Film Nights

Every Sunday night at 7.30pm in the Guild of Students Guild Council Chambers we host our popular LGBTQ Film Night. Each week we show a different LGBTQ-related film projected onto a big screen. The film group is open to everyone who wants to come along, with a regular turn out of around 40 students. Like almost all of our events admission is free. It’s a great event for newcomers to meet some people in a relaxed and friendly environment and it’s also pretty damn good for anyone who loves film. We show a varied selection of movies that you won’t necessarily of heard of, from mainstream Hollywood to foreign arthouse.

This week’s film: “Monster”

This week we’re showing the crime thriller Monster.

A dark tale based on the true story of Aileen Wuornos, one of America’s first female serial killers. Wuornos had a difficult and cruel childhood plagued by abuse and drug use in Michigan. She moved to Florida where she began earning a living as a highway prostitute. The tale focuses on the nine month period between 1989 and 1990, during which, Wuornos had a lesbian relationship with a woman named Selby.

I just noticed that you have ‘La Mala Educación’ on the list for possible future films… PLEASE show it! It’s one of my all time favourite films ever! If you need a copy of the DVD then I have it.

(I also have ‘Y tu mamá también’, and a lot of other Spanish films that would be suited to the LGBTQ’s film night)
