June 2019 Cinema Podcast

Mark Cosgrove, Watershed Cinema Curator, and Tara Judah, Watershed Cinema Producer look ahead to June 2019 at Watershed Cinema with their own personal highlights from the month.

Mark looks forward to Chilean director Sebastián Lelio's Gloria Bell – an English language remake of Lelio's own acclaimed 2013 film Gloria, with Julianne Moore as a divorced mother having a coming-of-age experience later in life. Both Tara and Mark highlight In Fabric – a visually rich, sensuous, surreal and funny story – and look forward to a season of brunches celebrating London's Scala cinema where In Fabric Peter Strickland’s directorial voice was moulded.

Mark recommends new documentary about the life of super talented Argentinian footballer Diego Maradona and shares his thoughts on the director Asif Kapadia's compelling storytelling, whilst gently urging you, even if you are not a sports fan, to go and see this film.

And to finish Tara shares her enthusiasm for the cinematic treat that is the beautiful and moving Dirty God – a modern tale of a young woman piecing her life back together after an acid attack.
