Civil War

Civil War (15)

Saturday 11 May 20242:30pm7:45pm
Monday 13 May 20245:00pm

Alex Garland anticipates a civil war in the United States. In the midst of a North American presidential election year that could see Donald Trump re-elected, and in a climate of high tension and social mistrust in Uncle Sam's country - the assault on the Capitol is not so far off - the British director unveils a future that may be closer than it seems.


To tell the story of this fractured America, Civil War follows three Reuters photo-reporters who bear witness to the situation through their photographs. In a veritable throwback to the American Civil War, Texas and California, allied with Florida, the dissident army of the West, clash with the other government-backed, army-held states. From New York, the three journalists(Kirsten Dunst, Wagner Moura and Stephen Henderson) attempt to reach the front line in Charlottesville at all costs, 1300km from their starting point, then on to Washington DC, where the President is holed up in the White House.


WARNING: This film CIVIL WAR contains a sequence of flashing lights which might affect customers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy’


 

Perfect Days

Perfect Days (PG)

Saturday 11 May 20245:00pm
Monday 13 May 20242:00pm

Wim Wenders’ beguiling Tokyo-set drama is a poignant, warm-hearted portrait of a Tokyo toilet cleaner, played by Cannes Best Actor prize-winner Koji Yakusho.


Hirayama (a captivating performance by Yakusho) lives a life of quiet routine. He goes to work, eats in the same cafe every day and buys second-hand books at the weekend. Wenders’ empathetic portrait gradually draws us into this world, one in which the tiniest details add to the richness of a simple and decent life. With a soundtrack featuring Lou Reed and Patti Smith, this is a gorgeous hymn to humanity and to finding meaning in the everyday.

NTL: Vanya

NTL: Vanya (15)

Sunday 12 May 20243:00pm

Andrew Scott brings to life multiple characters in Simon Stephen’s radical new version of Anton Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya.


Comedic and tragic, Chekhov’s examination of our shared humanity - our hopes, dreams, regrets - is thrust into sharp focus in VANYA.


This production explores the kaleidoscope of human emotions, harnessing the power of the intimate bond between actor and audience to delve deeper into the human psyche.

Battle of Britain & Talk

Battle of Britain & Talk (U)

Sunday 12 May 20246:00pm

We are delighted to be collaborating with Bawdsey Radar Trust for this special screening of the 1969 film THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN starring Michael Caine, Laurence Olivier, Trevor Howard, Susannah York, Christopher Plummer and Harry Andrews.


Most of you will know the story of the Battle of Britain when the gallant ‘few’ defended our shores in their Spitfires and Hurricanes. What is far less well known is that experimental developments carried out in Suffolk in the years leading up to the outbreak of war enabled this success. Using radio waves to detect the presence of aircraft was first demonstrated in 1935. As a result, a team of scientists and engineers were sent initially to Orfordness and then to Bawdsey Manor. This work, carried out in haste and in great secrecy, turned the idea into a chain of coastal radar stations ready and able to defend the country.


Before the showing of the film Graham Murchie, from Bawdsey Radar Trust, will describe the development of radar, the contribution of the team at Bawdsey Manor and explain how the system was used to direct the British fighters to intercept the incoming attacks.


A percentage of the ticket sales will go to the amazing work being done by the Bawdsey Radar Trust.

Copa '71

Copa '71 (PG)

Monday 13 May 20247:30pm

It is August 1971. Football teams from England, Argentina, Mexico, France, Denmark and Italy are gathering at Mexico City’s sun-drenched Azteca Stadium. The scale of the tournament is monumental: lavish sponsorship, extensive TV coverage, merchandise on every street corner and crowds of over 100,000 hollering fans turn this historic stadium into ‘a cauldron of noise and heat’ match after match. A fawning media treat the players like rock stars. The atmosphere is reminiscent of the greatest moments in international footballing history.


But this is a tournament unlike anything that’s happened before. The players on the pitch are all women. And it’s likely you’ve never even heard of it. This is Copa 71, the unofficial Women’s World Cup. Dismissed by both FIFA and domestic football associations around the world, this event has been entirely written out of history. Until now.
