Relaxed Screening: The Time Of Their Lives
In Relaxed Film screenings we understand that people may want to talk during the film, walk around or leave the cinema - the lights are left on low in the cinema to make that easier for you. Come early and enjoy a free hot drink and biscuits before the film!
Everyone is welcome to these screenings, but the cinema environment is subtly altered to be friendly for people living with Autism and Dementia and their family, friends and carers.
Priscilla (Pauline Collins) is living a cheerless existence caring for her belligerent and miserable husband Frank. She has forgotten what it feels like to be happy. That is until she meets Helen (Joan Collins.) who has dedicated her life to herself and has only ever desired to be the famous Hollywood actress she once was. Now penniless and in the UK for a hip operation on the NHS she has been recovering in a retirement home, all the while planning her comeback. Pooling their limited resources, the women hit the road together by ferry, car, and foot and on this unforgettable journey, they find true friendship in one another – and have the time of their lives.
Dir. Roger Goldby, UK, 2016
Cast. Joan Collins, Pauline Collins, Franco Nero.
