Winter Wonders
Hard though it might be to believe, some people only visit EDEN COURT once a year,
missing out on the wealth of great film and theatre showcased there which we regularly
stand on each others shoulders with a megaphone to yell the praises of. No, for them
the only time theyll make that epic journey to a faraway place a couple of hundred yards
from the city centre is for the panto. Clever of Eden Court then to make an attempt to
snag their attention by using this years panto, Peter Pan, as the inspiration for their
art Winter Exhibition, FINDING NEVERLAND [1], running throughout December. Artists
of all abilities have submitted works showing the magical beauty of the Highlands and
the pictures are on display for panto-goers to see. And enjoy while, hopefully, vowing
to return for more than just the panto in the year ahead.
(pic Dreamy Hollow, James Gordon)
Unsurprisingly there are plenty of other winter art exhibitions on this month, two that
we particularly recommend being at KILMORACK GALLERY (exhibiting artists include
James Newton Adams faux-naive paintings, Eoghan Bridges sculptures of horses and
riders, landscape by well-known artists Ruth Brownlee, Kirstie Cohen, Janette Kerr and
Allan MacDonald plus new work by Peter White; and INCHMORE GALLERY where many
of the works are miniature CD sized creations. Just right for that Christmas stocking.

So Here It Is
Merry Christmas, everybodys having fun. That elephant in the corner with the
black cloak and shiny helmet is STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS [1] (Vue &
EC from 17th Dec) which will doubtless occupy more screen-time this month than
all the other releases put together lets hope, as it appears, that it surpasses
the disappointing prequel trilogy films and re-invigorates the spirit of the original
trio of movies. Santa and Star Wars in the same month? SO exciting
With it being actual Christmas and all that, there is the inevitable slew of seasonal
releases there seems to have been a resurgence in the scmaltzy feel-good variety in
recent times but alas not so far to great effect. So what will this years bunch bring? Well,
A CHRISTMAS STAR (11th) seems like a sincere Nativity-esque family Brit-attempt, with
a feel-good cast including Pierce Brosnan, Suranne Jones, Liam Neeson, Kylie Minogue,
etc in a special-Xmas-powers-against-a-baddie-businessman kind of way. CHRISTMAS
WITH THE COOPERS (4th) presents a sassier family gathering-com with John Goodman,
Diane Keaton, Ed Helms, Olivia Wilde, Amanda Seyfried and Marisa Tomei yet we have
a suspicion that the whole is rather less than the sum of its parts, sadly. DADDYS HOME
(26th) is Will Ferrells loser against Mark Wahlbergs cool guy in a funny fight-to-the(not)-death over whos the best Dad. With Christmas accessories. Probably funny enough
but sho dont smell like a Christmas Classic. Like a value shop-bought mince pie while
youre waiting for one of mums. THE NIGHT BEFORE [2] (4th) is a teenplus-aimed
buddy-xmas movie as our trio des hombres live out one final pre-Xmas ritual, with added
Miley Cyrus. Seth Rogen is about to become a dad and takes drugs, Anthony Mackie is
too rich and famous for this small-time sh*t and Joseph Gordon Levitt should really know
better! KRAMPUS [3] (4th) appears to be a glossy US version of the wonderful clovenhooves-at-Christmas Rare Exports which is an Xmas highlight in our house. Trailer makes
it seem like a family-aimed horror-lite (though that could be misleading) with Toni Collette,
David Koetchner and plenty of other familiar faces. HECTOR [4] (11th), meanwhile, is
another Brit-effort this time smacking of class. Homeless Hector is Pete Mullen and
he is supported by a pleasingly uncommon and able cast Keith Allen, Gina McKee and
Stephen Tompkinson. Sentimental rather than slushy - might just be very good.
14
Elsewhere, there is A PEANUTS MOVIE (21st), all 3Dd up (with commendably 2D faces);
Amy Poehler and Tina Fey are literally comedy SISTERS; Ron Howards IN THE HEART
OF THE SEA tells of Herman Melvilles Moby Dick-inspiring adventure with Chris no shirt
Hemsworth, Ben Whishaw, Cillian Murphy, Tom Holland, Brendan Gleeson and a glut
of CGI; the source-disrespecting VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN (3rd) with messrs Radcliffe
and McAvoy; and the most wince-inspiring movie of the year, horror-western, BONE
TOMAHAWK (11th) with Kurt Russell, Patrick Wilson and Matthew Fox. NOT for the fainthearted. And finally, Peter Mullen again appears this time in SUNSET SONG [5] (EC 4th),
the beautifully-shot movie of the Grassic-Gibbon book with apparently an outstanding
turn from Agyness Deyn in the lead role.

Getting Festive.

The big family event of the month (apart from something called Christmas) is, of course, the
Eden Court Panto. This year its PETER PAN [1] and you can read more about it on P34.
Thats not the only show to get the young uns into the festive spirit though, the first being
LITTLE ELVES CHRISTMAS PARTY! At EDEN COURT on SUN 06 DEC. The exclamation mark
is a hint that therell be much whooping and hollering at this jam-packed hour of singing,
dancing, games and creative play for the under-5s. A ticket is required for both baby and
parent and make sure to wear red and green.
Another popular tradition is the WINTER WONDERLAND event taking place from 1113
DEC and providing an opportunity for children to meet Santa and his Reindeer in a beautifully
illuminated WHIN PARK. The Winter Wonderland show is hugely popular with the youngest
members of the Inverness community; and is one of the highlights of the Winter Festival for
toddlers. The event will see the return of the giant inflatable Walk on Water balls on the
Whin Park Boating Lake.
Stripping away the festive vibe and celebrating instead the fun to be had in another land
like ours where its perishing cold, WHEN THE WINTER WIND BLOWS at EDEN COURT
from 1622 DEC is another lovely interactive affair from Eden Court CREATIVE aimed at the
under-5s, in this case on a quest to help a little Eskimo girl in Alaska to keep out of the wind.
Perhaps the most important life lesson to be learned all month and a whole lot of fun too.
There are several shows each day so check out whatsonhighlands.com for more.

In 1970s South Boston, FBI Agent John Connolly persuades Irish mobster Jimmy Bulger to collaborate with
the FBI in order to eliminate their common enemy: the Italian mob. But this unholy alliance soon spirals out
of control, allowing Jimmy to evade law enforcement while consolidating his power and becoming one of the
most ruthless and dangerous gangsters in Boston history. Three-time Oscar nominee Johnny Depp is
almost unrecognisable in this smart crime drama from the director of Crazy Heart.

In 1970s South Boston, FBI Agent John Connolly persuades Irish mobster Jimmy Bulger to collaborate with
the FBI in order to eliminate their common enemy: the Italian mob. But this unholy alliance soon spirals out
of control, allowing Jimmy to evade law enforcement while consolidating his power and becoming one of the
most ruthless and dangerous gangsters in Boston history. Three-time Oscar nominee Johnny Depp is
almost unrecognisable in this smart crime drama from the director of Crazy Heart.

Faced with a choice between a harsh life of working the land with her farming father and the seductive
but distant world of books and learning, Chris Guthrie, bound by her intense love of the land, decides to
remain in her rural community. But the outbreak of the First World War is set to destroy the land and
community she holds so dear. Lewis Grassic Gibbons classic novel is brought to life by one of Britains
most treasured filmmakers.

Meeting Park Arena on 31 DEC from 8pm until 12.30am. Comedian Craig Hill [2]
will host the show introducing headliners Capercaillie who will be joined by two

WORLD AIDS DAY [3] is on TUE 01 DEC an opportunity for people to unite in the
fight against HIV, show their support for people living with HIV and to commemorate
people who have died. World AIDS Day was first held in 1988 and theres now
an annual community event in Inverness. This year its at EDEN COURT from
1.306.30pm with information stalls, talks on a range of HIV-related topics and
an opportunity for reflection. The event is free to attend and all are welcome.
Refreshments will be available. Contact Rachel on 01463 711585 or highland@

therell be over 40 stalls from local businesses. Money raised goes to local charities
and school funds.
Thatll no doubt get you in the mood for the latest Exclusively Highlands CHRISTMAS

Just Do It.
There are many things we feel like doing over the holiday period, usually revolving around
slumping in front of the telly and stuffing ourselves with food. For some however, nothing
screams Xmas more than the chance to get a bit of exercise. If its the gentler sort and
for a good cause then youll be making sure to take part in this years WILDHEARTS
SANTA RUN on SUN 13 DEC. Participants can run, jog or walk around the 5km route
(beginning at Inverness Leisure and taking in the riverside) with friends and family while
raising money for WildHearts, a Scottish charity that provides enterprise education in
local schools and helps people in the developing world work their way out of poverty
via microfinance. More details at tinyurl.com/santaruninverness and theres more
running at the traditional LOSSIEMOUTH TURKEY TROT on the same day (below).
Those who prefer to watch sport rather than participate are better served as ROSS
COUNTY fans (home to Dundee on 26 & Kilmarnock on 29 DEC) than their INVERNESS
CT equivalents (away to Aberdeen on 26 & Hamilton on 30 Dec), but both sets of
supporters will be hollering friendly banter at each other for the latest El Kessocko derby
in Inverness on 02 JAN.

One of the factors that have contributed to
the fluctuations in the market is continuing
economic uncertainty, notably the downturn in
the oil and gas industry.
But, there are strong positive signs for the
coming months. The number of properties
coming onto the market increased quite
considerably last month up 20% compared to
October 2014.
The HSPC website at www.hspc.co.uk
continues to attract a record number of visitors
and property enquiries last month were up
by 3% on October 2014. Taken together this
means that there are a greater number of
potential buyers visiting our website and a
wider choice of more than 800 properties on
offer.
