Film Club #16: THE LIVING END! (Wednesday 8pm)

How so?

A trans filmmaker claims the director stole her work to make the film his own.

The same director also made the film adaptation of How to Survive a Plague (which is incredible) so he clearly has the chops but obviously given the nature of its subject, theft of material is a bit icky and some queer folk boycotted it.

Hmm did not know that. It was screened at the queer film festival here.

Anyway, one hour left for nominations everyone!

Does that mean you’re nominating it?

Omg the group chat for Living End would be sensational

Ran out of time to look up all the films to inform my vote, but looks like there is an obvious winner anyway.

Hope my connection holds out as I can’t download it, if I miss another rumble I’ll be just about ready to chuck my router into a canal.

I love film club so much, I’m excited without even knowing about the film we’re watching.
