There’s a film club in the Denzille Cinema (near the Ginger Man pub & Merrion Sq) in Dublin on Thursday’s at 7pm.
It focuses on films from the 1930’s & 1940’s with one or more strong female leads.
It tends to have a particular interest in pre-code films (1930-1934) before the censorship rules were enforced & films could deal with subjects like abortion, drug use & three-way relationships.
It’s run by Megan McGurk who gives a brief background to each film beforehand.
I have absolutely no involment in running it but I’ve been going regularly & figure that the more people who know about it, the more likely it is to continue.
It’s not a lecture, Megan picks these films because they are good (often funny) movies.
It’s a celebration of a golden age for women in Hollywood & well worth the ticket price of €10 (snacks & soft drinks included!)
