An extra Auckland screening of Liberace biopic Behind the Candelabra has been announced. The New Zealand International Film Festival says it has been one of the hits, and the fresh screening is due to popular demand. Starring Michael Douglas as the flamboyant and closeted Liberace and Matt Damon as his hot young boyfriend, GayNZ.com content editor Jay Bennie described the film as “magnificently acted and beautifully filmed” in his review. Read Jay Bennie's review here Behind the Candelabra will show at SKYCITY Theatre on Sunday 4 August at 6.30PM. The film shows in Christchurch tonight, the first of three showings.
