Over the last 10 days, we have loved catching up with friends and strangers through our ongoing Utopia Movie Night and we are delighted to announce Part 2 which will start on Friday 3rd April. Some things will stay the same ie the show will still start at 8pm GMT each night, we will continue to connect on Zoom afterwards and we will try and maintain the diversity we are so passionate about. However we thought it would be nice to mix it up a little. Here are the key changes:
- We will be focusing on feel good movies (with a few exceptions). After over 2 weeks in isolation, we figure that people will welcome a little bit of joy every evening
- Each night’s movie will be announced the morning of the film rather than in advance (our little homage to secret cinema)
- We will be introducing polls on twitter (follow us here) to let you choose the films you most want to see which will be focused on a number of themes that might also fall outside the feel good theme (e.g. horror and Korean movies)
- Some nights the film will be chosen by collaborators (e.g. The Mandem) well we will also be getting surprise intros from some of the stars — I am delighted to say that Gemma Arterton will be joining us on Satursday 11th April at 8pm for a live Q&A before we will sit down to watch Their Finests
