Welcome to this week's IFI newsletter!
Our Memory on Film season continues this week, with massively popular screenings of Memento (35mm, Thursday 23rd) and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (Sunday 26th) on the way. Don't forget, you can still get the remaining 5 films for €45 at the IFI Box Office too!
Also this week we feature the final event in our Trish McAdam season with Snakes and Ladders on Saturday and the same day we host a special screening of The Wedding Present: Something Left Behind followed by a Q&A with David Gedge and director Andrew Jezard.
This coming Sunday is a very busy day indeed, with family film Pirates of the Caribbean, Mystery Matinee, the aforementioned Eternal Sunshine, plus a screening of new film Sunset on 35mm followed by a Q&A with Oscar-winning director László Nemes. If that's not enough, we also have a showing of Charlie Chaplin's masterpiece The Great Dictator on Monday 27th, introduced by satirist Oliver Callan.
Our new releases on Friday are IFI Exclusive Memoir of War, Too Late to Die Young and XY Chelsea, and you can find everything else still to come in May in our handy guide.
