Garage DVD release follows the film’s huge success at the IFTA's taking home
a grand total of four awards including Best Actor, Best Directors, Best Script
and the Best Film but tributes for Garage are not all home grown – it also took awards at the Cannes Film Festival.
Josie (Pat Shortt) has spent 20 years as the caretaker of a crumbling petrol station in small-town Ireland. Despite
loneliness and the fact that his neighbours treat him as a figure of fun, he’s always good natured, absurdly optimistic
and, in his own peculiar way, happy; he has his place - it might not be great, but it’s his.
Garage is the story of
Josie’s hapless search for intimacy over the course of a summer which sees his little niche threatened and his life changed forever.

'Love & Savagery' Begins Filming in Clare
Cameras began rolling in Co. Clare this week with a four week shoot planned on Ireland’s west coast.
The €4million production then moves to St. John's Newfoundland for a further four weeks of principal photography.
The romantic drama is written by screenwriter Des Walsh (Random Passage) and directed by John N. Smith (Dangerous Minds, A Cool Dry Place).
Love and Savagery is a Canadian/Irish co-production. Set in 1968, the romance follows a young Canadian scientist who finds love exploring Ireland’s
geology – but the woman’s prior commitment to God and the church stands in their way.
Canadian actor Allan Hawco (Closing the Ring) and Irish actress Sarah Greene (Eden)
head the cast with supporting performances from Martha Burns (Silk), Sean Panting, Macdara Ó Fatharta (Cre na Cille) and Nicholas Campbell (Cinderella Man).

Rent Now - Lions For Lambs
Directed by Academy Award winner Robert Redford, the story begins after two determined
students at a West Coast University, Arian (Derek Luke) and Ernest (Michael Pena),
follow the inspiration of their idealistic professor, Dr. Malley (Redford), and
attempt to do something important with their lives. But when the two make the
bold decision to join the battle in Afghanistan, Malley is both moved and distraught.
Now, as Arian and Ernest fight for survival in the field, they become the
string that binds together two disparate stories on opposite sides of America.
In California, an anguished Dr. Malley attempts to reach a privileged but
disaffected student (Andrew Garfield) who is the very opposite of Arian and Ernest.
Meanwhile, in Washington D.C. the charismatic Presidential hopeful, Senator Jasper
Irving (Tom Cruise), is about to give a bombshell story to a probing TV journalist
(Meryl Streep) that may affect Arian and Ernest's fates. As arguments, memories
and bullets fly, the three stories are woven ever more tightly together, revealing
how each of these Americans has a profound impact on each other and the world.

Staff Choice
Staff choice this month is a trip down memory lane. With the next
and long awaited instalment of the Indiana Jones saga on its way,
we believe it’s time to rewind in preparation.
It’s hard to believe
that it was twenty seven years ago that Harrison Ford first dawned
the hat and whip to become Indiana Jones in "Raiders of the Lost Ark".
The movie and the story has aged well, probably better than Ford himself,
and it’s more deserving than every of those four Oscars.
Raiders of the Lost Ark,
The Temple of Doom and
The Last Crusade are all available to rent from Screenclick today!
