This Event / Season is closed...

Young at Heart, Sydney’s Seniors Film Festival, celebrates its 5th big year in 2010 with four days of exciting cinema and tickets from just $5 for seniors at Sydney’s Dendy Opera Quays.

Returning March 25 – 28 as a flagship event of NSW Seniors Week, the popular event features film premieres, restored classics, Q&A’s with visiting artists and free filmmaking workshops
The Festival will open on March 25 with a day dedicated to the great Charlie Chaplin: a screening of MODERN TIMES alongside THE BOOT CAKE, a new Australian documentary presented by director Kathryn Millard about the enduring love for the Little Tramp around the globe.

The event will close 4 days later with a special preview of THE LAST STATION, a love story set during the last year of the life of the great Russian writer Leo Tolstoy, featuring Oscar-nominated performances by Helen Mirren and Christopher Plummer.

In between, audiences will be treated to the return of beloved classics on the big screen. Sure to be popular are the great musicals of Vincente Minnelli, MEET ME IN ST LOUIS and THE BAND WAGON, the latter introduced by legendary performer Toni Lamond. Elvis fans are in for a treat too, with a remastered print of the seminal 1970 documentary ELVIS: THAT’S THE WAY IT IS.

All screenings are at Dendy Opera Quays, 9/2 East Circular Quay, Sydney
