The Southside Film Festival - From the South of France to the Douthside of Glasgow; we have news of the first ever film festival on Glasgow's Southside with director Karen O'Hare. Running from 13 - 15 May, it will be a chance for locals to celebrate and share all that is great about film, filmmaking and the Southside.

'Taxi Driver' - Restored & Back in Cinemas. In celebration of its 35th anniversary, TAXI DRIVER has been digitally restored and will be back in cinemas from 13 May. We discuss this classic film - a dark rumination centring on one man, driven to violence by loneliness and desperation. Starring Robert De Niro and Jodie Foster, the title was nominated for 4 Academy Awards (including 'Best Picture') in 1977 and the winner of Cannes International Film Festival's Golden Palm Award 1976.
