A restored 4k version of Geordie crime drama Get Carter is to be screened at Tyneside Cinema just days after the death of its director Mike Hodges.
The Newcastle cinema will be showing an enhanced version of the 1971 film on January 5 which is a chance to see the classic film in peak condition. The remastered version with better sound and picture quality - made possible by a partnership between The British Film Institute and Warner Bros - made its debut last year and the Tyneside decided to host the special afternoon screening as part of its 'best of 2022 season'.
And it is now set to prove a fitting tribute to Hodges who died on December 19 at the age of 90. At the time Tyneside Cinema also paid tribute on its Facebook page calling Hodges a "prolific, trailblazing director of film, theatre and television" and referring to Get Carter as a "timeless favourite" at the cinema.
