Screen Players Film Club: Marianne & Leonard Words of Love + Nick Broomfield Q&A

Info

All tickets include a complementary drink at the bar post screening

Join us for the inaugural Screen Players Film Club, with a screening of “Marianne and Leonard: Words of Love” followed by an in-depth interview with the legendary Nick Broomfield, the man Louis Theroux describes as “the star of documentary making.”

“Marianne and Leonard: Words of Love” is a sunlit romance, exploring the achingly painful love between the singer Leonard Cohen and his soulmate and muse Marianne Ihlen.  It’s a film suffused with the bright light of the Greek island of Hydra, and the beautiful songs that Marianne inspired:  “So long, Marianne”, “Hey, That’s No Way to Say Goodbye” and “Bird on the Wire”.

Post-screening, Nick will discuss how his deeply personal and dreamily romantic documentary came about in a live podcast interview with Charlotte Bogard Macleod.

Later, we will be joined on stage by a very special guest - the singer, songwriter, composer and Bastille frontman - Dan Smith.  

His latest song, Leonard and Marianne, was inspired by Nick’s film.

SCREEN PLAYERS is a new podcast series with screenwriters, directors, actors and producers opening up the creative process of some of the most iconic and best-loved films of all time.

SCREEN PLAYERS  is presented by The Script Factory, in association with The Cinema In The Power Station and Soho Square Studios
