NFSA Book Club with Chris Flynn

BOOK CLUB AT THE NFSA IN PARTNERSHIP WITH CANBERRA WRITERS FESTIVAL

Billionaire industrialist John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) invites a star-studded group of consultants, including Grant (Sam Neill), Ellie (Laura Dern) and Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum), to his remote island to unveil an astounding theme park populated by living dinosaurs – and then the dinos escape.

Wowing the world with cutting-edge CGI, Steven Spielberg’s epic reimagining of Michael Crichton’s novel, with its swelling John Williams score, is just as thrilling as it was 30 years ago.

“For dinosaurs to rule the earth again, the monsters needed majesty as well as menace. And Spielberg got it all right.” – Time

The screening will be followed by a discussion of the film and the novel with special guest author Chris Flynn(Mammoth, Here Be Leviathans).

Tickets can be purchased here.
