What we’re about
We meet regularly to watch and discuss films.
We usually see a movie together at a cinema in the Nottingham area (usually the Broadway Cinema) and then discuss it over a drink and a meal (usually in the Broadway Cafe).
We enjoy a wide range of genres: great classics, international and art films, and the latest major releases.
CODE OF CONDUCT: When we discuss a film, it is important to show respect to other people's opinions. We go around expressing each member's impressions and comments on the movie: we must let every person speak without interrupting. Disagreements are welcome, but must always be polite.

Summary:
Celebrated filmmaker Kelly Reichardt (First Cow, Showing Up) directs an unforgettable Josh O'Connor in THE MASTERMIND, her latest Cannes triumph. In a sedate Massachusetts suburb circa 1970, unemployed family man and amateur art thief J.B Mooney sets out on his first heist. With the museum cased and accomplices recruited, he has an airtight plan. Or so he thinks. A brilliant look at the folly of man, THE MASTERMIND also features Alana Haim, Gaby Hoffmann, John Magaro, Hope Davis and Bill Camp. Rich in textured detail, this sly depiction of an era subverts long-held illusions and confronts disillusionment.3 attendees
NT Live - Mrs Warren's Profession @ Bonington Theatre, Arnold
Bonington Theatre, Arnold Leisure Centre, High Street, Arnold, NG5 7EE, Nottingham, GBCinema.... but also a Play, thanks to the magic of National Theatre Live...
"Vivie Warren is a woman ahead of her time. Her mother, however, is a product of that old patriarchal order. Exploiting it has earned Mrs. Warren a fortune – but at what cost? Bernard Shaw’s incendiary moral classic explores the clash between morality and independence, traditions and progress.
Five-time Olivier Award winner Imelda Staunton (The Crown) joins forces with her real-life daughter Bessie Carter (Bridgerton) for the very first time, playing mother and daughter in this new production, filmed live from the West End."Runtime 117 minutes (no interval)
Join me to enjoy some top London theatre beamed straight to our local screen by NT Live. The trademark wit and social insight of George Bernard Shaw is all there in this marvellous play; I saw a 2002 production in London with Brenda Blethyn in the lead.
Buy your own Ticket Here £12.50 I have seat F9
Note due to 7.00 start and no Interval, our best chance for socialising will be beforehand, so meet at 6.30 in the bar for chats/drinks, before we take our seats. Look out for Kate's red leather bag to find us.
Ample free parking in Arnold Leisure Centre car park.
