David Attenborough: Ocean

Friday 4th July

 

Released on his 99th birthday and presented in the context of his remarkable career, Sir David’s authority is matched only by nature’s grandeur in this visually stunning film.

A visual marvel like all his work, governed by his own matchless authority and striking a steady tonal balance between warning and hope, David Attenborough’s new film about the oceans is absorbing and compelling. He makes a passionate case against the ruin caused by industrial overfishing and the sinister mega-trawlers which roam everywhere, raking the seabed with their vast metal nets, brutally and wastefully hoovering up fish populations of which the majority is often simply thrown away, depleting developing countries and fishing communities of their share. Attenborough says that this is the new colonialism.
 

Penguin Lessons

 
Friday 1st August
 

This utterly charming blend of light comedy and even lighter drama offers a delightful variation on a familiar cinematic formula: the jaded schoolteacher rediscovering purpose in their craft from an unlikely source of inspiration.

In this case, British educator Tom Michell (expertly played by Steve Coogan) finds his teaching turbocharged by the accidental acquisition of a pet penguin.

Going by the name of Juan Salvador, this irresistibly charismatic little bird goes from surviving a gruesome oil spill to becoming the star attraction of Tom’s English class at an elite boys’ school in Argentina.

The mid-1970s setting of this tale provides some serious substance to proceedings, as Tom’s renewed enthusiasm for his work also opens his eyes to the dangerous influence of the military dictatorship ruling Argentina back then. Co-stars Jonathan Pryce.
