Weta Workshop is where all special effects for the movie were done, where most of the props and costumes were made, and it was also one of the indoor filming studios. Now Weta Workshop opened part of the building as a museum called Weta Cave, where visitors are told about the making of special effects and props, and where many of the props used in the movies are displayed. You can book your Weta tour here.

The TV series has been receiving rave reviews so why not go back to the film that started it all? What could go wrong when best friends Conor and Jock go on a road trip to try and find some cocaine and make some money after a drug-trafficking boat capsizes in Co Cork? Peter Foott's script is full of laughs while stars Alex Murphy and Chris Walley are immensely watchable.
This 2016 comedy-drama puts an emphasis on individuality. Music fan Ned is sent to a rugby-loving boarding school and forced to room with the team's star player. The film could be in danger of being too formulaic, but director John Butler ensures his movie feels fresh, being aided by a great soundtrack and an impressive supporting role by Sherlock star Andrew Scott.
Jamie Dornan stars as Commandant Pat Quinlan in this true story about a group of Irish soldiers who, while on a peace-keeping mission for the UN, were left under siege by Katanga Gendarmerie troops. The film bagged four Iftas and is certain to keep viewers gripped, especially with strong support from the likes of Mark Strong.
WHEN the headlines hit France in April 1988 about the critical turning point in 'les evenements' down under in New Caledonia, maverick filmmaker Mathieu Kassovitz was just 18. He remembers the gritty images of the Gossanna cave siege on television. Indigenous Kanaks were reported to have massacred a quartet of gendarmes with machetes and shotguns and taken 27 others hostage (three others were captured later). There were also false reports of alleged decapitations and rape on Ouvea in the remote Loyalty Islands.
But 13 years ago, Kassovitz's father handed him the League of Human Rights report on the cave siege and he read the chilling real story for the first time. A French military force of some 300 had been deployed in a retaliatory 'invasion' of the island (pop. about 2700 at the time) and the report detailed atrocities and summary executions that had left 19 Kanak hostage-takers dead in a dawn assault on 5 May 1988.
Kassovitz (La Haine and Cafe au Lait) noted then how a dedicated and reflective negotiator, Captain Philippe Legorjus of the elite police counter-terrorism unit CIGN was a central character in the disturbing report. 'I knew then there was the material for a wonderful movie and the script was virtually written,' Kassovitz recalled in a Femail interview. The dramatic structure was in the report of those 10 days.'
On his first trip to Ouvea to explore the possibility of making the movie, it seemed many obstacles could block getting such a project off the ground. 'Ten years had passed but people were still withdrawn into their grief. The subject was tabu. There had been no closure,' he says. 'There was a lot of religious and political in-fighting within the Kanak community.' 2ff7e9595c
