SUMMARY:Ballarat Film Society | ​Hammarskjöld: The Fight for Peace
DESCRIPTION:November 13\n@\n7:30 pm\n–\n9:00 pm \nCompelling Cold War Political Thriller\n \nIn 1961\, the charismatic Swedish diplomat\, economist and implacable idealist Dag Hammarskjöld was in his seventh year as Secretary-General of the United Nations. By some\, he was considered the ‘clearest thinker in the room\,’ but by others as the victim of a ‘saviour complex’ (Cineuropa). \nTorn between his personal life and dedication to global responsibilities\, he set out to bring peace to the newly decolonizing Congo\, taking on in the process powerful mining entrepreneurs and world powers intent on exploitation. Hammarskjöld’s mission was fraught with danger as he boarded a plane in a desperate attempt to negotiate a ceasefire. \nJohn. F. Kennedy called Hammarskjöld one of the greatest statesmen of our century and he has remained the benchmark against which later UN Secretaries-General have been judged. Whilst the film is set against a huge geo-political backdrop\, it also helps humanize a man acutely aware of his role as a politician. Palace. \nSweden\, 2023\, 114 min. \nDir: Per Fly.

SUMMARY:Ballarat Film Society | ​Little Richard: I am Everything
DESCRIPTION:December 11\n@\n7:30 pm\n–\n9:00 pm \nMusical Doco\n \n‘The south is the home of all things queer\,’ says scholar Zandria Robinson as we witness the exhilarating jam-packed story of Little Richard’s complex life and musical career\, ending only in 2020.  \nBorn in 1932 as Richard Wayne Penniman\, by 1955 Little Richard was declared a world rock ‘n’ roll star with his hit “Tutti Frutti.” \nRaised on gospel music\, experimenting with drag\, and drenched with musical talent\, he went on to win award after award and reach global stardom. \nInterestingly enough\, on an Australian tour in 1957\, when his plane from Melbourne to Sydney experienced difficulty\, he saw a bright red fireball\, coinciding with the launch of the Russian satellite Sputnik. He cancelled his last two concerts\, renounced rock’n’roll\, and declared he was returning to the US to repent and be baptized! \nAn enlightening film which will fill in the ‘gaps’ about his turbulent life and his undisputable influence. Amalgamated. \nUSA\, 2023\, 98 min. \nDir: Lisa Cortés and starring Little Richard. \nBallarat Film Society \n  \nMembership \n12 months – Feb-December: $60\nFeb-July: $35 – July-Dec: $30 \nTo join or renew your membership\, please e-mail or phone Angus McLachlan (5374 2474)\, or come with cash on the night. \nMembership can be paid by bank transfer or with cash. \nFor film enquiries\, phone Sue Nunn: 5341 2266 or visit the  Ballarat Film Society website \nAll films are subject to availability.
