My Name is Jonah (Healy/Sapienza, 2014): Prince Charles Cinema, 8.45pm


This is the first night of the Duke Mitchell Film Club fest. More details of the full weekend here.

Here is the Duke Mitchell introduction to tonight's entertainment:
Are you ready to meet Jonah? Then get ready as The Duke brings you face-to-face with the most mysterious icon ever to emerge from New York in the European Premiere of ‘My Name Is Jonah’. At once a portrait and a gateway into the weird and wonderful world of Jonah this film tells the story of the man who’s a martial artist, an adventurer, a vigilante and an internet icon! You will be hard pressed to believe your eyes as Jonah’s story slowly reveals a man who has been dressing as Punisher, Robin Hood, Sinbad, Highlander and more to create the most outrageous holiday cards found on the face of the Universe, all the while living a life that most of us dream of involving swords, karate, Russian brides and much, much more. Charismatic, mysterious, unpredictable and just a little quirky, Jonah is a true wonder – as are the people who surround him. So this June, do not miss your one and only UK chance to meet Jonah, to enter his world and who knows maybe even hear a masterful song from his harmonica!

Here (and above) is the trailer.
