Dolly’s Film Club X Art of Action: Tank Girl (15)

Dir. Rachel Talalay
1995 | 104 mins | US, UK
Lori Petty, Ice-T, Naomi Watts


“In 2033, justice rides a tank and wears lip gloss”

Join Dolly for some feminist, post-apocalyptic chaos, in this truly bonkers adaptation of the much loved Alan Martin and Jamie Hewlett comic.

Tank Girl (Lori Petty) and Jet Girl (Naomi Watts) take on mega-corporation, Power & Water, who’s CEO (a deliciously evil Malcolm Macdonald) is hoarding the scant water in a drought ridden Australia, leaving a trail of dead bodies of anyone who gets in Power & Water’s way.

Tank Girl serves some iconic looks, kicks ass and all to a soundtrack by the inimitable Courtney Love.


Cat Nip

We will be joined by the fantastic Jenny from Gnash Comics & Graphic Novels with a pop up comic shop and an introduction to the rebellious legacy of the Tank Girl comics.


Dolly’s Film Club

Dolly’s Film Club is a monthly film club that celebrates the camp, fun, queer, under-appreciated and unapologetically enjoyable side of cinema, but most of all Dolly’s Film Club is to celebrate the JOY of being an audience.

You are always encouraged to wear fancy dress or ‘vibes’ outfits to Dolly’s Film Club, and there’s always a little bit extra catnip involved in our screenings.

Everyone is welcome, come as a group or by yourself, as soon as you come to a Dolly’s Film Club event you are in our club!

(Dolly is also a cat 🐈)
