Hue And Cry's screening on Wednesday November 1st will be followed by a discussion group at the cinema's bar hosted by Dr. Grazia Ingravalle.
A gang of street boys foil a master crook who sends commands for robberies by cunningly altering a comic strip's wording each week, unknown to writer and printer. The first of the Ealing comedies.
Dr. Grazia Ingravalle is Lecturer in British and Minority Cinemas at Queen Mary University of London. She writes about film archives, early cinema, digitisation, and decolonisation in academic journals (such as The Moving Image, Screen, Viewfinder and the JCMS) and her book Archival Film Curatorship: Early and Silent Cinema from Analog to Digital will be out at the end of 2023. Grazia has also worked as curator, focusing on experimental, colonial, and repertoire film programmes.
