Plans are under way to find Northern Ireland’s favourite family film! The search is part of Cinemagic International Film and Television Festival’s 20th Anniversary celebrations that culminate in its annual 16 day festival from 11th-26th November.
From ‘A spoonful of sugar’, to ‘There’s no place like home’ to ‘Infinity and beyond’, family films evoke excitement, nostalgia and childhood wonder in all cinema-goers. Whether we cheer for good guys, bad guys, pirates, gangsters or wizards, the gripping plots and classic soundtracks of these unforgettable films have defined movie-making for a century and we all have a favourite!
Cinemagic has screened thousands of films over the last twenty years and the classic family films are a guaranteed favourite. This year the Cinemagic Festival wants to hear from you! Which family film should be crowned Northern Ireland’s favourite? What makes you a fan of ‘The Sound of Music’ over ‘Willy Wonka’? Are you mesmerized by the flying bicycles in ‘ET’ or do you prefer the non-stop adventure of ‘The Goonies’? Perhaps you can watch ‘The Wizard of Oz’ time and time again or maybe nothing beats the 3D world of Jessie, Buzz and Woody!
Joan Burney Keatings, Cinemagic Chief Executive commented ”The world of movies is a vibrant and integral part of family life that bridges all generations young and old. Everyone has a favourite family film and Cinemagic is extremely excited about discovering what story from the silver screen really captures the imagination of the public.”
How to vote: Film fans of all ages can submit the title of their favourite family film to Cinemagic by emailing favouritefamilyfilm@cinemagic.org.uk
Please include your name, age, county you live in and a short description of why it is your favourite family film. The closing date for entries is 11th October 2010. The film that receives the most votes will be screened in Belfast in November as part of Cinemagic’s 20th Anniversary Film Festival.
