We've topped up our beanbags, we're getting ready to host a great movie and soup night, and you're invited!

This Sunday 9 August at 4:30pm, at Northcliffe's Bean Bag cinema we are offering a Winter Warmer: free soup and sourdough followed by the film Three Colours: Red.

This is an activity of the Northcliffe Visitor Centre & Public Library in partnership with Northcliffe CRC and Southern Forest Arts.

Having skimmed through a retelling of the plot I would say this film defies summarization. This was film maker Krzysztof Kieślowski's last film - he died suddenly 2 years after, but he certainly didn't die unrecognized. The film has 100% on Rotten Tomatoes and according to Wikipedia is 'widely regarded as one of the best films of all time, as well as one of the greatest French-language films ever made.'

We're looking forward to the film, the soup, the sourdough and the great company. Come and join us - no bookings needed just turn up. Northcliffe Bean Bag Cinema is located in the same building as the Library, Visitor Centre and the CRC.

You're invited!

This coming Sunday, 2nd August, at 4:30pm, we have free soup and sourdough on offer, and then a screening of 'White', the second film in the Three Colours Trilogy. These are stand alone films so don't worry if you missed the first one.

No bookings are required. Just come along to the bean bag cinema in Northcliffe (located with the Library, Visitor Centre and CRC).

'White' stars Julie Delpy and Zbigniew Zamachowski. We haven't yet seen this film but here's a teaser from the online summary: "Karol, a Polish hairdresser living in Paris, is humiliated and divorced by his French wife, Dominique, due to his inability to consummate the marriage." From the summary this sounds like just the start of a wild wild ride for Karol and Dominique.

The following Sunday 9th August at 4:30pm will be the final screening for a while, the third in the Three Colour trilogy: Red.

Photos: 1. Julie Delpy plays Dominique, the newly wed bride. 2. Last week's crew enjoy Soup and sourdough before the screening of 'Blue.' We all loved that beautiful film!

RSVPs are useful but not essential to [email protected] or 0455438890. Just come along on a whim if you're feeling it - the more the merrier! (M rated) This movie has subtitles so don't forget your glasses.
