UK FILM CRITIC MARK KERMODE AT EXETER PICTUREHOUSE

Decrease Font Size Increase Font Size Text Size Print This Page

Top UK film critic Mark Kermode is appearing live at Exeter Picturehouse on October 31 as part of The Mark Kermode Book Tour: The Good, the Bad and the Multiplex. It is a major coup for the Bartholomew Street West independent cinema and it is expected the event will sell out as Mark highlights what he thinks is wrong with modern cinemas.

Outspoken, opinionated and hilariously funny, Mark returns to the stage with The Good, the Bad and the Multiplex to take his audience into the belly of the beast and ask: what is wrong with the movie industry – and what can be done to make it right? He says if blockbusters can make a staggering amount of money no matter how bad they are, would it really be that hard to make a good one for a change? Why pay to watch films in cinemas that don’t have a projectionist but do have a fast food stand?

Doors open at 7pm, tickets (priced at £15 adults, £13 concessions and £12 members) are on sale now by calling 0871 902 5730 or online at www.picturehouses.co.uk or in person at the Exeter Picturehouse.
