As the nights draw in, expand your mind and your watchlist with Mark Cousins’ epic, groundbreaking history of international cinema shown in eight weekly instalments. It has been described as a ‘love letter’ to the movies and is extraordinary in its range, focussing on cinematic innovation and featuring
exclusive interviews with legendary filmmakers and a dizzying wealth of film clips. The whole film is 15 hours long, so we’ll be showing two chapters per week, culminating in the final chapter accompanied by a talk with Mark Cousins live from Edinburgh.
Week 4: The revolutionary 60s: Bergman, Fellini, the French New Wave and a new, freewheeling era dawns in US cinema.
We are also excited to announce that Mark Cousins will be Cromarty Cinema’s first guest curator, devising an exciting weekend event for us over 13th – 15th March, 2026.
It’s wildly ambitious, often extremely good, occasionally maddening, and always stimulating.
★★★★
To hear Mark Cousins talk about film is to be in love with Mark Cousins talking about film. A brilliant documentary.
