A film partly made on location in Bradford and nominated for eight Golden Globe awards can be seen at the National Media Museum next month.

The King’s Speech, starring Colin Firth as a stammering King George VI and Helena Bonham Carter as his wife Queen Elizabeth, is scheduled for 23 screenings in the UNESCO City of Film from Friday, January 21.

That is five days after the 68th Golden Globes ceremony in Los Angeles.

Tom Hooper’s £4.5 million film, already winner of the People’s Choice Award at the Toronto International Film Festival, was partly filmed at Odsal Stadium and Elland Road.

NMM film producer Ben Eagle and Tony Earnshaw, head of film programming, appear as extras.

Mr Eagle said: “Tony features as a copper standing behind Bertie; I’m one of the faces as Colin Firth looks through his microphone.

“It was one of the coldest days I can remember at Elland Road as Colin Firth delivered ‘the speech’ to approximately 100 background artists and over 500 plastic dummies.”

The NMM is also showing The Arbor, based on the life of Buttershaw playwright Andrea Dunbar and a Saturday, January 15, preview of West is West, the sequel to East is East, featuring Bradford-born actor Aqib Khan.

The 1960 British chiller Peeping Tom, the film that wrecked Michael Powell’s career as a director in this country, is also showing in January. The story, about the member of a movie crew who murders young women using a specially adapted camera, was condemned as tastelessly voyeuristic.

From Boxing Day, the museum is screening The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader 3D, starring Ilkley actress Georgie Henley.

Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan, a crime thriller starring French actor Vincent Cassel as the conniving director of a New York ballet company trying to inject new life into Swan Lake, is showing from Friday, January 28.

On Thursday, February 3, the National Theatre’s production of King Lear, starring Sir Derek Jacobi, can be seen live on screen at Pictureville cinema, direct from the Donmar Warehouse theatre in London’s Covent Garden.
