Dear Blogger
Message from James Bond, Oswestry Film Society, forwarded by Ingrid Knowles.
Help us keep cinema alive | | After our emotional final screening at Kinokulture, let's celebrate together our first film at our new venue: The Hermon Chapel Arts Centre (pic 1). OFS film night is now WEDNESDAYS, and we start this coming week with the classy Vantage Point (12A, pic 2). If a full-time cinema is to return to Oswestry, the company will want to see that the town CAN support a film venue. | | Films and new info - Vantage Point (12A) - Wed May 1, 7.30pm. Eight strangers witness an assassination attempt, but what did they actually see? Dennis Quaid (picture 2) has to work out what actually happened.
- Slumdog Millionaire (15) - Wed May 15, 7.30pm. Breathtaking action, comedy and romance, with stunning Indian scenery, this is the ultimate feel-good film. 15th anniversary showing. Fantastic on the big screen.
- Pride (15) - Wed June 5, 7.30pm. Truly uplifting British comedy-drama based on the extraordinary true story of London-based gay and lesbian activists supporting a struggling Welsh pit village in the Miners' Strike. We are showing this to mark the 40th anniversary of the strike, and to preview Oswestry's forthcoming first Pride festival.
- Tickets should be available on the door, but it would help if you book in advance via the OFS website as we find our feet at our new venue.
- The Hermon Chapel is just round the corner from Kinokulture, in (aptly enough) Chapel St close to the entrance to the Horsemarket car park.
- Seating is currently unallocated, but we're working on that.
- The Hermon is fully accessible, and has a licensed cafe-bar.
- We're jointly aiming to screen extra films, if we see the demand is there.
- PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD...
