International filmmaker comes home to Oz

Internationally acclaimed Australian filmmaker Gillian Armstrong is on her way home.

Armstrong will be touring Dendy cinemas in March to talk about her new film Death Defying Acts to fans, cinephiles, and people who win tickets on the radio.

The film’s cast fairly sparkles, and not just with Oscar gold: Guy Pearce and Catherine Zeta Jones head the line-up, supported by Timothy Spall of several Harry Potters and Atonement’s Saoirse Ronan.

With all those big names currently hovering around her own, Armstrong’s speaking tour is pretty much guaranteed to pull quite the crowd, so get in early if you want to go. There will be refreshments, then the film screening, then a Q&A session with the woman behind the film.

Armstrong’s past features include My Brilliant Career, Starstruck, The Last Days of Chez Nous, Little Women, Oscar and Lucinda, Charlotte Grey and Unfolding Florence: The Many Lives of Florence Broadhurst.
