*Please note, this film is certificated 18 and is not suitable for anyone under that age!*We're welcoming in the New Year with Oscars 2024 Frankenstein-esque favourite Poor Things, starring the fabulous Emma Stone and directed by Yorgos Lanthimos.
From The Guardian 5 star review:
"To describe Poor Things, which is adapted by Tony McNamara (The Favourite) from the 1992 novel by Alasdair Gray, as creatively uninhibited hardly does justice to the wild, wild ride that this explosively inventive picture takes us on. Driven by a courageous and physically committed performance from Stone, the film follows her journey as Bella Baxter, at the start of the picture a barely verbal blank slate, who embarks on an autodidact voyage of discovery to become the ultimate self-made woman...
Like much in Poor Things, the period is impossible to pin down exactly. The story of Bella unfolds in a parallel past, a gothic, steampunk-infused Victoriana, a world that is distorted (literally – Lanthimos’s enthusiastic use of fisheye lenses warps the contents of the frame) by the patriarchal power disparities in society..."
Doors open at 7pm for a 7:30pm start. Tickets are £6 on the door or £40 for membership for a season. Tea and coffee served after the film.
