'The QUIET GIRL' Ireland 95 mins (M)
Set in 1981, this film tells the story of a young girl, Cáit, who is sent away for the summer from her dysfunctional family to live with "her mother's people". These are Seán and Eibhlín Cinnsealach; a middle-aged couple she has never met. Slowly, in the care of this couple, Cáit blossoms and discovers a new way of living, but in this house where affection grows and there are meant to be no secrets, she discovers one.
"This is filmmaking at its most alchemical, turning every ingredient to gold -- even if it is green, the vivid color of the lush trees everywhere on the Kinsellas’ farm, that is the color lingering behind your eyelids as the credits roll." Hollywood
"The Quiet Girl is an impeccably made film, mysterious and harsh in its revelations, among which a disenchanted idea stands out... "you don't always find happiness with your biological family." Variety
"Catherine Clinch delivers an unforgettable and tender performance. Stephen Rennick’s dreamy score with lush melodies
provides an ethereal atmosphere. A must-see." Guardian

'The AFRICAN QUEEN' Directed by JohnHuston. Starring Humphrey Bogart and Katharine Hepburn 1951 95 mins PG
Adapted from a novel by C S Forester,
In WWI East Africa, a gin-swilling Canadian riverboat captain is persuaded by a strait-laced English missionary to undertake a trip up a treacherous river and use his boat to attack a German gunship.
After religious spinster's (Katharine Hepburn) missionary brother is killed in WWI Africa, dissolute steamer captain (Humphrey Bogart) offers her safe passage. She's not satisfied so she persuades him to destroy a German gunboat. The two spend most of their time fighting with each other rather than the Germans. Time alone on the river leads to love.
