Event – The Balmoral Film Screening and Q&A Date – Monday 2 nd June, 2025 Time – Film starts at 7pm, followed by a Q&A about the film Tickets - £7.50 per person + booking fee. Doors and bar open from 6:30pm Over 75 years ago the MV Balmoral was built and launched in the historic and iconic Southampton docks. Now, in 2025, the ship will return to familiar ports and piers around the UK coastline where it once visited. However, this time it will arrive not by water but by screen... Join us for a special screening of Balmoral, the latest film by director Harry Knight and producer Maria Webb of Falling Films. As historic ships vanish from British waters, a group of passionate volunteers fights to save the Balmoral—a 1949 passenger vessel moored in Bristol’s iconic harbour—battling time, bureaucracy, and financial struggles to preserve a piece of maritime history before it’s lost forever. After the screening, we will be joined by special guests to discuss the film and its themes (Why is this story important and what future does our heritage have?) as well as an opportunity to have a Q&A with the filmmakers. Please use the seat booking function to select your seats, if seats are not booked, Eventbrite will automatically select seats for you, which we may be unable to change following the booking.

Nawr, yn 2025, bydd y llong yn dychwelyd i borthladdoedd a phierau cyfarwydd o amgylch arfordir y DU lle'r oedd unwaith yn ymweld â nhw. Fodd bynnag, y tro hwn bydd yn cyrraedd nid trwy ddŵr ond trwy sgrin... Ymunwch â ni ar gyfer dangosiadau arbennig o Balmoral, y ffilm ddiweddaraf gan y cyfarwyddwr Harry Knight a'r cynhyrchydd Maria Webb o Falling Films. Wrth i longau hanesyddol ddiflannu o ddyfroedd Prydain, mae grŵp o wirfoddolwyr angerddol yn ymladd i achub y Balmoral - llong deithwyr o 1949 sydd wedi'i hangori yn harbwr eiconig Bryste - yn brwydro yn erbyn amser, biwrocratiaeth a heriau ariannol i achub darn o hanes morwrol cyn iddo gael ei golli am byth. Ar ôl pob dangosiad, bydd gwesteion arbennig yn ymuno â ni i drafod y ffilm a'i themâu (Pam mae'r stori hon yn bwysig a pha ddyfodol sydd i’n treftadaeth?) yn ogystal â chyfle i fod yn rhan o sesiwn Holi ac Ateb gyda gwneuthurwyr y ffilm.

The film is a real-life political thriller which follows Carl Bernstein (Hoffman) and Bob Woodward (Redford), two journalists investigating the Watergate scandal for the Washington Post. The film, which renowned movie critic Roger Ebert described as “The most observant study of working journalists we’re ever likely to see in a feature film” would go on to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, as well as win 4 awards. It is a must see for any film fan. This is the first of five films being screened as part of our American New Wave season. The American New Wave was a film movement which began in 1967 and ran until 1980.

The era would see the emergence of famous directors such as George Lucas.

Byddai'r ffilm, a ddisgrifiodd y beirniad ffilm enwog Roger Ebert fel Yr astudiaeth fwyaf sylwgar o newyddiadurwyr yn gweithio rydyn ni erioed yn debygol o weld mewn ffilm nodwedd yn mynd ymlaen i gael ei henwebu ar gyfer y Ffilm Orau yn yr Oscars, yn ogystal ag ennill 4 gwobr. Mae’n ffilm hanfodol i’w gwylio i unrhyw ffan ffilmiau. Dyma'r cyntaf o bum ffilm sy'n cael eu dangos fel rhan o'n tymor Amreican New Wave. Roedd yr American New Wave yn fudiad ffilm a ddechreuodd ym 1967 ac a barhaodd tan 1980. Wedi'i ddylanwadu gan y cynnydd mewn ffilmiau sy'n cael eu harwain gan gyfarwyddwyr yn Ffrainc, byddai'r mudiad, y cyfeirir ato hefyd fel y New Hollywood, yn gweld cynnydd adrodd straeon arloesol a sylwebaeth gymdeithasol.

Wie Gehts, Brö? We’ve all seen American fraternities in movies and thought, they can’t really be like that…. Can they? Do these men really love partying, beer, and boobs that much? Jetting to London fresh from an academic foray at the University of Florida, Dr. Hans Zillman, Ph.D (candidate), unveils the secrets of brotherhood, fraternity, and why the Big Bang Theory is so goddamn funny in his seminal academic presentation, Wie gehts, bro? Moonkid Perpetually deemed “too young” to join his mother on her month-long orbits of Earth, Moonkid is left on Earth for 27 days at a time. Abandoned yet undeterred, the poetic and intrepid Moonkid embarks on a fraught journey to reach adulthood during his time alone so that he might be able to join Mother on her next lap. In his greatest storytelling endeavor to date, he shares what he learned about manliness, selflessness, purity, and power along the way — and how “adulthood” might be an illusion that smothers what’s important.

Art History Talk – Georgia O’Keeffe, ‘More than just Flowers’ Date: Tuesday 8th October 2024 Timings:2.00pm for the Lecture, followed by Tea & Cake in the Pavilion Gallery at 3pm (doors open from 1.30pm) Venue:Penarth Pier Pavilion Ticket/s: £15.50per person (+ booking fee) - Ticket price includes Tea & Cake Join us this October to hear acclaimed art history lecturer, Stella Grace Lyons’s fascinating talk on Georgia O’Keeffe. Despite Georgia O’Keeffe’s insistence that her paintings of flowers were just flowers, they have always been interpreted as containing explicit sexual symbolism. Georgia O’Keeffe was more than just flowers. She painted cityscapes, nature, animal skulls, and her beloved New Mexico. Throughout her life she struggled with being pigeon-holed – not only as a painter of suggestive paintings, but as a ‘female artist’ or as the ‘wife’ of the photographer and art dealer Alfred Stieglitz. This talk explores how she overcame these prejudices and went from being a Midwestern farm girl to becoming the first woman to have one-woman shows at major art museums. Come along and explore the varied work and fascinating life of this determined and driven ‘Mother of Modernism’, Georgia O’Keeffe. ‘Without sacrificing scholarship, Stella Grace Lyons has a most engaging way of hooking an audience into sharing her passionate interest in art history, drawing three dimensional human stories and experiences from the two-dimensional canvas' - Maev Kennedy, Guardian Arts Correspondent Following the talk, please stay for tea and delicious homemade cake, served in the Pavilion’s beautiful Gallery. Sgwrs Hanes Celf – Georgia O'Keeffe, 'Mwy na Blodau' Dyddiad: Dydd Mawrth 8 Hydref 2024 Amseru: 2.00pm ar gyfer y Ddarlith, wedyn Te a Theisen yn Oriel y Pafiliwn am 3pm (drysau’n agor am 1.30pm) Lleoliad: Pafiliwn Pier Penarth Tocyn(nau): £15.50 y pen (+ ffi archebu) - Mae pris y tocyn yn cynnwys te a theisen Ymunwch â ni fis Hydref i glywed sgwrs ddiddorol y ddarlithwraig hanes celf o fri, Stella Grace Lyons, ar Georgia O’Keefe. Er gwaethaf honiad Georgia O'Keeffe mai blodau yn unig oedd ei phaentiadau o flodau, maent bob amser wedi cael eu dehongli fel rhai sy'n cynnwys symbolaeth rywiol benodol. Roedd Georgia O'Keeffe yn fwy na blodau. Peintiodd ddinasluniau, byd natur, penglogau anifeiliaid, a'i New Mexico annwyl. Trwy gydol ei bywyd brwydrodd yn erbyn cael ei neilltuo i ddiffiniadau penodol – nid yn unig yn beintiwr paentiadau awgrymiadol, ond yn 'artist benywaidd' neu’n 'wraig' y ffotograffydd a'r gwerthwr celf, Alfred Stieglitz. Mae'r sgwrs hon yn archwilio sut y goresgynnodd y rhagfarnau hyn a sut aeth o fod yn ferch fferm canolbarth UDA i fod y fenyw gyntaf i gynnal sioeau un fenyw mewn amgueddfeydd celf mawr.
