Kixott Movie Nights: Office Space

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

Work sucks, we know. Mike Judge's cult classic comedy-cum-satire of the lower rungs of corporate existence may feel like an escapist utopia now that we've lived through multiple recessions and a pandemic since it's arrival on the scene in 1999. A decent-sized cubicle and a steady paycheck? Sign me up! Still, a man doesn't live…

Kixott Movie Nights: Run Lola Run

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

When a certain fellow by the name of Harvey Weinstein discovered that his company, Miramax, had failed to acquire the American distribution rights for Run Lola Run, the German breakout hit on everyone's tongue in 1998, he was understandably furious. Less understandably, perhaps, he reacted by throwing a lit cigarette in the face of the…

Kixott Movie Nights: Flawless

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

Love him or loathe him, the late Joel Schumacher's legacy as a master of the camp spectacle is hard to deny. He may have squandered a plethora of goodwill with the misjudged atrocities that were Batman Forever and Batman & Robin, but this prolific hit-churner also gifted us with The Lost Boys, Falling Down, Phone…

Kixott Movie Nights: Night Owl – A Seoul Stories Short Film

Kixott Movie Nights: Le Samouraï

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

You may be cool, but you sure as hell ain't Alain Delon-at-his-peak cool. That's just something you'll have to deal with for the rest of your life, so you may as well start processing now. A key part of that process would begin with sitting down to watch Le Samouraï, one of the seminal collaborations…

Kixott Movie Nights: To Die For

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

It's a good thing that celebrity culture was eradicated from this earth entirely soon after this darkly satirical cult classic made its way to the multiplexes back in 1995. It's not like what used to be 'limited' to merely TV and print magazines has now spilled over onto palm-portable little machines that help us to…

Kixott Movie Nights: Talk to her

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

Spanish auteur Pedro Almodóvar's sprint across the international cinema landscape remains undimmed, and he continues to rush through the firmament with the kind of bold, brash energy that characterises his most beloved works. There are some standouts among his oeuvre, though, and Talk to Her is one of them. Weaponising Almodóvar's expert manipulation of complex,…

Kixott Movie Nights: The Triplets of Belleville

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

Oozing charm and riotous imagination in each of its lusciously animated frames, Sylvain Chomet's animated adventure casts a spell that will have you humming and buzzing long after the credits have rolled. The jazzy, rollicking adventure is largely free of dialogue but rich in unforgettable, quirky incident, as an elderly lady presses on to rescue…

Kixott Movie Nights: Fellini Satyricon

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

It's a springtime midweek and you're sat there thinking, "what I really need right now is to sit back at my favourite Mosta cultural centre to enjoy an adaptation of a chaotic, erotically-charged ancient Roman novel by one of history's greatest filmmakers". Well, you're in luck, because Kixott is not afraid to showcase the very…

Kixott Movie Nights: Go

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

"Life begins at 3am," the tagline reads. It also reads "from the director of Swingers", who soon also became the director of The Bourne Identity. But while Go most emphatically does NOT track the journey of an amnesiac super-spy, Doug Liman's hyper-kinetic style is very much in evidence here, where 'one wild night' is seen…

Kixott Movie Nights: The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant

Kixott 169 Triq Il-Kbira •, • Mosta, Malta

One of the signature works of acclaimed German auteur Rainer Werner Fassbinder - which makes it one of the landmark works of European cinema by proxy - The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant (1972) takes place in a single room, but packs a strong emotional whallop for it. It's no surprise that it's gone…
