COMRIE CINEMA CLUB - Third Season

After another successful season the Cinema Club has prepared a new programme which we hope will appeal to all ages, and would like to offer a season's membership for 2009/10. We have chosen a selection based on consultation with members.

By becoming a member of Comrie Cinema Club, you will be entitled to attend 8 films for £32.00. (Ticket prices for non-members will be £4.50 for adults and £2.50 for children under 16.) In addition, you will be ensuring the future of the Cinema Club in Comrie.

A run of 3 or 4 children's matinees will be shown between Nov - Feb. on the Saturday afternoon of the evening showing. These will be advertised & not included in the membership price.

Programme of screenings 2009/10

Please note that in the event of unavailability of any of the following films a suitable replacement will be screened.

Sat 12th September
Stone of Destiny (PG)
In 1950, Glasgow student Ian Hamilton had a brain wave - go to London, break into Westminster Abbey and take the Stone of Destiny back to Scotland. The mission caught the public imagination back home and turned Hamilton and his accomplices into folk heroes.

Sun 11th October
North Face (12A)
This film is being shown as part of the Crieff & Starthearn Drovers Tryst Nineteen-thirty-six, and as Nazi propaganda urges the nation's youth to mount a challenge on the unclimbed north face of the Eiger, two young Germans begin a daring ascent in this adventure film based on a true story

Sat 7th November
Inside I'm Dancing (15)
James McAvoy displays dark charm as frustrated rebel Rory O'Shea, confined to a wheelchair through muscular dystrophy and unable to move much more than his mouth, which he uses to wind up the staff at the Carrigmore Residential Home For The Disabled. His arrival at the home is a breath of fresh air for long-term resident Michael (Robertson), also wheelchair-bound, whose cerebral palsy has rendered his speech almost impossible to understand. To everyone, that is, except Rory. Finally, Michael has a friend he can talk to - and who can bust him out of the home and into the big wide world where beer and women await. But their new flat share brings its own challenges.

Sat 12th December
The Reader (15)
THE READER opens in post-WWII Germany when teenager Michael Berg becomes ill and is helped home by Hanna, a stranger twice his age. Michael recovers from scarlet fever and seeks out Hanna to thank her. THE READER is a story about truth and reconciliation, about how one generation comes to terms with the crimes of another.

Sat 16th January
Hallem Foe (18)
The wonderful thing about Hallam Foe is its combination of moods, notably of foreboding and breezy comedy.The result is an original and entertaining rites-of-passage tale that keeps us on our toes throughout.

Sat 20th February
The Duchess (12A)
Kiera Knightly stars as Georgina, Duchess of Devonshire in this sumptuous costume drama. Georgina is in a loveless marriage, sharing her husband with his mistress - but when she falls in love with another man, the scandal threatens to tear them apart.

Sat 27th March
Slumdog Millionaire (15)
A wildly energetic, Dickensian drama about the desultory life and times of an Indian boy whose bleak, formative experiences lead to an appearance on his country's version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"

Sat April 24th
AGM & Ray (15)
The life of blind soul music legend Ray Charles, starring Jamie Foxx - Foxx appears to capture the man's soul. Add that to the phenomenal music that he produced - mostly given rousing treatment by director Hackford - and you have a truly potent combination.

We welcome any ideas and further feedback.

All screenings will be in the WRI Hall starting @ 7.30pm (doors open 7pm) unless stated otherwise.
