Friday at the Flicks is a series that screens classic, significant and challenging films. A five-minute pre-screening talk sets the context and then post-show drinks and nibbles allow for a post-show discussion with a community of film enthusiasts.

 

Heavenly Creatures

A technicolour whirlwind of romance and obsession, Heavenly Creatures follows the manic relationship of two teenage girls and the murder that shocked New Zealand in the 1950s.

Kate Winslet’s debut role and the film that solidified Peter Jackson as a tour-de-force of film making, Heavenly Creatures tells the darkly compelling true tale of an obsessive relationship between two teenage girls in 1950s Christchurch. Based on true events, the lavishly-filmed hypnotic escapade recounts the friendship of outsider Pauline (Melanie Lynskey) with the beautiful Juliet (Kate Winslet). Sharing a passion for literature and art, the two quickly develop an uncomfortably intense relationship, bonded together by a shared fantasy land that they will go to any lengths, no matter how repellent, to conserve.

New Zealand, 1994.

Rated M for medium level violence and adult themes
