Nov 5: Movie – WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING
Dominic Corry, New Zealand Herald 3.5/5 Stars, “The haphazard storytelling eventually coalesces into a more coherent whole, and as dismissive as I felt earlier in the movie, the climax got me in the gut. And the tear ducts.”
From the best-selling novel comes a captivating mystery. A woman who raised herself in the marshes of the deep South becomes a suspect in the murder of a man she was once involved with.

Millie Lies Low is a sharp character driven comedy-drama that follows Millie as she anxiously navigates her way through a period of crisis in her life. She is both our protagonist and her own antagonist. Millie Lies Low is a female-centric film with themes of identity, options paralysis, self-representation and finding one’s place in the world.
Anxiety-ridden Millie is on her way from Wellington to New York for an internship at a prestigious architecture firm when a moment of panic causes her to miss her flight. She doesn’t have the money for another ticket, and a deep sense of shame prevents her from fessing up to her friends and family. So instead she lies low in her hometown in order to scrounge for another ticket, while using her wits and Instagram to convince her friends, boyfriend, mum, and the world at large, that she’s successfully living the dream in NYC. With her options running out she resorts to increasingly desperate schemes as her hastily constructed facade begins to crumble.

MCCURRY: THE PURSUIT OF COLOR is the first intimate feature length portrait of the contemporary photojournalist Steve McCurry. The one thing more poignant than McCurry’s pictures is his tumultuous 40-year career, which he’s spent travelling the globe essentially alone, capturing candid snapshots depicting the complexity of human life. Exclusive interviews with family, friends, colleagues, and with the photographer himself, bring to life the stories behind some of the most iconic photographs of the 20th century. With unique access to the photographer’s creative process and unpublished images, we discover how McCurry’s vulnerabilities set him on the path to greatness and we witness first-hand his commitment to record what defines and unites humankind – a race against time in an increasingly fractured and culturally homogenous world.
