Dear Blogger

Classic comedy for our Christmas screening Eddie Murphy in his first big role, Jamie Lee Curtis and Dan Aykroyd star in the good-feel Christmas caper TRADING PLACES, getting a big-screen revival from the Oswestry Film Society this coming Tuesday (Dec 19th, 7.30pm).
Let's get into the Xmas spirit with a good laugh, and festive nibbles on us. | |  | McGowan a big hit TV star Alistair McGowan (pic with OFS's James Bond) wowed us with his live appearance last week.
He charmed us with insights into his Alfred Hitchcock documentary that we showed, his TV and radio career stories, plus of course some of the impressions he's so famous for.
And he was happy to chat with so many audience members informally after the event.
He's now involved in the arts scene in Ludlow (Ludlow Festival, music recitals etc) and the OFS will support him in return.
(Also, take a look at www.ludlowassemblyrooms.co.uk ) |  | And in the New Year... We start 2024 with an uplifting bang with The Greatest Showman - a spectacular production not to be missed on the big screen (Jan 16).
In February, the black comedy American Hustle (Feb 6), and the charming Hope And Glory (Feb 20).
Keep an eye on the Oswestry Film Society website for more details, tickets and future screenings as they're scheduled.
2023's seen Alistair McGowan, international film director Matt Bauer, and Daniel Craig's brother all appearing live at OFS showings. Who'll be with us next year?
Do support our host venue, the Kinokulture cinema - see their own separate Kinokulture website - for the wide variety of films they put on through the week. Do spread the word for Kinokulture AND the Oswestry Film Society.
PS: the OFS normally show films on the 1st & 3rd Tuesdays of the month, but there'll be no screening on Jan 2. | | | | |
