We would like to take the opportunity to thank all of our wonderful Members who have supported us during an extremely challenging year for independent cinema. We couldn’t have done it without you.
We want to welcome you back to the cinema in style. We are pleased to invite all of our Members to join us for an exclusive screening of triple Oscar winning film Nomadland and a complimentary drink. Simply log in using your Member’s account to book your free tickets online, or contact our Box Office. If your Membership has lapsed this year, we completely understand. However if you are thinking of renewing, you will become eligible to claim your free tickets online or at the Box Office as soon as you renew.
1 free ticket for a Supporter or Friend Single Membership, 2 free tickets for a Friend Double Membership. Limited capacity, advance booking essential. Please note that there is a limit of 2 tickets maximum per online booking, in order to allow as many of our Members to attend as possible.
As Frances McDormand said when winning her Best Actress Oscar, see this beautiful, lyrical film on the big screen! Reeling from the early death of her beloved husband and the loss of their home, Fern lives in a kitted-out van, travelling from town to town and picking up short-term seasonal work where she can get it. It’s a premise built on the experiences of America’s modern-day nomads. The film is populated with intimate and compassionate studies of real people playing versions of themselves, such as Fern’s compatriots on the road, Linda, Swankie and Bob, as well as a precious community that has grown out of the ruins of the country’s brutal service economy. Alongside them, McDormand delivers a quietly breathtaking performance – an angular, sympathetic portrait of an older woman choosing a life of relative freedom, whatever the pains and challenges that entails. And Zhao’s regular collaborator, cinematographer Joshua James Richards, exquisitely captures the expansive open landscapes of the Western United States. If you see one film this month, make it this one.
