This event has passed

Oppenheimer costume designer Ellen Mirojnick made sure that the iconic style of the “father of the atomic bomb” came through in Christopher Nolan’s epic. Working as one of the most sought-after costume designers for the past 45 years, Ellen has clothed actors in everything from Fatal Attraction, Showgirls, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, The Greatest Showman to Bridgerton. Get an insight into Mirojnick’s creative process, the difference between designing costumes for drama films and period pieces, and the importance of research and collaboration.

Rosetta

Being John Malkovich

Dir. Spike Jonze
113 min

There's real yearning in this bizarre, mind-bending comedy about voyeurism, sex, and the human desire to play God from writer Charlie Kaufman and director Spike Jonze. You can't get much further out of the box than this.

10 Things I Hate About You

97 min

Magnolia

Dir. Paul Thomas Anderson
188 min

This deeply personal 1999 California opus is ripe for rediscovery. Mapping the emotional traumas of half-a-dozen major characters as they crisscross the San Fernando Valley in search of either recognition or reconciliation, it's PTA's riskiest gamble.

But I'm a Cheerleader

Dir. Jamie Babbit
85 min

Megan (Natasha Lyonne) is the perfect All-American Girl, or so she thinks. That is until she’s shipped off to conversion therapy. This pitch black comedy is wrapped in a saccharine bow, featuring the icon herself, RuPaul, as a conversion counsellor.

Franz

Dir. Agnieszka Holland
127 min

Veteran Polish filmmaker Agnieszka Holland takes the bull by the horns to craft a Kafka biopic that's Kafkaesque and then some, artfully layering scenes from Kafka's life and works along with ironic present-day footage for a truly surreal counterpoint.
