SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: DUNE
DESCRIPTION: DAVID LYNCH’S (1984) – 4K REMASTER \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets & More Info\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith the sad passing of a true icon of cinema in David Lynch\, this previously scheduled screening now becomes an unintended tribute to one of the great directors of all time. Despite being Lynch’s second most successful film at the box office (his highest earner was The Elephant Man) 1984’s Dune was seen as a box office bomb and remains (easily) one of Lynch’s most underappreciated works and is still (incredibly given his back catalogue) one of his most misunderstood. \n\n\n\nBuilt for the big screen Dune is a masterpiece of epic and eccentric gothic production design\, a true feast for the eyes\, with even the less well aged special effects oozing (sometimes literally) charm.  It also features an out of this world all-star cast that ranges from Twin Peaks cast members like Kyle MacLachlan\, Everett McGill\, and Jack Nance\, as well as Blue Velvet cast like Dean Stockwell and Brad Dourif mixed in with a stunning array of talent that includes Bergman regular Max Von Sydow\, Blade Runner’s Sean Young\, and Das Boot’s Jürgen Prochnow. Hell\, even Sting turns up (in some outrageously small and weird leather underpants) all offering some of the most wonderfully memorable and ‘Lynchian’ line readings in cinema history. \n\n\n\nDespite the film’s initial reception\, in 2025\, Dune’s concoction of sights and sounds\, all capped with an epic soundtrack from Brian Eno and Toto\, remains an undeniably mesmerising experience that shows one of cinema’s true iconoclasts attempting and perhaps ‘failing’ to redefine the blockbuster Sci Fi movie. Oh but what beauty there is in the failing\, Dune is a swirling dream of a movie that thrills\, confounds\, entertains and catches the viewer repeatedly off-guard. We urge you to see or re-visit this fascinating\, beguiling ride that we think contains a true epic masterpiece lurking just below the surface like a giant Sandworm in the deserts of Arrakis. Come celebrate this legend of cinema in all his eccentricity let loose with $40 million dollars ($121 million in today’s money) with this special 4K restoration screening on Saturday March 1st.  \n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 6.30pm*\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 7pm*\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 137 mins\n\n\n\nCERT: 12 (Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult)

SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: PARIS MEMORIES
DESCRIPTION: AKA – REVOIR PARIS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets & More Info\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAcclaimed director Alice Wincour (Disorder / Proxima) brings us this tale of remarkable power about Mia (Virginie Efira) a 40 something Parisian who after being caught up in a horrific gunman attack in a bistro attempts to piece back together her life and come to terms with the extreme shock of the event. Desperate to make sense of it all and for some semblance of normality\, Mia finds herself returning to the scene of the incident and forming bonds with fellow survivors in order to work through the mental puzzle of recovery.\n\n\n\nA devastatingly tender portrait of trauma the film is a remarkable cinematic study of memory and the colliding of the emotional and analytical mind in the most difficult of circumstances. Featuring an astonishingly measured central performance from the brilliant Virginie Efira (Elle / Benedetta) who unearths hope\, humanity and courage against the backdrop of a vividly captured city of light. This is a moving and exceptionally crafted film from director Alice Winocour\, who is fast becoming one of cinema’s key voices. \n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 7pm*\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 7.30pm*\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 105 mins\n\n\n\nLANGUAGE: French w English Subtitles \n\n\n\nCERT: 15 (Under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n*This screening will be followed by an optional and informal post film discussion group.*

SUMMARY:Brighton Astro - Mercury 13: The Pioneering Women Who Defied the Space Race and Fought for Their Place Among the Stars
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Tahani BaldwinUniversity of Sussex\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 7.00pm\n\n\n\nLECTURE: 7.30pm\n\n\n\n\nRegister to Attend\n\n\n\n\n\nDuring the height of the Space Race between the U.S. and the Soviet Union\, a little-known yet revolutionary program dared to defy the norms of the 1960s. Spearheaded by visionary aerospace physician Dr. William Randolph Lovelace ll\, this groundbreaking initiative sought to answer one bold question: Could women endure the physical and psychological demands of spaceflight? The answer came from thirteen extraordinary women – accomplished pilots who challenged societal expectations and excelled under gruelling tests\, often surpassing their male counterparts. Though the program was ultimately discontinued\, their resilience in the face of entrenched prejudices became a powerful and enduring symbol of progress and possibility. This Women’s History Month\, we honour these trailblazing women\, whose courage and determination not only shaped the history of human spaceflight\, but also inspired generations of explorers to reach for the stars. \n\n\n\nTahani Baldwin\, GMBPsS\, is a PhD candidate in neuroscience at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School\, with a research focus on digital interventions and behavioural change. She graduated with honours in Psychology from Aston University in 2022 and went on to complete her Master’s degree in Psychology at the University of Birmingham. Tahani’s passion for space exploration emerged during her postgraduate studies. As Chairperson of the University of Birmingham Astronomical Society\, she led initiatives to promote engagement with astronomy and space research. For her master’s thesis\, she explored the role of personality traits in stress adaptation within a simulated Martian environment. An avid space enthusiast and advocate for interdisciplinary research\, Tahani is dedicated to advancing our understanding of human behaviour in extraterrestrial contexts\, and deepening our knowledge of humanity’s place in the cosmos. \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 that sells alcohol.

SUMMARY:Café Scientifique: The teen brain - don't be afraid
DESCRIPTION:With Dr Liat Levita\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 7.15pm\n\n\n\nSPEAKER: 8.00pm\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\nAre adolescents really just thrill-seekers who struggle to learn from negative outcomes? The answer\, as we will talk about\, is a big no. I will share some exciting research from my lab\, using insights from EEG and behavioural tasks to challenge common misconceptions about teens. We will explore what these findings reveal about brain plasticity\, risk-taking\, and mental health\, and why adolescence—while for most is an age full of opportunity—can also be a time of increased vulnerability. This will be an informal and interactive talk\, so feel free to jump in with any questions\, thoughts\, or anything that fascinates you about the teenage brain! \n\n\n\nDr Liat Levita is the head of the Developmental Affective Neuroscience Lab and a Reader in Behavioural and Clinical Neuroscience at the University of Sussex. Her research takes a translational approach to understanding adolescence—a period of both immense opportunity and heightened vulnerability. By examining individual developmental trajectories from childhood through adulthood\, she investigates both normative and non-normative development\, with a focus on the impact of early life stress on well-being. She also studies the emergence of mental health pathologies\, using a combination of brain imaging and psychophysiological methods (e.g.\, heart rate). She has held academic positions at the Universities of York\, Sheffield\, and Sussex\, following postdoctoral research at Cornell\, Columbia\, and Emory Universities. She earned her PhD from the University of Cambridge and BSc in Neuroscience from the University of St Andrews. \n\n\n\nDoors and bar open 7:15pm\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: INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS + ANOTHER DAY ANOTHER TIME
DESCRIPTION:  GREENWICH VILLAGE DOUBLE BILL \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow that Timothée Chalamet has done us all the service of bringing Bob Dylan’s Greenwich Village back into the cultural conversation we finally have an excuse to screen the greatest piece of film about said 1960s folk cultural hotbed in the shape of one of the finest Coen Brothers films (Fargo\, Big Lebowski\, O Brother\, Where Art Thou?\, No Country for Old Men\, Burn After Reading\, True Grit etc) the glorious Inside Llewyn Davis starring Oscar Isaac & Carey Mulligan.\n\n\n\nNot only that but the evening will continue with the screening of a very special companion piece film ‘Another Day\, Another Time’ celebrating the folk music explosion in early 60s New York featuring a who’s who of musicians (Joan Baez\, Marcus Mumford\, Punch Brothers\, Patti Smith\, Gillian Welch\, Jack White & more) all captured giving sublime stage performances of music from the era\, on a truly glorious evening at New York Town Hall. \n\n\n\nConsidered one of the finest Coen Brothers films and regularly named amongst the top entries in ‘best films of the 21st century’ lists\, Inside Llewyn Davis is an undoubted masterpiece of melancholic comedy that follows ‘a complete unknown’ folk singer called Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac)\, struggling to keep his personal life in order (chiefly his relationship with married folk singer Jean – Carrie Mulligan\, and his friend’s ginger cat) whilst also attempting to become a success on the early 60s folk scene. Exceptionally witty\, beautifully photographed\, with an exceptional supporting cast this is the Coen Brothers at the absolute peak of their powers. \n\n\n\nThe accompanying concert film is an equally remarkable document of some of the most uplifting and affectingly brilliant folk music performances ever recorded and is a truly joyous concert film produced by the genius behind so many Coen Bros film soundtracks\, the fifteen time Grammy Award winner T. Bone Burnett.  \n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 6.40pm*\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 7.10pm*\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 105 mins + 101 mins\n\n\n\nCERT: 15 (Under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult)\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS & MORE INFO\n\n\n\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.

SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: INLAND EMPIRE
DESCRIPTION: DAVID LYNCH’S – 4K REMASTER \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets & More Info\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith the sad passing of a true icon of cinema in David Lynch\, we screen the final feature film of his illustrious career in the shape of this special 4K remaster presentation of the infamous Inland Empire. The final ‘ultimate’ puzzle of a career made out of cinematic puzzles\, this 2006 experimental psychological thriller represents the natural progression and final landing point of the much discussed Lynchian style. Inland Empire is the direct successor to the likes of Blue Velvet\, Wild At Heart\, Twin Peaks\, Lost Highway and perhaps most crucially Mulholland Drive.\n\n\n\nA crucial artefact of the early digital filmmaking era\, Lynch is as innovative as ever in this wild tale of a Hollywood actress (a mighty performance by Laura Dern) who begins to take on the personality traits of a character she is playing in a supposedly cursed film production. ​​Largely financed by Lynch himself\, started without a finished screenplay and developed (as was Lynch’s preference) on a scene by scene basis\, the film is famously shot by Lynch himself entirely on a handheld Sony camcorder. If Lynch was known for his pre-occupation with the relationship between cinema and dreams then Inland Empire is the closest we will ever come to having a live feed from inside David Lynch’s head on the screen. \n\n\n\nThe final and most undiluted statement by one of cinemas great heroes Inland Empire is a full circle moment and easily his most personal film since 1977’s Eraserhead and an extraordinary document of Lynch’s boundless imagination. Once again joining with regular collaborators like Dern (Blue Velvet / Wild At Heart) as well Justin Theroux (Mulholland Drive)\, Harry Dean Stanton (Wild At Heart) & Grace Zabriskie (Twin Peaks) David also brings in the likes of Jeremy Irons and Julia Ormond plus a collection of star cameos. Uncompromising and masterful\, Inland Empire is a deep\, seductive\, troubling and confrontational whirlwind of a film that will confound and beguile you throughout.  \n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 5.40pm*\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 6.10pm*\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 180 mins\n\n\n\nCERT: 12 (Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult)

SUMMARY:White Wall Cinema: RETURN TO OZ
DESCRIPTION:Tickets & More Info\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis wonderfully creepy kids classic still lives rent free in the minds of all who saw it in their youth. Forget Arianna Grande\, this is the ONLY truly WICKED adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s Oz novels.\n\n\n\nWhen the mother (Piper Laurie of Twin Peaks fame) of the young Dorothy Gale (played by the one and only Fairuza Balk from The Craft) fears her daughter is too disturbed by her memories/visions of the imaginary world of Oz\, she takes her for psychological experimentation. Dorothy manages to escape to Oz\, only find a vain witch and evil king have turned the yellow brick road to rubble\, and left the Emerald City a pile of ruins. Determined to save the day she\, with the help of some new friends like Billina\, Tik-Tok\, Jack Pumkinhead and The Gump\, heads off to rescue her old friends the scarecrow\, the tin man and the lion. \n\n\n\nGiven the awesome reputation of the original Wizard Of Oz film\, spin-off adaptations were inevitable\, but from The Wiz to Wicked no other Oz movie will ever quite achieve the cult status of this bizarre\, brilliant and often dazzling creation that all adds up to the most wonderfully unexpected sequel to the 1939 MGM classic. Ingenious production design and irresistible nightmarish special effects combine to create a fantastic voyage that is burned into the psyche of every 80s kid and still stands today as a joyously creative and stylish take on the world over the rainbow.  \n\n\n\n\nDOORS: 7.20pm*\n\n\n\nSTART TIME: 7.50pm*\n\n\n\nRUN TIME: 113 mins\n\n\n\nCERT: PG (Under 16’s must be accompanied by an adult).
