Hi,

After the elections tomorrow night, we will be showing 'Jurassic Park':

"On remote Isla Nuba entrepreneur John Hammond (Richard Attenborough)
has built the ultimate theme-park, populated by genetically engineered
dinosaurs painstakingly reconstructed from DNA extracted from
prehistoric amber... and, of course, frogs! Adapted from Michael
Crichton's novel, Steven Spielberg's classic blockbuster became a
cultural and commercial phenomenon thanks in part to the enduring
appeal of all things prehistoric. But the film's extraordinarily
realistic digital dinosaurs also showcased the spectacular
computer-generated effects which have since become ubiquitous in
Hollywood filmmaking.

From the benign majesty of the towering brachiosaurus to the reptilian
menace of the velociraptors, the inhabitants of Jurassic Park were a
radical departure from their stop-motion predecessors, and remain
compellingly real in their animalistic pursuit of survival at all
costs. Most memorable of all is the T-rex, displaying a spine-chilling
combination of physical ferocity and child-like bewilderment in the
face of its reincarnation in the modern world." (Amazon)

6.30pm! Don't forget!
