Narropera – ‘The Devil’s Marksman’ (Der Freischütz) – POSTPONED @ Peel Centenary Centre
May 23 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Dorothee Jansen, Sopran, Floriane Peycelon,Violine, Haydn Rawstron, Klavier; Kammermusiksaal Beethovenhaus Bonn . 19. Januar 2019

 

The CENTENARY CENTRE welcomes back The Narropera Trio  (Dorothee Jansen, Floriane Peycelon and Haydn Rawstron) with Weber’s ‘The Devil’s Marksman’ (Der Freischütz).
This is the Trio’s 102nd narropera performance. Dorothee Jansen has sung at La Scala, Milan, and in the opera houses of Munich, Paris, Geneva, Bologna and Cologne among many other prestigious locations. Der Freischütz is a totally absorbing, gothic story of good and evil, with some of the most beautiful music ever written for an opera, music that is highly enjoyable even on a first hearing.
Der Freischütz was first performed in Berlin in 1821 and was an instant sensation. Within ten years, it had stormed Europe, performed in nine different languages. By 1850, it had been produced in Sydney, Cape Town and Rio de Janeiro and in 1874 was first produced as far afield as New Zealand, in Wellington.
Carl Maria von Weber’s position in history is eternally guaranteed, as founder of German Romantic Opera. He was a first cousin of Mozart’s wife, and the wider Weber family was famously musical. Born in 1786, he died at the age of 40, in 1826, one year before Beethoven (56) and two years before Schubert (31). What the world missed out on, through the early deaths of these three composers, is unimaginable!

plus another 41 award wins & 87 nominations.

Shoplifters, winner of the 2018 Cannes Palme d’Or, is a must-see film by Japanese master filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda. Kore-eda is well known for his mastery of telling unique, heartbreaking stories that examine the subject of the family and the complex ways that they can be reconstructed. Shoplifters is an enchanting and devasting masterpiece, blurring the divide between the unforgivable and understandable.

Osamu (Lily Franky), Nobuyo (Sakura Ando), Aki (Mayu Matsuoka), and Shota (Jyo Kairi) all live under the roof of grandma Hatsue (Kirin Kiki), living off her pension and the menial labor jobs Osamu and Nobuyo hold down. To make ends meet, the family shoplifts nearly all of their food, with young Shota and patriarch Osamu bringing home most of the ill-begotten bacon. One night they spot a young girl (Miyu Sasaki), alone outside. It’s not the first time they’ve seen her there and she shows clear signs of abuse. Fearing for her safety in the cold, they take her home with them and informally adopt her.

So begins a year in the life of a highly dysfunctional family living on the poverty line in Tokyo. As Kore-eda delicately lulls the viewer with each scene he leaves subtle and disquieting clues about each character’s past, revealing to us that nothing about this unconventional family is as it seems.

“Every scene adds another onion-skinlike layer, adding density and mass so slowly that you hardly notice the emotional weight of it all until it is suddenly overwhelming.” – Emily Yoshida, Vulture

“The spirits of the old masters pervade this disquieting but deeply moving drama. But Kore-eda stands alone as the chronicler of family life in a country facing an identity crisis.” – David Parkinson, Empire

Hotel Mumbai (2019) - POSTPONED @ Centenary Centre | Peel | Isle of Man

FILM STARTS AT 7:45PM. DOORS AND BAR OPEN 7:00PM.

Runtime: 2hr 3min || Cert: 15
Drama, History, Thriller

Online Tickets | Facebook Event| Trailer

A gripping true story of humanity and heroism, ‘Hotel Mumbai’ vividly recounts the 2008 siege of the famed Taj Hotel in the heart of Mumbai, India. Members of Lashkar-e-Taiba, intent on massacre, storm the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in a series of coordinated attacks throughout the city. Among the dedicated hotel staff is the renowned chef Hemant Oberoi (Anupam Kher) and a waiter (Academy Award-Nominee Dev Patel) who choose to risk their lives to protect their guests when the attacks break out.

Superbly directed and edited and painstakingly researched, this is a shockingly realistic depiction of true-life events that does not spare on savagery. It paralyzes the viewer with genuine terror as extremists slowly and quietly invade the premises, hunting down everyone, making anyone a target. Unsparing in its depiction of violence and carnage, the movie meets an even greater challenge showing the myriad of ways people from all classes and cultures united and found the courage and strength to survive.

“It is a chilling, blood-splattered real-life horror show revisited. But it never jumps the gun and stays firmly focused on the human facet of the drama” – Saibal Chatterjee, NDTV

“‘Hotel Mumbai’ Is a Gripping, Deeply Humane Depiction of Real-Life Terrorism” – Rex Reed, The Observer

“No amount of words that can convey the sense of the film, because it is such a gut-punch of emotion… Just go see Hotel Mumbai — you won’t regret it.” – Andy Howell, Film Threat

“Anthony Maras’ Hotel Mumbai is a jolting cinematic experience that succeeds in transporting you to Mumbai’s worst encounter with brutality.” – Mark Kermode, The Guardian

Nominated for the 2020 BAFTA Best Documentary, cinematic space event film 50 years in the making. Featuring never-before-seen large-format footage. An astounding and beautiful documentary about one of humanity’s greatest accomplishments, the iconic mission to the moon. The events span from the eleventh hour preparations for the launch to shortly after the safe touchdown of the capsule with its three astronauts back on Earth. The mission is historic as the first time humans had stepped on the surface of the Earth’s moon. Sit back and marvel!!

“★★★★★ An exceptional, vibrant restoration of never-before-seen footage results in one of the most astounding films about space ever made” – Adrian Horton, The Guardian

“This film is like a historical archive crossed with an IMAX simulator, making viewers feel like they’re part of the team that put the first man on the moon.” – Tara McNamara, Common Sense Media

“Apollo 11 isn’t a film about the facts and stats of the mission to reach the moon. Instead, it’s about how it feels to be in space and on the ground as history is made. Stunning, stirring stuff.” – Ian Freer, Empire

“Apollo 11 isn’t like other documentaries about the first moon mission. In fact it isn’t like most other movies, period. It’s magnificent and unique, an adrenaline shot of wonder and skill.” – Matt Seotz, Rogerebert.com

“This doesn’t just feel like a movie. It gives you the sensation that you’ve been transported right into the middle of history.” – David Fear, Rolling Stone
