THE SPONGEBOB MOVIE: SEARCH FOR SQUAREPANTS
Director: Derek Drymon
The SpongeBob Movie: Search For Squarepants is a swashbuckling yarn for all the family. This epic piratical animation takes audiences all the way from Bikini Bottom to Santa Monica Pier with its cast of beloved characters on a new rollercoaster ride. We join SpongeBob as he becomes a big boy, but his bravery is struggling to catch up with his size. Egged on by Mr Krabs' stories of adventure on the high seas, he sets out in search of ghostly pirate ship the Flying Dutchman and its tyrannical, duplicitous captain. Series veteran Derek Drymon directs this fourth SpongeBob feature with the series voice cast all reprising their roles in an animated treasure-chest for Red Sea landlubbers. This screening of SPONGEBOB is preceeded by an exclusive look at Paramount's brand-new seven-minute action-packed short film TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: CHROME ALONE 2 - LOST IN NEW JERSEY. This first-look combines stylised character design with photo-realistic backgrounds and takes our heroes in a half-shell out of the comfort zone in New York City as they try to solve a mystery and is directed by Kent Seki.
GIRL
Director: Shu Qi
Superstar Shu Qi, icon of Asian cinema and muse of Hou Hsiao-hsien, makes her directorial debut with this self-penned, deeply personal coming-of-age drama. In a cramped home ruled by abuse, young teenager Lin Xiaoli keeps her head down, caring for her little sister while her father’s drunken rages cascade into her mother’s cruelty. Everything shifts when she befriends Li Lili, a rebellious classmate who skips class, smokes and urges Xiaoli to challenge the family’s toxic status quo. As escape glimmers, Shu Qi films with poised restraint, observing at a remove and tuning the viewer to intimate, everyday textures with a quietly harrowing strength. Tender yet unsentimental, Girl finds fragile beauty amid hurt and announces a formidable new directorial voice.
