Hi all,
It’s October already - the bewitching month!

A little different, this Sunday morning we’ll go to the IFI to see Steve (another Cillian Murphy and Tim Mielants collaboration after last year’s Small Things Like These) - the 11:10am showing in Cinema 3. This has been incredibly well received by reviewers and recommended by friends.

Steve | Official Trailer | Netflix
11:10am, Cinema 3 (93 mins)
“Steve (Cillian Murphy) is a headteacher in an English last-chance reform school for youths who have been forsaken by society. As he fights to protect the school’s integrity and impending closure, Steve grapples with his own mental and physical health and with difficult events of his past. Shy (Jay Lycurgo), a troubled teen who has alienated the people he loves, tries to reconcile his inner fragility with his impulse for self-destruction and violence. Meanwhile the staff, under Steve’s inspiring guidance, work to curb the excessive behaviours of the boys in their care with ingenuity and compassion.
Based on Max Porter’s bestselling novel Shy and reuniting Cillian Murphy and Tim Mielants (Small Things Like These), the film delivers a high-intensity, visceral ride laced with moments of deep humanity.”

We can meet beforehand for a quick coffee and breakfast at 10am in Peaches on Dame Street, which is only a few doors down. The movie screening is unallocated so we’ll aim to get to the IFI by 11am to get the best seats.
