☀️THE HIDEOUT: LATE SUMMER SOCIAL🥂

Details

🎬 WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FILM THIS YEAR?
Summer’s almost over, so let’s wrap it up with great conversation, laughter, and, of course, movies! Share your favourite film of the year with stunning views over the Thames. At the London Embankment, it is as hot as the sun, and the cinema sparkles with seasons of bold adventures, hidden treasures, and stories that lift the heart and fire the imagination.

Hello Again Everyone 👋 I am so happy to be back, because London rocks and you guys rock. And we’re cruising through the tail end of summer, can you believe that? The days are still warm, the evenings still golden, and the sunsets still gleaming through the trees. So, let’s talk movies, guys, because this year has been full of surprises. There were films I expected to love but didn’t, and others that caught me completely off guard in the best way. For me, two films stood out: Sinners, for its daring storytelling, and The Monkey, which I agree, is very marmite, and it's not for everyone. But now it’s your turn, what’s been your favourite movie so far this year? Whether it was a summer blockbuster, a quiet indie gem, or a quirky surprise, we should get together and talk about it.

If this is your first time, we’re a super chilled and friendly crowd of Movie Fans, Creators, and Filmmakers who love movies and meeting up to talk about them. For this late summer gathering, we’ll be meeting with Movie Roadhouse at the BFI Riverfront: Balcony Bar (upstairs) which overlooks Waterloo Bridge and the River Thames. The bar offers a great range of dishes and drinks, and we can relax inside or out on the balcony (and it's fully air-conditioned). It’s the perfect spot for any film buff or filmmaker, right in the heart of the British Film Institute.

So let’s wrap up the summer in cinematic style — with conversation, laughs, and maybe a surprise recommendation or two. Until then… may the force be with you!
