Whiplash - preview screening

I always persuade myself not to be won over by a trailer, but I had to look this up after being wowed by its ferocity and tension. Telegraph review 'genius', IMDB 8.7, so the film lives up to the trailer? Let's find out.

Driven almost to nervous and physical breakdown by his bullying teacher Fletcher (J. K. Simmons), Andrew (Miles Teller) sacrifices everything, including his budding relationship with fellow student Nicole (Melissa Benoist), for his chance of greatness, leading to a shattering climax.

Movie starts at 8pm and this is a preview screening, before UK release.

Come join us from 7pm in the cinema bar (free wifi, sofas, comfy chairs, superb views of Greenwich) for a drink or two. I'll be wearing a dark beige hat.
