Baby Pictures is our regular Friday morning film slot exclusively for carers with little ones aged twelve months and under. In this week's Baby Pictures Marlon Brando gives the performance of his career in this new 4K restoration, celebrating 70 years.

A raggedly emotional tale of individual failure and social corruption, On the Waterfront follows Terry’s deepening moral crisis as he must decide whether to remain loyal to the mob-connected union boss Johnny Friendly (Lee J. Cobb) and Johnny’s right-hand man, Terry’s brother, Charley (Rod Steiger), as the authorities close in on them.

Driven by the vivid, naturalistic direction of Elia Kazan and savoury, streetwise dialogue by Budd Schulberg, On the Waterfront was an instant sensation, winning eight Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Support Actress, Best Director and Best Screenplay and features an iconic musical score from Leonard Bernstein.

Baby Pictures 

Baby Pictures is open to carers and little ones of twelve months and under. As everyone in the cinema is a parent or carer, there’s no need to worry if it gets a little noisy. Everyone understands. Customers not accompanying a baby will be turned away.

The lights are turned up a little bit and the sound is a little softer to create a peaceful environment for you and the baby. It’s just for carers (Mum, Dad, Granny, Granda, whoever it is it looking after the tot) and babies. Up to two adults can come with a babyPlease note: we cannot allow babies over the age of 12 months to come to Baby Pictures.  

If you have any questions about Baby Pictures, please get in touch on qftmanager@qub.ac.uk.

Baby Pictures is supported by Film Hub NI.
