Come and see In The Loop with us
To mark Mumbrella’s first birthday, we’d like to invite you to join us for a drink and a movie.
We’re holding an exclusive preview screening of political PR satire In The Loop on the night of Tuesday December 15 at the Verona Cinema on Oxford Street in Sydney.
The event – which comes more than a month before the Australian release date of January 21 – is in association with word of mouth agency Soup and distributor Madman Entertainment.
The movie features the behind-the-scenes PR machinations of government in London and Washington.
The event is free to Mumbrella readers. Drinks are at 6pm, with the movie starting at 7pm sharp.
To receive a pair of tickets, simply email sean@focalattractions.com.au. We’ll allocate places on a first come, first served basis. If you get in early enough you’ll receive confirmation that you’re on the guest list. (Update: All the places have now gone. If you’d like to go on the waiting list in case anyone can’t make it, please email sean@focalattractions.com.au.)
Do bear in mind that there’s a LOT of swearing.

By the way, I’ve seen this film twice already – once on a plane, and also at an earlier screening. I strongly recommend it.
I’ve learned a lot of excellent new swear phrases from chief spin doctor Malcolm Tucker (I apologise for any offence to anyone who I’ve recently informed that I’m tickety fuckety boo).
If you want to see it, you’ll have to move fast – we’ve had about 30 places go since we posted this piece about 15 minutes ago.
Cheers,
Tim – Mumbrella
Fabulous movie. Contains one of my all time favourite lines –
“Y’know, I’ve come across a lot of psychos, but none as fucking boring as you. You are a real boring fuck. Sorry, sorry, I know you disapprove of swearing so I’ll sort that out. You are a boring F, star, star, CUNT!”
it is quite brilliant – as good as biting satire ever gets. Plus I absolutely LOVE swearing and I reckon I’m pretty good at it. But these guys taught me a thing or two about creative swearing (as Steve details above). I picked up some amazing ideas for combining swearwords to make powerful swear phrases.
I can’t wait until my next visit from the in-laws.
