The FALL GUY and a celebration of Maggie Smith
It was lovely to see so many of you for our first film back after the summer break. We showed the award-winning Italian film, La Chimera an ethereal, yet gritty tale of a bizarre gang of grave-robbers and the lovelorn Englishman in their midst, with fabulous performances from Josh O’Connor and Isabella Rossellini.
And next for something completely different we are showing The Fall Guy on the 6th November, an action-comedy described as fast, sexy, hilarious and endlessly entertaining. Starring Ryan Gosling, Emily Blunt and a host of Hollywood names this could be the perfect antidote to a drizzly November evening. The Fall Guy, based on the 80s TV series, is an utterly charming, unpretentious rebuttal to the encroachment of digital effects in life and film. It’s a celebration of blockbuster movies and specifically the underappreciated work of stunt doubles. It’s also a consistently good time, two hours of zingers with impeccable timing, two bona fide movie stars with palpable chemistry, several enjoyably meta send-ups of the business and, of course, plenty of crazy stunts a fizzy, funny, convincingly romantic delight.

We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday 6th November, and (a date for your diary) do join us on the 10th December for a celebration of Maggie Smith’s film to be announced.
