John Muir Film Festival

Dunbar Film will be showing two films at the beautifully refurbished  West Barns Village Hall on Saturday 19 April as part of the John Muir Film Festival.

1.30pm.  The Edge of the World (U)

Dir: Michael Powell (UK 1937) 1h12m

Cast: John Laurie, Belle Chrystall, Eric Berry, Kitty Kirwan, Finlay Currie.

The film that made Michael Powell’s reputation is a love story set on the remote island of Foula. Filmed on rocks and dizzying cliffs, it’s a landscape film par excellence – a rhapsodic vision of lives lived at the farthest extremes of nature and human society.

Pay on the door £4 (£10 family)

3.15pm. Grizzly Man (15)

Dir: Werner Herzog (USA 2005) 1h44m

Filmmaker Werner Herzog, perenially fascinated by obsession, here takes on the strange case of Timothy Treadwell, who spent 13 summers in Alaska living among grizzly gears and chronicling their lives on video. The animals he loved, however, were to be his downfall. (Contains strong language)

Pay on the door £4 (£10 family)
