STILL WALKING (Dir.Hirokazu Koreeda)
It’s a summit of coiled emotion, a rare occasion on which parents, children and grandchildren can awkwardly air grievances while happily munching on sushi, eel and tempura. Despite the fact that every shot is loaded with anxieties about death (of family members, of tradition…), the tone remains warm and ironic. The way Koreeda films – mostly discreet shots of the family’s cramped suburban house – makes most directors look blind to the possibilities of locating ideas in mundane imagery, such as a drawer left slightly open, a butterfly entering the house, or cherry blossom blooming in the garden.

About Me
New for 2010, the Ritzy Picturehouse in Brixton has let us take over the cinema. The Ritzy Jukebox gives the audience a chance to select the film they want to see at the cinema on the night. From independent films from local film-makers to art house and mainstream classics, we believe the audience should have the chance to decide what makes it on screen at the Ritzy. This summer, audiences are treated to Sly Stallone’s reunion of our favourite 80’s actors in THE EXPENDABLES. Coupled with the A-TEAM reboot, you should get ready for some truly explosive, blockbuster cinema.
To celebrate the release of these films, we’ve shortlisted 3 our favourite action-packed 80’s movies for RITZY JUKEBOX COPS!
BEVERLY HILLS COP (Martin Brest, 1984)
DIE HARD (John McTiernan, 1988)
LETHAL WEAPON (Richard Donner, 1987)
Only one of these films can be screened however and it's up to you to vote for the title you want to watch on 24th August at the Ritzy.
