SUMMARY:CAMP AT THE CINEMA with Blackpool Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:\nBlackpool Film Festival heads to the ARC Cinema (formerly Backlot) for an evening of high drama and huge emotions at a special screening of Paul Verhoeven’s SHOWGIRLS (1995).\n\n\n\nThursday 11 December at 6.30pm\n\n\n\nCAMP AT THE CINEMA with Blackpool Film Festival\n\n\n\nShowgirls directed by Paul Verhoeven (Robocop, Starship Troopers), returns to cinemas for its 30th anniversary in dazzling 4K. Ridiculed on its release in 1995, Showgirls was slated for its over the top performances, wild plot, nudity and ridiculous script. However, this box office flop has since been reclaimed as a LGBTIA+ community to enjoy its rightful status as a campy cult classic and exploration of American excess.\n\n\n\nUsing the much loved sensibility of camp, Harry Clayton-Wright and Catherine Mugonyi created CAMP AT THE CINEMA, a live cinema event that highlights iconic over the top moments on the silver screen. Audiences will be treated toa funny, engaging and insightful cinema talk that explores the idea of camp and shares examples of its presence in the world of film melodrama.\n\n\n\nUsing comedy, lip sync, short entertaining clips, well researched insights into cinema history and costume, the duo will entertain and educate audiences with their quest of curating the campest moments ever captured on film.\n\n\n\nCAMP AT THE CINEMA is part of TOO MUCH – MELODRAMA ON FILM, a major UK-wide season of film presented by the British Film Institute, that celebrates the vivid visual language, heightened dramatics and emotional pathos at the heart of melodrama. United by their emotion driven plots, vivid visual language and self-conscious audience manipulation, these films are designed to make you break down in tears, cause a scene, fall in love, feel something.\n\n\n\nThis event is not organised by Visit Fylde Coast but please mention you saw it here.
