Pamela Anderson is a revelation in this poignant Vegas-set drama that sees a seasoned showgirl having to plan for her future when her long-running show abruptly closes.

A poignant film of resilience, rhinestones and feathers, stars Anderson as Shelley, a glamorous showgirl who must plan for her future when her show closes after a 30-year run. She has not just lost a job she adored, at an age when she is unlikely to get another like it; she has lost her very identity. Gia Coppola's (granddaughter of Francis Ford Coppola) latest is an atmospheric and sympathetic drama about the showgirls on the Vegas strip, featuring sharply drawn characters and outstanding performances from Jamie Lee Curtis as Shelley’s friend Annette, and Pamela Anderson, who both play their roles with a lack of vanity that gives the film its enthralling power.

Exhibition on Screen

The Impressionists are the most popular group in art history – millions flock every year to marvel at their masterpieces. But, to begin with, they were scorned, penniless outsiders. 1874 was the year that changed everything; the first Impressionists, “hungry for independence”, broke the mould by holding their own exhibition outside official channels. Impressionism was born and the art world was changed forever.

What led to that first groundbreaking show 150 years ago? Who were the maverick personalities that wielded their brushes in such a radical and provocative way? The spectacular Musée d’Orsay exhibition brings fresh eyes to this extraordinary tale of passion and rebellion. The story is told not by historians and curators but in the words of those who witnessed the dawn of Impressionism: the artists, press and people of Paris, 1874. Made in close collaboration with the Musée d’Orsay and National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.

In this campus-life comedy/drama, a lecturer persuades her uncle to direct her school's theatrical skit due to his past experience. While sketching near a stream, a scandalous incident involving students occurs, implicating both of them.

In the wake of a scandal involving several of her students, Jeonim (Kim Minhee), an artist and lecturer at a women's university, asks her uncle Chu Sieon (Kwon Haehyo) to step in and direct a short play for the skit festival put on by her department. Her uncle is an actor-director, recently blacklisted after a scandal of his own. He decides to direct the short play because of a similar experience directing a play at the same university 40 years earlier. It doesn't take long before Sieon develops feelings for Jeonim's colleague, Professor Jeong (Cho Yunhee), a textile professor. This is a very enjoyable celebration of the creative process, and more specifically, of artists following their impulses when it comes to idea generation and collaboration. (Subtitles)
