Event of the Week: May 30th - June 5th

This time around we’ve picked Film Fatale’s screening of Casablanca at The Sugar Club on Saturday June 4th.

They tell us the film “will be followed by a Moroccan-themed 1940s after-party with “As Time Goes By’ on the piano and DJs, the Andrews Sisters’ Brothers, playing music from the era. The audience is invited to help set the scene by dressing in their vintage finest, playing homage to 1940s Hollywood or going all out with a military or Moroccan theme.”

If you haven’t seen it before, then the back-of-the-DVD style synopsis goes a little something like this: “Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) must find safe transport out of WWII Morocco for herself and her resistance leader husband Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid). With the Nazis hot on their trail, her only hope is old love, Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart), an American expatriate and war profiteer who runs Rick’s Cafe.”

Doors are at 8pm, the screening starts at 9pm, and tickets are €15 from Tickets.ie. Drop a tweet to @culch_ie if you need a movie buddy, some of us will be there.
