Happenings in association with Guinness Open Gate Brewery is set to host a series of three open-air screenings on August 29, September 5 and 19. The Dublin based pop-up cultural events company are famous for their open air cinema.

The Guinness Open Gate Brewery is the experimental brewery at St. James’s Gate where the Guinness brewers can brew up anything they dream up. Consumers can visit from Thursday to Saturday and try a range of experimental beers, only available in the brewery, and delicious bites from the new kitchen on site.

For the first time ever, the Guinness Gates are being opened to a special cinematic experience with the chance to enjoy a big-screen open air moment in the heart of the working brewery, a truly unique opportunity.

The movies will range from iconic classics, to nostalgic throwbacks and homegrown modern favourites. First up will be the original and best Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, the 1971 classic starring Gene Wilder. This will be followed by Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey’s rhythmic and romantic Dirty Dancing, featuring the Academy Award winning song (I’ve Had) The Time of My Life.  The final screening will be Sing Street, the 2016 coming of age comedy-drama set in 1980’s Dublin and featuring an all-star Irish cast and crew.

All three screenings will also feature exciting new beers, available exclusively and for a limited time, brewed up by the team at the Guinness Open Gate Brewery, the home to all beer innovation and experimentation at St. James’s Gate.

The beers will be enjoyed alongside Cornude Artisan Popcorn. Made here in The Liberties by food adventurer Ruth, it is not mass-produced or put through factory processes, but made to order in her artisan kitchen with ingredients that are full of gorgeous, hand-picked taste combinations which have palates poppin’ at every turn. Meanwhile the Guinness Open Gate Brewery kitchen will also be open for all screenings and serving delicious ‘cinema snack’ themed dishes for all to enjoy, under the direction of executive chef Sean Hunter.

Tickets cost €12.80 and include access to one screening and a pint or paddle of choice from the Guinness Open Gate Brewery selection of both limited edition innovation brews and classic beers such as Guinness Draught.

Tickets go on-sale on August 22 and will be available from Happenings Usheru page https://happenings.usheru.com/the-festival

Happenings at Guinness Open Gate Brewery is a strictly over 18s event.

Steamy scenes ahoy: Love Island viewers tonight could be in for more than they bargained for, with Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury heading off to the Hideaway.

The private bedroom has only seen Curtis and Amy inside it so far this season, while no couple is thought to have had sex the room yet.

Seeing as Molly-Mae and Tommy became officially boyfriend and girlfriend last week and even dropped the L bomb, will they give in to the temptation of the Hideaway?

The teaser for the next episode sees the lucky couple spending the night there. Molly-Mae is left shocked as the Islanders choose her and Tommy to earn some privacy. 

Still dressed in her maid costume after performing a lapdance for the boxer in the Dirty Dancing challenge, she looks scarlet when she's chosen.

“It’s down to you to choose one lucky couple to have a sleepover," the text reads, which was delivered to Maura. A "Tommy and Molly-Mae" chant even erupts in the villa, much to Tommy's embarrassment.

Tommy had everyone's attention after he carried out his lapdance dressed in a boxing robe, before ripping off his trousers for his girlfriend.

Meanwhile, Amber is excited after getting Michael's heart rate racing in the challenge, but it gets chaotic as the girls must decide which boy is getting dumped from the island.

New Essex girl Francesca is torn between Curtis and Ovie, but World War Three will ensue if Ovie is told to leave. Honestly, he's the true hero of the 2019 series, and he deserves love at all costs.

Tune in tonight at 9pm to see what goes down in the Hideaway, and who must pack their bags.

Lady Bird is one of the most talked about films of the year. The coming-of-age tale touched the hearts of millions across the world.

I couldn’t hold back the tears when I first went to see Lady Bird at the cinema. The tears just wouldn’t stop rolling and it wasn’t because it’s an upsetting movie, it’s because Lady Bird is real.

It’s the coming-of-age movie that we’ve wanted to see for years. It’s brutally honest and has real heart, so it’ll come as no surprise to hear that star of the film Saoirse Ronan is honoured to be part of such a life-changing film.

She gushed about playing the rebellious and relatable Lady Bird in an interview with RTÉ Entertainment.

“It really has sort of become a film for the generation, which is so cool, and so cool to be involved in something like that."

Coming-of-age movies like The Breakfast Club and The Perks of Being a Wallflower hold a special place in the hearts of youths all across the globe.

“I loved things like Rebel Without a Cause and Dirty Dancing. Lots of films that, I suppose, were about a young person figuring out who they were in the world. That seemed to be what I was really drawn to,” Saoirse expressed.

She continued: “Things like Clueless – I think that was such an important film for so many young people when that came out. More than anything, it was about three girls being themselves, and they all had such distinctive characters."

The Oscar-nominated Lady Bird raked in $76.9 million at the box office, Saoirse won a Golden Globe for her performance in the film and writer-director Greta Gerwig has inspired millions of women to get their work out there, but more importantly, Lady Bird became the movie that our generation has needed for years.

If you grew up on a diet of Dirty Dancing quotes and regularly attempt to re-enact the moves after a vino or seven, then chances are you'd love to visit the resort which played as big a role in the 1987 movie as Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze.

And here's the thing; you actually can…. as long as you remember to head to Virginia, not New York as the movie would suggest.

 

Kellerman's!

A post shared by Mountain Lake Lodge (@mtnlakelodge) on

The Kellerman Resort, as it was known in the film, actually goes by the name Mountain Lake Hotel, and is located in Pembroke, Virginia.

Unsurprisingly, the resort routinely pays tribute to the classic feel-good film, with three Dirty Dancing-themed weekends every year.

That's right, you can actually recreate scenes from the movie in the very place it was filmed thirty years ago.

 

Dirty Dancing Remembered!

A post shared by Mountain Lake Lodge (@mtnlakelodge) on

Oh, and if your obsession with the movie runs to the stalkerish and you've any Stateside visits earmarked for the future, you can even stay in the cabin Baby and her family stayed in during that fateful summer back in 1963.

Ladies, we feel a search for flights coming on…

Stacey Soloman and Joe Swash made their relationship public only a few months ago, but they're already #CoupleGoals to us.

The pair are away on holidays at the moment and have been recreating a few movie moments.

Taking to Instagram, Stacey first uploads a small clip of them doing the iconic Dirty Dancing lift… and we have to say, Joe is quite good at it:

 

Nobody throws baby into muddy sand!

A few hours later Stacey uploaded another snap, this time recreating the Lady and the Tramp's famous spaghetti scene:

Dirty Dancing is one of those movies you watch when you need cheering up, or if you're having a movie night with your friends. Actually, it's one of those movies that just suits any situation and that's why we love it so much.

However, now ABC has made a remake of the movie, which will only be aired on TV, and well, we don't really know how we feel about that.

The original was just so perfect, from Patrick's moves, to Jennifer's watermelons, there's nothing we would change.

The new movie stars Little Miss Sunshine's Abigail Breslin, who plays Baby and Colt Prattes, who plays Johnny.

Nicole Scherzinger is playing Johnny's pregnant dance partner, Penny.

Let's just say they have big shoes to fill!

When Sarah Hyland dyed her golden locks black…we didn't know how to feel about it.

Of course she's gorgeous and looks good no matter what colour her hair is, but let's be honest, it was a BIG change.

However, now that we have warmed to the darker hue (and found out the reason for the change), we're ready to switch up our do's after her most recent Dirty Dancing snap.

According to Teen Vogue, Sarah's hairstylist explained that the actress went to the dark side because she is transforming into her character, Lisa Houseman, for the upcoming remake of Dirty Dancing.

But now, Sarah has unveiled the next step in her transformation, and that's very, very long hair.

In an Instagram pic of the new do', Sarah captioned the snap, "Say hello to Lisa Houseman." Hello, indeed. We think it's time to make an appointment with our hairdresser.

Dirty Dancing is a total classic and never fails to give us all the feels whenever we watch it. 

Which is a LOT. 

So when we heard that they were doing a US TV remake, we were a little sceptical even though we knew we would totally be glued to our screens. 

And now it has been revealed that one of our fave actresses, Sarah Hyland, has joined the cast which already features Nicole Scherzinger and Abigail Breslin in the lead role as Baby. 

The Modern Family actress is believed to have landed the role of Baby's older sister, Lisa, which means she may not be up to too much dirty dance-moves in the film. 

ABC is preparing to make a three hour adaptation of the original classic and with the original screenwriter on board, we have hopes that it won't be absolutely terrible. 

There is still no word on who is going to take Patrick Swayze's role in the reboot and well, let's just say whoever he is, he has VERY big shoes to fill.

We had a few actresses in our heads when we thought of a modern day Baby, but we can't say that this young actress sprung to mind.  

American actress Abigail Breslin has been cast in the role and you may remember her as the adorable kid in Little Miss Sunshine. 

The former child star and Scream Queens actress is now 19 and has won the coveted role in the hotly anticipated remake. 

ABC is preparing to make a three hour adaptation of the original classic and with the original screenwriter on board, we have hopes that it won't be absolutely terrible. 

There is still no word on who is going to take Patrick Swayze's role in the reboot and well, let's just say whoever he is, he has VERY big shoes to fill. 

There has been no release date for the movie as of yet but we have no doubts that Abigail will kill in the role.

Besides, we already know she has the moves.
