 Last month's Icelandic offering was well received with a star box rating of 4.4, next Thursday (the 21st) we hope to match or better it.


This time we're going back to the 1966 Swedish classic "Persona", written and directed by Ingmar  Bergman and starring Liv Ullmann, Persona is considered one of the masterpieces of cinema, and is listed in the 1001 films to see you before you die.


Covid restrictions continue to ease but some still remain. If you feel unwell, please stay home, otherwise we'll see you on the 21st.


Doors open at 6:30, screening at 7:00.

"PIG" USA (Drama 2021)

4.1 ****

Nicolas Cage at his best.  A simple story, a superb character study about a man and his best friend and worker. 

"Rosa's Wedding (Spain 2020)

4.2 ****+

A feel good film par excellence according to our members.  We were on Rosa's side as she broke her shackles, undid family ties and tied the knot to herself! 

"Persona" Sweden 1966

2.4 **+

A trip back to 1966, the year we moved from PSD to Decimal currency.  Ingmar Bergman's psychological drama gave members possibly PST!  Many patrons would have upgraded their ratings after working it over in their mind. A cinema classic.

Woman at War" (Iceland)

4.4 ****+


Our 70 strong members warmed to Halla, a single woman, friendly neighbour, concerned citizen and crusader in this quirky, satirical and complicated ecomelodrama that thoroughly entertained our appreciative audience.

 Next week, Thursday 24th March we will be joining Halla "the Woman of the Mountain", choir teacher and secret activist as she tackles the threats to Iceland's environment while dodging the law.

Her campaign is on the brink of success when an unexpected development leads her down another life path.

The doors will be open at 6:30, drinks will be available from that time and the screening will start at 7:00.

Covid restrictions seem to be easing, if these mean a significant change to how we operate we will let you know.

Looking forward to seeing you all on the 24th of March. As always if you are feeling unwell please stay at home and we will see you next month.
