About Fantasy/Animation Series screening of Jason and the Argonauts (1963)
The first of a series of Fantasy/Animation screenings curated by Christopher Holliday and Alexander Sergeant.
Jason and the Argonauts (1963), directed by Don Chaffey, and made in collaboration with stop-motion animation master Ray Harryhausen. It features a score by Bernard Herrmann. Harryhausen regarded the film as his best, and it is notable for the iconic fight scene featuring seven skeleton warriors.
Animator Astrid Goldsmith has kindly agreed to take part in a Q&A following the screening. Astrid, who runs Mock Duck Studios, will also show her 2-minute monster movie Polymer, which was inspired by Jason and the Argonauts and has a mix of puppet animation and humans. It was made in 8 weeks as a commission for SALT, a festival of the sea and environment.
Doors open at 18.30, and the film starts at 19.30.
Refreshments will be available in our licensed cafe/bar.
