The American heart-throb of the 1970’s, Robert Redford starred in some of Hollywood’s most revered films and his activism and support of the arts has persevered to this day.

His iconic role in ‘Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid’ led him to pick up the famous Sundance Kid moniker, and eventually lead to the establishment and rise of the Sundance Film Festival in 1978, held in Redford’s own Sundance Resort in Utah.

Alongside his environmental activism, support of Native American and Indigenous rights, and open support towards the LGBTQ+ community, Robert Redford is remembered as a pioneer for Hollywood’s second golden age, a passionate worker and a loved public figure.

“The legendary actor and Sundance founder was famously late for everything – but always ahead of his time” – The Hollywood Reporter

With its aching musical soundtrack and exquisitely abstract cinematography by Christopher Doyle and Mark Lee Ping-bin, this film has secured a place in the cinematic canon and is a milestone in Wong’s redoubtable career.

In 1962 Hong Kong, two neighbours form a strong bond after both suspect extramarital activities of their spouses.

Pop on your fishnets, red lipstick and party hats and let madness take control at our last screening of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW for 2024 at Dendy Cinemas Coorparoo on Friday, 13 December at 9pm.

Generally credited as being the best-known cinematic “Midnight Movie”, for decades now The Rocky Horror Picture Show has been a “Cult Classic” in every sense of the word.

Starring the inimitable Tim Curry and Susan Sarandon, the bizarre, over-the-top, and very unapologetic sci-fi/horror musical/gender-bending rock opera is a true, undeniable legend of cinema!

But it’s not just the film itself… far from it, even!

THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW is all about the fans… and more specifically, the audience participation!

Rocky Horror is the first and only true audience partici- (SAY IT!)-pation movie. People yell back lines at the screen during the extended pauses between dialogue, dress up in costume and act out the film, and throw props various times during the film. Think of it as one part dinner theatre, one part drag show, one part roast, and of course, all parts insanity!

This is an experience to remember with free participation kits for all guests plus our host with the most – Brisbane drag royalty – MAXI-BON.

So, dress for a trip to Transylvania with our sing-along, dance-a-long screening of this timeless cultural phenomenon.

It’s also a remarkably humane and melancholy drama, made in Japan at a time when the country was reeling from nuclear attack and H-bomb testing in the Pacific.

Its rampaging radioactive beast, the poignant embodiment of an entire population’s fears, became a beloved international icon of destruction.

Dendy is proud to present the original 1954 Japanese version on the big screen, restored in glorious 4K. See it first on National Godzilla Day Nov 3, before it’s unleashed for limited sessions from Nov 7.

Japan is thrown into a panic after several ships are sunk near Odo Island. An expedition to the island led by Dr. Yemani soon discover something far more devastating than imagined in the form of a 50 meter tall monster whom the natives call Gojira. Now the monster begins a rampage that threatens to destroy not only Japan, but the rest of the world as well.

In Japanese language with English subtitles.
