SUMMARY:Brighton Astro: The Second-Life of Planetary Systems
DESCRIPTION:DOORS: 7.00pm\n\n\n\nLECTURE: 7.30pm\n\n\n\n\nRegister to Attend\n\n\n\nPlease only come along if you’ve signed up\, as we’re limited on space so won’t be able to fit anyone else in. \n\n\n\n\n\nDefying the notion of the silent graveyard\, planetary systems refuse to die quietly. Instead\, a significant fraction show one or more signs of dynamical reanimation\, with strong indications of general mayhem during the last stages of stellar evolution. The lecture will give a brief tour of these evolved and active planetary systems\, which provide major insights into rocky planetary bodies in particular.\n\n\n\nThese descendants of intermediate-mass stars reveal characteristics of their former planetary systems in ways unattainable by conventional methods using main-sequence stars. In particular\, the metal pollution observed in white dwarf stars reveals the bulk chemistry of entire planetesimals or planetary fragments\, including compelling evidence for Earth-like chemistry\, planetary differentiation\, and believe it or not – water. This talk will cover some of the highlights of the active planetary graveyard\, including variability and transient behaviour. \n\n\n\nJay Farihi hails from Southern California\, where he did his PhD at UCLA searching for substellar companions to white dwarf stars using infrared imaging. He held a postdoctoral position at Gemini Observatory on the big island of Hawaii\, and was a senior fellow at the Institute for Astronomy in Cambridge. He was awarded an STFC Ernest Rutherford Fellowship in 2012 and joined the faculty of UCL in 2013\, where he is now professor. He is best known for his role in establishing the field of planetary systems orbiting white dwarfs\, especially using infrared observations to establish the presence and nature of their planetesimal debris disks\, and how these link to the heavy element pollution seen in their atmospheres. He enjoys hardcore punk and metal\, is a whisky fanatic\, loves to travel\, and has spent over 150 nights on summits pursuing his own research programs. \n\n\n\nIf you sign up via meetup but can no longer attend\, please update your status to say that you are no longer attending so that someone on the waiting list gets a place. \n\n\n\nPlease only come along if you’ve signed up\, as we’re limited on space so won’t be able to fit anyone else in. \n\n\n\nWagner Hall is on on Regency Road\, Brighton.Attendance is free\, but we would be grateful if those of you who are able to could donate a few pounds to help cover the cost of hiring this event space. We will have a card reader and a money box you can drop your donations in on the night. We also have a bank account you can donate to electronically. \n\n\n\nPlease note that the venue has a bar.

SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: Oliver Stone's THE DOORS
DESCRIPTION:THE FINAL CUT – 4K REMASTER – VAL KILMER TRIBUTE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease note. Doors for this event are 7pm when we will be starting the evening off early with drinks and a DJ playing a selection of mid 60s to early 70s tunes to get you in the mood in our beer garden. \n\n\n\n\n\nPerhaps the most remarkable acting performance in a biopic in the history of cinema\, the recently departed Val Kilmer truly embodies the legendary Doors frontman Jim Morrison in this sensational new cut and 4k remaster\, from renowned director Oliver Stone.\n\n\n\n\nAlready a voice of cinematic counter culture writing such scripts as Midnight Express and Scarface\, as a director Stone would re-define Americas vision of itself through popular cinema\, documenting key moments in the countries checkered history with films like Salvador\, Platoon\, Wall Street\, Born on the Fourth of July\, JFK\, Natural Born Killers and more. The Doors sits right in the centre of this legendary run of cinematic masterpieces and captures all sides of the mythology of a cultural icon who has perhaps more than anybody else come to define our understanding of the word ‘ rockstar’.  \n\n\n\n\nA true ode to the 60s and The Lizard King that sat atop it\, this spectacularly entertaining kaleidoscopic journey through the era is underpinned by Kilmer’s breathtakingly uncanny performance and aided by an exceptional supporting cast that includes Meg Ryan (When Harry Met Sally…)\, Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks\, Blue Velvet) Frank Whaley (Field Of Dreams)\, Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs\, Kill Bill 1&2)\, and even a real life rock star in Billy Idol.  \n\n\n\n​Spectacular concert scenes\, brilliant production design recreations of legendary 60s locations and Stone’s trademark lyrical version of history all add up to an intoxicating thrill-ride through the short but eventful life of Morrison that absolutely demands big screen viewing thanks to Stone’s highly cinematic eye and Kilmer’s astonishing performance. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nDOORS\, DRINKS\, DJS FROM: 6.30pm*\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 8.10pm*\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 138 mins\n\n\n\nCERT: 18\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets & More Info

SUMMARY:Brighton Fringe: The Maydays - Happily Never After
DESCRIPTION:The Maydays return to the Fringe with their 5-star improvised show – Happily Never After – a ‘darkly comedic’ twisted musical tale inspired by gothic themes\, fairytales\, and the warped imaginations that brought us Lemony Snicket\, Beetlejuice\, Shockheaded Peter and Grimm’s Tales.\n\n\n\nPlucked from the seed of your suggestion\, The Maydays will take you on a unique journey – weaving a gothic tale that’s completely different every time. There’s no telling what strange characters\, innocent beasts or talking objects you might meet along the way! \n\n\n\nThe Maydays have been wow-ing audiences across the UK and Europe\, with packed houses and standing ovations\, for their spontaneous show that Reviews Hub called ‘touching\, incredibly funny’\, and ‘rich in narrative twists and charm’. \n\n\n\nWith a bespoke\, improvised soundtrack for every show\, this will be a truly creepy\, mischievous and fantastical experience. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS / VENUE INFO / ACCESSIBILITY\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDOORS – 7.00pm | SHOW – 7.30pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFantastic performances … improvisational theatre at its best.  Broadway Baby\, ★★★★★ \n\n\n\nEmotionally touching\, incredibly funny\, rich in narrative twists and charm.  The Reviews Hub\, ★★★★★ \n\n\n\nDark and hilarious\, The Maydays prove yet again that they are maestros of their craft.  The Wee Review\, ★★★★

SUMMARY:Café Scientifique: The Quantum Universe
DESCRIPTION:With Prof Stephen Wilkins\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 7.00pm\n\n\n\nSPEAKER: 7.30pm\n\n\n\n\nIMPORTANT \nPlease ensure you REGISTER prior to attending! \n\n\n\n\nRegister to Attend\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nQuantum physics is a fundamental theory that describes the behaviour of nature at and below the scale of atoms. Celebrating 100 years since initial developments\, the United Nations proclaimed 2025 as the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology. As part of these celebrations I will introduce how quantum physics is essential to our understanding of the Cosmos\, focussing on two examples.First\, the process of nuclear fusion is responsible for the majority energy generation in stars; however the temperatures in stellar interiors are too low for this to happen “classically”. However\, the phenomenon of quantum tunnelling enables atomic nuclei to fuse even if they don’t have the required energies.Second\, our Universe is replete with structures in the form of planets\, stars\, galaxies and clusters. These structures are thought to caused by amplification by the process of inflation of minuscule quantum fluctuations present in the very early Universe. \n\n\n\nStephen Wilkins is a Professor of Astronomy and Public Understanding of Science at the University of Sussex. Stephen obtained his Masters in Physics from the University of Durham before receiving his PhD from the University of Cambridge. Stephen then worked as a research fellow at the University of Oxford before joining the faculty at Sussex in 2013.Stephen’s main research focuses on understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies\, particularly the first stages in the distant early Universe. To do this Stephen combines observations from telescopes including Webb and Hubble with supercomputer simulations. Outside his research Stephen is also a keen advocate of public understanding of science. Highlights include his leadership of three exhibits at the prestigious Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition and dozens of talks. \n\n\n\nDoors and bar open 7:00pm\n\n\n\nPlease note that we are entirely dependent on donations from those who attend our events. You can make a donation as you arrive or leave; we are happy to accept cash or card payments. All donations greatly appreciated!

SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: DESPERATELY SEEKING SUSAN
DESCRIPTION:40TH ANNIVERSARY\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCelebrating 17 years of Brighton’s favourite 80s party and the city’s longest running weekly club night (Every Saturday at Green Door Store) ‘It Is Still 1985’ is marking both their own longevity and the fact that the year they are named after (1985) is now exactly 40 years ago by teaming up with us at White Wall Cinema to create a new movie club for 2025 that screens a selection of movies celebrating their 40th anniversary on a limited number of select dates across this year.\n\n\n\nA bonafide member of the first wave of American 80s-era independent filmmakers\, Susan Siedelman was just coming down from the success of her first film ‘Smithereens’ (the first American independent film to be selected for competition at Canne) a gritty and humorous look at New York’s Bohemian post-punk music scene\, when she stumbled upon her next film and truly captured pop culture lightning in a bottle. Against the studios wishes she refused a who’s who list of stars lined up for the film’s lead roles opting instead to cast two unknowns in the shape of Rosanna Arquette and Siedelman’s neighbour at the time Madonna. Arquette of course would go on to be a major movie star (credits include Scorsese’s After Hours\, Besson’s The Big Blue\, Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction and Cronenberg’s Crash) but it was Madonna\, still exuding the hyper cool of New York street fashion\, cool in a way that only a newly minted popstar on the verge of mega-fame can be\, that set audiences alight in 1985.  \n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 7.50pm*\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 8.30pm*\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 104 mins\n\n\n\nCERT: 15 (Under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets & More Info

SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: THE FRENCH CONNECTION
DESCRIPTION:Winner of 5 Oscars including Best Picture\, Best Director and Best Actor for the late great Gene Hackman (Unforgiven\, Mississippi Burning\, The Conversation\, The Royal Tenenbaums) we pay tribute to this titan of the acting world at the peak of his powers. Extraordinarily directed by the also recently departed William Friedkin\, the no-nonsense genius who also gave us classics like The Exorcist\, The Boys In The Band\, Cruising\, To Live and Die in L.A. and Sorcerer\, The French Connection is a landmark film featuring a towering performance from Hackman and the best car chase sequence ever committed to celluloid.\n\n\n\nWhen rough and tumble cop Jimmy ‘Popeye’ Doyle (Hackman) and his partner Buddy ‘Cloudy’ Russo (Roy Scheider – Jaws) stumble upon a narcotics ring in early 70s New York the obsessive Doyle sets about busting it up and taking down the smugglers bringing in heroine from Marseille. Realistic\, fast-paced and uncommonly smart it ushered in a new gritty era of cinema that would lead to the greatest ever era of American films. \n\n\n\nRepeatedly listed in the American film institutes top 100 movies of all time\, this neo-noir masterpiece has influenced everyone from Akira Kurosawa to Steven Spielberg to David Fincher. Garnering more than 20+ major film awards (including the aforementioned 5 Oscars) The French Connection is a keystone of American cinematic culture and a big screen must for movie fans of all stripes\, as well as being a fitting tribute to one of America’s greatest all-time screen actors\, Gene Hackman. \n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 7.30pm\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 8.10pm\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 104 mins\n\n\n\nCERT: 18\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets & More Info

SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: DIDI
DESCRIPTION:The trick of Sean Wang’s brilliant debut film Didi is that it is both a coming of age movie for anyone who’s ever been a teenager\, as well as being a deeply accurate portrait of what it was like for the first generation that grew up online. In what feels like a spiritual sequel to Jonah Hill’s ‘Mid90s’ and a prequel to Bo Burnham’s ‘Eighth Grade’\, 2008 is depicted with heartfelt and deadly accuracy as young Didi grows up in a world of Facebook & MySpace whilst still facing the timeless agonies of being a teenager.\n\n\n\nSublimely written and performed\, Didi boasts a brilliant lead in the shape of its young lead Izaac Wang\, who must learn to navigate the tricky teenage questions of understanding your cultural identity\, how to flirt with girls\, how to skateboard\, and how to get along with your mother\, (played here beautifully by the marvellous Joan Chen of Twin Peaks fame). \n\n\n\nLiving with his sister\, mother and (the director’s own real-life) grandmother\, Didi’s life reflects both a highly personal statement from director Sean Wang\, but also an extraordinarily moving and universal portrait of the joy and chaos of being 13 whilst trying to be cool. Tender\, funny\, and painful Wang’s film is a triumphant and definitive portrait of a very recent bygone era that gives us a wonderfully salient insight into the past\, the present and the future of teenage life. \n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 7.20pm*\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 8pm*\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 91 mins\n\n\n\nCERT: 15 (Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets & More Info

SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: THE KEEP + THE FOG
DESCRIPTION:LATE NIGHT DOUBLE BILL – BANK HOLIDAY SUNDAY (NO WORK MONDAY!)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhite Wall Cinema’s first ever late night screening we have twinned two supernatural horror classics\, one hard-to-find\, long lost gem by one of cinema’s coolest directors\, and one much loved favourite by a horror master which we will sync up the time and date of the story with the actual time and date of the screening for extra spookiness!\n\n\n\nThe night begins with a super special screening of the long lost recently unearthed 1983 Michael Mann (Miami Vice\, Heat\, Collateral\, Manhunter) film The Keep. Hard to find and rarely screened\, this fabled holy grail of cinema follows a group of Nazi soldiers who occupy a small village in the Carpathian Mountains during World War II\, only to find the fortress they are so keen on setting up camp in wasn’t built to keep them out\, but was actually constructed to keep something evil in!  \n\n\n\nThis will be followed by an all time classic from legendary horror director John Carpenter’s (Halloween\, The Thing\, They Live\, Escape From New York). The Fog is the spooky tale of a small Californian coastal town celebrating it’s centenary which marks not only the 100th anniversary of the town\, but also of a supernatural fog that descended following a mysterious ship wreck in the area. This unearthly fog now returns bringing with it dangerous spectres hell-bent on seeking retribution. \n\n\n\nPlease Note: There will be a short interval between the films but patrons will only be able to enter prior to the start of the first film..  \n\n\n\n*Please note – doors open at 9pm in advance of screening time in order to give patrons extra time to enjoy safely purchase food & drink\, take a look at our archive movie store and to allow gradual entry to your seats in a safe and easy way. Please try to allow extra time to get seated prior to the performance start time of 9.30pm.
