Local screening for cult classic

THE newly formed cinema club, Red Dirt Film Club has partnered with the Broken Hill Musicians Club to screen cult classic film Wake in Fright at the Silver City Cinema on April 9. The recently remastered version of the film will be shown, which has been scanned from the original camera negative, and colour corrected and stabilised one shot at a time.

The film, which was shot at locations throughout Broken Hill and the surrounding region, was first screened at the Cannes Film Festival in 1971, before the original negatives were lost for decade
