Queens Birthday weekend at the Sydney Film Fest
June 4th 2009 03:42
If you like your horror local, then you can’t miss VAN DIEMANS LAND based on the true story of notorious convict Alexander Pearce who escaped from authorities with 7 other convicts into the Tasmanian Wilderness. When hunger takes over the consequences are dire. (Friday/Sunday)
Other highlights of the weekend include: LAST RIDE starring Hugo Weaving, THE FOX AND THE CHILD narrated by Kate Winslet and BREATHLESS an Asian thriller about a Korean loan shark.
Monday evening the acclaimed Australian film CEDAR BOYS screens at Greater Union. A city drama about a group of young Lebanese who spend their time traveling between their homes in the western suburbs to the eastern suburbs of Bondi and Rose Bay, if you miss out on tickets to this one keep an eye out for its general release later in the year.
Over the weekend there are 80 screenings across the festival. I bet you can find one for every member of your family.
The Sydney Film Festival is now in its 56th year.
Most screening sell out so pre booking is recommended
