"It Might Get Loud" for Charity


Hot Press posted the following piece of news:

U2's Edge will introduce a special preview charity screening of Davis Guggenheim's film It Might Get Loud, on Thursday 7th January. All proceeds go to Our Lady's Children's Hospital, Crumlin.

The electric guitar isn’t so much an instrument, more of a calling in this affectionate triple-portrait of rock royalty: Led Zeppelin’s legendary Jimmy Page, U2’s very own sculptor in sound The Edge, and fiercely modern traditionalist Jack White of The White Stripes.

The IFI also unveiled its brand new luxury cinema screen and upgraded public areas and launches its new programme for the coming year. Sarah Glennie, IFI Director said “We are thrilled to announce the completion of our major 2009 redevelopment. Cinema 3 in particular has allowed us to broaden the range and depth of our programme. I’m delighted to be able to announce a full and varied programme for 2010 incorporating festivals, seasons, new collaborations, programming strands and a range of special events.”

These new initiatives for 2010 will run alongside the IFI’s already full and diverse programme of new releases from Ireland and around the world, established monthly strands from the Archive, Ireland on Sunday and IFI Stranger Than Fiction Presents..., as well as extensive IFI Irish Film Archive and IFI Education national activities.
