On Friday June 21st Film Fatale will bring Hollywood glamour back to one of the oldest cinemas in Cork with a Breakfast at Tiffany’s screening and themed event in The Pavilion, Cork.
For the past two years, Film Fatale has been transporting packed houses to the golden age of cinema through film, fashion, music and good old-fashioned fun in the sumptuous surroundings of The Sugar Club, Dublin, originally The Irish Film Theatre which closed its doors in 1985 to re-open as the Sugar Club 14 years later.
Film Fatale has given cinema lovers the opportunity to enjoy their favourite classic films in a vintage cinema setting. Film Fatale is one of Dublin’s most unique nights and has been host to hundreds of vintage-dressed ladies and besuited gentlemen enjoying the best classic films and vintage parties that mirror the films, while drinking classic cocktails that would have been enjoyed by the films stars.
On Friday June 21st Film Fatale will brings its nostalgic mix of vintage film, fashion and music to Cork’s The Pavilion. The Pavilion opened for business 1921 with D. W. Griffith's, "The Greatest Question" and was the first cinema in Cork to be equipped with the technology for the new 'talking' films and showed its first 'talkie' in August 1929
Sadly this beloved Cork cinema with its gorgeous 1920s barrel vaulted ceiling and original plaster mouldings closed in August 1989 and similarly to The Sugar Club reopened in the early 90’s as a nightclub. In 2008 new owners gave the cinema a much needed makeover and re-opened it as a live music venue upstairs and late night bar/café downstairs. The Pavilion hosts an array of events from live to club to comedy and is the perfect venue for Film Fatale.
Film Fatale will treat Cork movie lovers to a screening of Blake Edward’s classic romantic comedy Breakfast at Tiffany’s followed by a party featuring chanteuse Derby Browne and Film Fatale’s resident DJs, The Andrews Sisters’ Brothers.
This night of cinema nostalgia and old–style Hollywood glamour will transport the audience back to the era of cinema’s most iconic party girl, Holly Golightly, for a night of film, vintage music, cocktails, dancing and good old-fashioned fun that will do an old cinema proud.
