A cinema course of five films and five lecturer-led discussion sessions, starting with a screening and introduction to 'Wild Horse Nine'.
Talk Cinema is back at QUAD on Friday 6 November, returning after a popular previous run. The premise is simple: you watch a film and then you talk about it. There's no prerequisite knowledge neededβthe only entry requirements are a love of cinema and a desire to discuss it.
The course is built around a series of double bills. Each one starts with a screening and an introduction, followed a week later by a lecturer-led discussion session. That pattern repeats across five films and five talk sessions, with a Christmas and New Year break in between. It's less of a one-off and more of a slow-burn, with the conversation happening a week after the credits roll.
The first film is Wild Horse Nine, which screens with an introduction on 6 November, with the corresponding talk session on 13 November. From there, the screenings continue on 20 November, 27 November, 4 December, and 11 December, with the talk sessions following on 15 January and 29 January. The whole thing runs from 6 November 2026 through to 29 January 2027, so it'll take you well into the new year.
