The Outrun with Nora Fingscheidt and Amy Liptrot | Picturehouse

Freda Cooper talks to director Nora Fingscheidt and writer Amy Liptrot about their new film The Outrun, starring Saoirse Ronan and Paapa Essiedu, in cinemas now.

Based on the best-selling memoir by Amy Liptrot, THE OUTRUN is set in the otherworldly Orkney islands of Scotland. A brutally honest drama about addiction and recovery, strength and survival, mental health and the ability of the sea, the land and of people to restore life and renew hope.

After a decade away in London, 29-year-old Rona returns home to the Orkney Islands. Sober but lonely, she tries to suppress her memory of the events which set her on this journey of recovery. Slowly the mystical land enters her inner world and – one day at a time – Rona finds hope and strength in herself among the heavy gales and the bracingly cold sea.

10 Things I Hate About You with Gil Junger | Picturehouse

Lucy Fenwick Elliott speaks to director Gil Junger about his feature debut 10 Things I Hate About You, which celebrates it's 25th anniversary this year, and his current work at The Breakthru Company.

On the first day at his new school, Cameron instantly falls for the popular Bianca. But his uncool status as the new kid in town isn’t the only thing preventing him from asking her out: Bianca is forbidden to date until her older sister Kat does too – and the fiery feminist Kat’s got no plans to do so.

In an attempt to solve his problem, Cameron singles out the only man in school who could possibly be a match for Kat: the school’s mysterious bad boy.

Tickets for our Q&A screening with Gil Junger on 19 September.

Lee with Ellen Kuras | Picturehouse

Lucy Fenwick Elliott speaks to director Ellen Kuras about her new film Lee, cinemas now, starring Kate Winslet. 

LEE tells the story of Lee Miller, American photographer.Determined to document the truth of the Nazi regime, and in spite of the odds stacked against female correspondents, Lee captured some of the most important images of World War II, for which she paid an enormous personal price. The film is not a biopic, instead it explores the most significant decade of Lee Miller’s life.

As a middle-aged woman, she refused to be remembered as a model and male artists’ muse. Lee Miller defied the expectations and rules of the time and travelled to Europe to report from the frontline.There, in part as a reaction to her own well-hidden trauma, she used her Rolleiflex camera to give a voice to the voiceless.

What Lee captured on film in Dachau and throughout Europe was shocking and horrific.Her photographs of the war, its victims and its consequences remain among the most significant and historically important of the Second World War.She changed war photography forever, but Lee paid an enormous personal price for what she witnessed and the stories she fought to tell.
