged myself by selecting my films of the past year, which ably demonstrates what a great year of cinema it has been. And 2019 gets off to an unbelievably good start with Yorgos Lanthimos’ scabrously (sorry I nicked that word from The Guardian review; oh, and The Telegraph review…) funny period-piece-like-no-other. As it is the close of the year, I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you all for being such a great audience over the last twelve months.
