A screening of Guy Maddin's 1992 experimental film 'Careful' as part of the Mayhem Film Festival 2026 programme.
Guy Maddin's Careful is showing at Broadway Cinema on Friday 16 October, as part of the Mayhem Film Festival 2026. It's a 100-minute feature from 1992, and it carries an 18 certificate, so it's definitely one for the adult crowd rather than a casual afternoon at the pictures.
If you're not familiar with Maddin, Careful is a good place to start. It's an example of experimental cinema, and it carries the highly distinctive directorial style that's come to define his work. The film stars Paul Cox, Kyle McCulloch and Gosia Dubrowolska, and it runs for a full 100 minutes, so you've got a proper feature to sink your teeth into rather than a short. It's an early piece of his filmography, made back in 1992, so it sits well back from his more recent stuff.

The screening is part of the Mayhem Film Festival 2026 programme at Broadway, which means it's one of several titles running as part of the festival rather than a standalone booking. If you're already following the Mayhem line-up, this is one of the slots to keep an eye on. The cinema is at 14-18 Broad Street, Nottingham NG1 3AL, and the session starts at 14:00 on Friday 16 October.
