Guest stevemcmahon Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Jo & Gill recently started a Facebook group called 'Northern Soul the film: Cinema Group' which has all of the following information but thought to share it in here too: The up-to-date official list of Independent cinema's screening Elaine's film can be found here: https://bit.ly/NorthernSoulCinemas If you don't see your local cinema listed, try these two steps; 1. Go to the Our Screen website. Select the film & then check to see if they have a cinema near you listed. If not, use their Contact Us page to request your preferred cinema. They do reply within approx 24hrs. 2. Contact your local Independent cinema directly by email or phone & insist there is a large enough demand for them to put on a screening. With any luck it will then be available on OurScreen.com & you can schedule & promote a screening through them. Currently there are 52 cinemas booked to show the film. If every person who ran a Northern night &/or allnighter were to suggest this idea to their club's Facebook group, you could almost have your own private viewing! OurScreen is a great idea but seems to have only just got off the ground. If enough people badger them about this great film they will have to take notice & lobby the cinemas hard on your behalf. Hope this helps & best of luck! Steve. Edited October 3, 2014 by stevemcmahon Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Quinvy Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I have been trying to organise a screening at the Plaza Cinema in Skipton in North Yorkshire. It's a small old school type cinema that would suit the film perfectly. Problem is I can't get in touch with the owner, who won't answer my emails. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

He owns six cinemas and is involved in other business. The manager gave me the email address. Just been round there again and spoken to a nice young woman who was far more helpful than the manager, but apparently the owner is a very hard man to track down.

Well done on your efforts on behalf of the film and scene Steve and all!x Cinema.....luv it. My ex wife's Uncle Albert was 'Eric the projectionist' at our old Victoria Cinema in the market square through the 60's/70's.....now the Marks & Sparks! As 16 1/2 year olds and into our 20's we took advantage of his 'hospitality' and my affair with such a night out began! I had always enjoyed collecting on Poppy Day as a Cadet too in the mid 70's....so many affections with the Cinema. Lump that in with my 'interest' in Northern Soul....i;d have been flabbergasted Sir if Cambridge's Cinema Management had taken any other tac!

The 'streets' became my education....served me and my locality well!x If someone has info on the Edinburgh showing then please let me know.....a new found friend has invited me to a Diwali Dance night........i'd like to repay the compliment! He is a Muslim 'leader' up in Scotland arriving in 1972. He came to England...London...in '73 to search out potential opportunity. He was attacked...in his own words...by 'Skinheads wearing Fred Perry's!'.....! He has never returned to England and put all his efforts and commitment into Scotland....and feverishly into the YES campaign as a close ally to Alex Salmond. Indeed the Muslim Community were well represented at St Georges Square sporting Scottish flags.....to my surprise! I feel the need to assist him with his bad experience. Understanding each others Cultures....is key. I haven't seen the film or a trailer for it.

Souledtrafford Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 As mentioned on another post, I have got it showing in Dumfries on Saturday December 6th. There is an all-dayer on the same day, but the film will be shown twice prior to the start of this at a local cinema. The cinema showed Soul Boy when it came out, so I approached them regarding NS the Film and by pure luck they said they could get it, but not until December, which fitted in perfectly. There are no tickets available as yet, but full details will be put up on S/S when I have them. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ian Dewhirst Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) Yes and it is very good. I've sent some of my random media mates to see a couple of preview screenings and, without exception, they all said how much the film affected them. Terry Farley - Harmless's Deep/Acid/Classic House guru had some misconceptions about the film and was probably cynically inclined before he saw the film earlier tonight. His text message @ 9.29pm tonight:- "Wicked film! The Wigan scenes with dancers blocking up on speed actually made my heart race and I felt like gagging". Terry knows the symptoms to a tee, so high praise indeed. However, I think everyone involved with the film was incredibly touched by Mi-Soul Radio's incredible review from Ross Allen. Here it is:- "Right I can do this now… Apologies for the delay… This one has been way overdue. Thanks to the many people that have enquired as to what is happening with these mail outs/missives and whether or not they have fallen off the list or whether it has just stopped altogether. I had a break for a few reasons. It has been a manic summer, the time hasn't been there and when it was all I could really write about was going to sound slightly pretentious and a bit large. I don't want to be telling you about all the jet set travels with London Grammar I want to talk about things that mean something to me, are music related and hopefully interesting. It has been a fun summer, the globe has been trod and there have been great things to report but it hasn't felt right plus I have been on and off the radio with an annoying irregularity… for me and some of you. Well I am back and inspired ! I have just gotten in from a very small and intimate screening of the film 'Northern Soul' and it has blown me away. Not that I am the biggest Northern Soul fan, far from it, a lot of it gets on my nerves and just doesn't connect… Too fast, too mid rangy and just not my thing. Black music for white people is what I have regularly called it. Indie kids always like it and it is so far removed from much of todays music - it feels kind of safe, approved as it is a bonafide classic scene - I couldn't care less about that. I need to feel it ! Don't get me wrong there are many tunes from this genre that I love but never enough for me to really get excited about it. A few tracks, if any, on those many Kent compilations and lots of other ones that I have heard and liked but have been impossible to track down and buy. It took me about 15 years to find out what piece of genius Luther Ingram's 'If It's All The Same To Me' (featured in the film in its B side incarnation as Exus Trek) was and then to get it. Anyway, I had heard about the film being forthcoming and was intrigued. I then got sent a promo CD which featured a few tracks that I knew but I was loathed to play it as I thought it would be full of those uptempo stomping numbers that just go whizzing above my forehead. I was wrong, the compilation is possibly the best one of its kind. I don't like all of the tracks but some that I have discovered through being on the compilation are just amazing pieces of soul music. Uptempo yes but not as barn storming, they feel more groove based with a funk and some have an almost jazz feel to the instrumentation. Take Lou Pride's 'I'm Com'un Home In The Morn'un'. This tune is absolutely amazing… a funktified bassline groove with some amazingly out horns and an amazingly soulful vocal (that is a basic pre requisit for this music). Northern undoubtedly but not as I knew it. There are so many tracks on this double CD that have opened my mind to othersides of Northern Soul yet I am still not a 100% convert as ever I am magpieing my way through this and most other music genres (always with a foot heavily in the world of funk, soul and jazz leading me to it's modern derivatives) but I have been so wowed by so many tracks on this album some known and others new to me - Eddie Holman, Rita & The Tiara's, Sam Dee's, James Fountain, Darrow Fletcher, Linda Jones - I could go on. It's a great album and I would highly recommend it. Currently at number 4 in the compilation album charts as I was told tonight above 'Now 2306' or whatever they are up to and many other TV advertised albums - which is nice !! The album features a bonus DVD which I watched and got the back drop to the movie. A chat with Elaine Constantine the director about the making of the film and her inspiration for making it and a great interview with Richard Searling who was a DJ at Wigan Casino (and is a general all round soul legend) and one of the many inspirations for this film. So I was all set for the nights preview but wondering if it would be a good film or another one of those clubby/club based films where it feels nearly right but actually turns out to be crap, let down by bad acting or a bad script. It was neither and an all round triumph. Set in a run down part of Manchester in the early/mid 70's it follows the story of a young discontented guy (lets call him a teenager) who inadvertently discovers the sound and the dancing one night at a youth club's disco when his soon to be best mate is allowed to play one Northern Soul record at that youth club disco. He sees a great dancer doing his thing - the soon to be best mate - and then saves him from a beating from some non convert local kids who knock him for his dancing and clothes. A bond is formed right there, he is intrigued by the sound and the dancing, gets given some speed, a tape of Northern set from a night in Blackpool and then spends all night speeding his head of in his bedroom, freaking out to the music and by the morning he is a convert, keen to learn the ways of Northern Soul. The music, the clothes, the dancing... He is hooked. I wont spoil the rest of the story as it unfolds but he begins a journey into a scene that is not just specific to Northern Soul. The film captures the essence of the passion that music and their associated scenes generate. The kid falls in love with everything about the music. It takes over his life and his journey has begun. Its a troubled one but a joyous one, full of scrapes and encounters but music and dancing is at the core of it. As much as he was converted he starts to convert others and they develop their own scene and he starts to break through in the world of DJing albeit at a very lowly level as his music collecting grows It was brilliant, I could feel an affinity with him. The voyage of discovery, the addiction to it, the need to collect the music, to find out more, the need to be part of something that can and does change your life when you get that into it… The film just drew me in, it seemed very authentic as a period piece - it is meant to be set 40 years ago, not that I have any idea what those clubs where like but it feels like they should have been like that. So in essence I highly recommend it, and the accompanying compilation album. If you have a fleeting interest in it I'd pick it up. You'll discover some great music…and feel the passion"! What an incredible heartfelt review! This film is reaching way beyond the core audience and reaching many people in many ways. Killer film. What else do you need to know!

Where is it defintely on where I can defintely buy tickets? London only. Most films come out here. I'm pretty sure it wasn't designed for the critics and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't really get it anyway. This film has had zero support from the UK film business as far as I can make out and I think it's been pigeon-holed as a little English film about a quaint sub-culture which will have minimal commercial appeal and a limited audience. Which is entirely predictable in my view. That's what I expected them to think. So no surprise there. But it's difficult to ignore a little English film about a quaint sub-culture when the soundtrack has entered the UK Top 10 album chart with minimal marketing spend. Not so little anymore. And watch those screens grow. 3 weeks to release. Blackburn premiere this Saturday and London premiere on 2nd October. Lots of PR and Radio coming up and hopefully more and more people will embrace this film. The grass-roots support has been nothing short of incredible. Great stuff!

So excuse me for being sceptical... Where is it on and when? It's a simple enough question. Curzon Victoria The Gate Greenwich picture house Dalston 17th Oct for first 3, 18th for last one I think, but best check.

Guest stevemcmahon Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 When and where? I can't find any info about where it's on on line...Even on the official site.(I mean a proper cinema where I can go one night after work or summat, not a soul nite...) I would actually quite like to go and see it. There have been so many posts on this site from people who seem to have a vested (and baggied) interest but no actual info on its release....And now we are asked to mither our local cinema to show it? So excuse me for being sceptical... Where is it on and when? It's a simple enough question. Really? If you read the original post all the info you need is right there: "The up-to-date official list of Independent cinema's screening Elaine's film can be found here: https://bit.ly/NorthernSoulCinemas" The old adage; "..damned if you do/don't" springs to mind. If this film were fully distributed & plastered all over the main cinemas you can guarantee it would be labelled as a sell out by a certain few. The situation of limited availability is what it is for certain reason which are best left alone, yet in an ironic twist have placed this film into a position which kind of befits an underground youth culture; that of being unavailable to the masses but possible to find if you dig deep enough. We are fortunate to live in a time where with very little effort it is now possible to join forces & directly lobby our local cinemas to screen a film which fully deserves the support from the scene it documents positively & for posterity. I for one can't wait for my teenage son to finally get a glimpse into the scene which was a big part of my youth & the essence of which is somewhat diluted these days by 'old folk' doing Dad dancing. The fact alone that Elaine & her team invested so much time & effort (over 4 years) into ensuring her young actors & extras got the moves (& the passion) right is testament to how much care has been put into getting this right & I for one can't wait to support it.
