The Review - AT THE MOVIES with DAN CARRIER
Published: 30 December 2008
 
Pick of the Indies

IT promises to be one of the film highlights of the new year, and you can grab a preview screening of the new Daniel Craig film, Defiance, at the Swiss Cottage Odeon the night before it goes on general release.
Directed by Edward Zwick, the film tells the story of three brothers who flee Vilnius in Lithuania and hide out in the forests to fight the Germans. It is based on a true story, brilliantly told by Rich Cohen in a book called The Avengers, about how Lithuanian Jews escaped the ghetto and fought a guerilla war. The screening is in aid of the Anna Freud Centre in Hampstead, which specialises in the mental wellbeing of children.
Defiance is screened on January 8 at 8.15pm, Odeon Swiss Cottage.

• Dates have been announced for 2009’s Birds Eye View festival. The Islington-based organisers provide a platform for female directors and producers. It is offering more than 65 films and events between March 5 and 13. It includes the Femmes Fatales series at the BFI, headlined by a Greta Garbo season.
