Here’s a little taster:

Film Night – “Churchill” – Wed. 7 February

5th February 20185th February 2018 Sarah Matthews Leave a comment

This outstanding 2017 drama starring Brian Cox as Churchill chronicles the British Prime Minister’s life in the run-up to the Normandy landings of June 1944 (code-named Operation Overlord) during World War II. Fearful of repeating the disastrous invasion of Gallipoli in 1915, Winston Churchill attempts to stop the planned invasion of Normandy in 1944. Only the support of Churchill’s wife, Clementine (brilliantly played by Miranda Richardson), can halt the prime minister’s physical and mental collapse.

Hundred Foot Journey A Comedy/Drama starring:
Helen Mirren, Om Puri, Manish Dayal, Charlotte Le Bon

When their Mumbai Restaurant is fire-bombed after a bitter election, the Kadam family leaves India for Europe. Driving down through France, fate takes a hand when their campervan brakes fail in the Pyrenees near the quaint village of Antonin-Noble-Val, where they find the perfect place to open a new restaurant.
Unfortunately, this is immediately across the road from the icy Madame Mallory’s Michelin-starred French Restaurant.
The two culinary cultures clash… Until…..

A Bear named Winnie The true story of the REAL bear who was the inspiration behind one of the most beloved characters in the history of children’s literature…

Canada, 1914. The start of World War I. En route to Vancouver to report to the Canadian Army Veterinary Corps, veterinary surgeon Lieutenant Harry Colebourn acquires an orphaned black bear cub whom he names ‘Winnie’ after his hometown of Winnipeg in Manitoba.
Harry and his regiment are posted to Salisbury Plain in England for training, and they manage to ‘smuggle’ Winnie in with them. When the boys are sent to fight in France, Winnie is placed in the care of London Zoo, where she soon becomes the star attraction.
When a man named A.A. Milne brings his young son Christopher Robin to visit the zoo, the child decides to change the name of his teddy bear from ‘Edward Bear’ to ‘Winnie the Pooh’.
The rest, as they say….

Film Night – “Their Finest” – Wed. 4 October

Film - Their Finest “You’d need a heart of stone and a funny bone of porridge not to enjoy this sweet-natured and eminently lovable British film – a 1940s adventure, with moments of brashness and poignancy. It’s all about the love that flowers in the ruins of blitz-hit London and in the dusty offices of the Ministry of Information’s film unit as various high-minded creative types use the magic of cinema to keep the nation’s pecker up.” The Guardian, April 2017.

Stars Bill Nighy and Gemma Arterton.
