REVIEW: Legion
Basically, this is a film of machine wielding angels. Well known for his work on the visual effects teams of films like ‘Harry Potter’, ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’, ‘Red Cliff’ and ‘Blade Runner’, Scott Stewart offers up his latest hack-saw go at writing, and directing. BY LAURA SHEARER

REVIEW: The Screwtape Letters
Queen’s University Players put on a hell raising performance of ‘The Screwtape Letters’ adapted for the stage by Nigel Forde from the novel by C.S. Lewis. Starring Shiraz Engineer as the cunning Screwtape and directed by the watchful eyes of Nathan Duddy and Shalom Joy Carr. The tale depicts the rise and fall of the senior devil Screwtape, whilst following the antics of her two newest students who although have much to learn, end up teaching Screwtape a lesson. Not only a truly hilarious play, it delves deeper by exploring the timeless battle of good V evil. BY CLAIRE WILLIAMSON

FEATURE: Fame is only a click away for local talent
If you have a creative idea that you want to broadcast, the internet is becoming more and more lucrative, and with sites to share videos, music and your written thoughts, there are endless chances to connect with a worldwide audience. This is especially handy when you are stuck on an island far from the glamour of Hollywood, as I assume most Gown readers are. BY MATTHEW ROBB

COMMENT: Exploiting indebted student drivers?
Finding a parking space around Queen’s is a nightmare. Students who have saved and paid to learn the valuable skill to drive, and paid to insure and tax their cars, are being forced to abandon them in their driveways because it is simply impossible to find a space to park around Queen’s. This is an accepted grievance for student commuters who are getting up hours before lectures just to park. However, rumours of the introduction of paid parking around the city centre campus will not only frustrate local businesses but force indebted students to fork out even more to receive a university education.
