The IADT Factor
Apr 19, 10.30am
Would you like to learn more about college assessments and see the kind of projects film students do? Or have
a chance to comment on their work?
During the second year of their course, Film & Television Production students of the National Film School (NFS) at IADT carry out a research project into
an aspect of the industry. As part of this they make a presentation to a panel on their chosen topic, e.g.
production, cinematography. On April 19th, the 2nd year students will make their presentations in IFI to their tutors and a schools’ audience. This is a great chance to learn more about their projects and to give your opinion on third level work.

Students can attend on their own or as part of a group.
FREE event but booking is essential through IFI on 01 679 5744.

One City One Book 2010

The Picture of Dorian Gray
Ireland’s Young Filmmaker Award: Dublin & Leinster HeatsApr 13, 10.30am
Dublin City Libraries annual April event, One City One Book, has nominated Oscar Wilde’s 1891 classic novel
The Picture of Dorian Gray for 2010. In conjunction with this hugely popular event, IFI will screen a number of films, including this 1945 adaptation by
Albert Lewin. George Sanders (All About Eve) is world-weary Lord Henry Wootton who introduces Dorian to hedonistic
living, and Angela Lansbury plays his put-upon fiancée, Sybil. This fine adaptation is in classic black and white with some dashes of colour. Dorian’s dark secret is beautifully manifested by the film’s lighting and the faithful screenplay loses none of the novel’s
wit or lesson on vanity and ego.

USA • 1945 • Drama • 110 mins • Director: Albert Lewin
