Obviously, there is not a lot I can be doing with this site, in these testing times. I am sure missing going to the movies but there is some consolation in what you can find online, and watch in the company of specific individuals. Just a reminder about the Mark Cousin's Women Making Film, which begins on the Rialto Channel (Sky39) tonight (Wednesday April 1), at 8.30pm. Dan Slevin also interviewed Mark on At The Movies ( RNZ National) on the same night. . Interview available here https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/atthemovies/audio/2018741080/mark-cousins-and-women-make-film Here is an interesting perspective from Mark, in The Guardian from this week: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2020/mar/30/lockdown-watch-mark-cousins-only-seeing-films-from-1940?CMP=share_btn_link |
