CINECITY
THE BRIGHTON FILM FESTIVAL
17 NOVEMBER - 4 DECEMBER 2005

FESTIVAL INTRODUCTION
CINECITY returns to the cityís cinema screens with a packed programme highlighting the best in international cinema. CINECITY features a global mix of previews and premieres of new releases, treasures from the archive and classic reissues, the latest adventures with the digital moving image, film-maker and education events and much more.

In the NEW FEATURES strand we present a host of titles all screening in Brighton for the first time. This is your chance to see these films before they go on national release and to catch others in special one-off UK screenings. We open with Michael Winterbottomís hotly anticipated A COCK AND BULL STORY featuring a great cast headed by Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon. Other standout features screening months before release include THE PROPOSITION (directed by John Hillcoat and scripted by Nick Cave) and George Clooneyís 50s political thriller GOOD NIGHT, AND GOOD LUCK.

CINECITY welcomes SEE The Brighton Documentary Film Festival with a full opening weekend programme, showcasing the diversity of the genre. We complement their range of screenings and events with previews of big screen docs including Werner Herzogís latest GRIZZLY MAN and THE SMARTEST GUYS IN THE ROOM, charting the Enron scandal.

At the core of the programme we continue to explore celluloid cities around the world. We present a special programme focusing on the Cuban capital, Havana with a selection of classics, rarely screened gems and UK premieres.

There has been an exciting expansion in recent years in the creation of moving images for galleries and museums. We explore the artistsí moving image through a symposium at the University of Brighton and a week of free screenings at the Brighton Fringe Basement.

CINECITY screens right across Brighton & Hove in more than a dozen venues. We do hope you enjoy the selection of films on offer; CINECITY needs you, the audience, to help make this year a success and ensure the festival returns in 2006. There are many free screenings and special ticket offers to help you see more great films for less.
