Film Society

Film Society

Late night film screenings will be held regularly at Victoria this year.

Film Society secretary Adrian Chapman said the move will not only allow the society to use the Memorial Theatre more often for films, but will also meet the demand for those who want to relax after a full night's work in the library.

The screenings will be held at 11pm and will not just feature films of the usual "late right horror" type.

The films selected for the new time include The Fixer, Lolita, Crains are Flying, Don't make Waves, Woman of the Dunes, Taste of Honey, and Eye of the Cat. This year the Film Society will operate as a full member of the Unicine circuit, which distributes films to four universities.

These include the first uncut print of Fellini's La Dolce Vita, which has not been seen in New Zealand for five years, and the film of Finnegan's Wake.

Other notable films on the year's programme are Diary of a Shinjuku Thief, a sensational new Japanese production, A Thousand Clowns, The Game is Over, the sexy Swedish comedy Hugs and Kisses, Ulysses, Barrier, Before the Revolution, the 1939 anti-war classic All Quiet on the Western Front and Hitchcock's The Birds.
