For this Special Thursday Cinema Night, first up is Christiane F. (1981), a German teen drama about a teenage girl who starts clubbing in Berlin in the 70s, and begins a romance with a handsome, charming guy. That would all be fine and good, except that she also gets into heroin on the side. I’m sure this will go well. Apparently, this movie is one of the most commonly-shown films in German schools, which makes me curious. Generally compared to stuff like Trainspotting (1996) and Requiem for a Dream (2000). This is the best-known and best-regarded work of director Uli Edel.

After that is Four Lions (2010), a British satirical comedy about a quartet of jihadists who plot an attack against the West, only to be pulled apart by their conflicting ideologies, particularly in the conflict between their fundamentalist understanding of Islam and their consumerist mindset toward Western pop culture. Apparently right-wingers didn’t like this film because it “glorifies terrorists”, which is a better endorsement than the reviews, which are great. This is the only notable feature film to date of director Chris Morris, who has otherwise been active in TV and radio.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Blorptube, right here:
