Cinema - films at The Shed
 The
Shed's Autumn Programme 2007 |
Cinema arrived at The Shed in 1993 with the showing of Dave Sample's 16mm docu-short 'Scarborough'. Rosa Liksom, the wonderfully mad Finnish artist, showed a selection of her video shorts in 1996 and Jan Kopinski's Ghost Music project included film of Polish cemeteries. That particular night we also beamed live images, captured using a tiny security camera, of a dark Brawby street onto a huge monitor on stage (we still have that eerie footage).
The Shed's cinema uses an old slide projector screen found in a skip at Malton tip for which the princely sum of £3 (three pounds) was paid. Films at The Shed have included: Harold and Maude, The Navigator (with improvised soundtrack by Billy Jenkins and the Blues Collective), No More Mr Nice Guy, Cinema Paradiso, Black Rider, Trains and Roses, It's A Jungle Out There, and Surprise.
We serve FREE popcorn!
Thanks are due to Karin Doose
who not only advises us on which films to present but brings
the projectors and shows them for us.
Karin runs Ryedale Film Society and shows films in Pickering
on Sunday nights. Many of the films she chooses for The Shed
are in German. Karin is German, so there's always one person
in the audience who understands what's going on!
