Blue Moon (15)

Thursday 11 Dec 20252:00pm (HoH Subtitled Screening)4:30pm

The lyricist Lorenz Hart’s collaborations with composer Richard Rodgers are the stuff of legend. Yet, in 1943, only months before he died from pneumonia, Hart’s partnership with Rodgers was on the rocks. Rodgers had first paired up with Oscar Hammerstein II, and their musical Oklahoma! had reinvigorated and reinvented narrative musical theatre.


Richard Linklater’s luminous, erudite drama imagines a loquacious Hart (an astonishing tour de force by Ethan Hawke) on the night of Oklahoma!’s premiere, holed up at Sardi’s and moving through various stages of grief and acceptance when faced with Broadway’s new world order. Also featuring stellar supporting work from Andrew Scott, Margaret Qualley and Bobby Cannavale, Blue Moon is a surprising yet entirely fitting addition to the Linklater canon: a film about the inevitable passage of time and the feeling of being left behind by those stuck in its folds.

A new documentary by Suffolk-based filmmaker Tim Curtis delves into one of Britain's most enduring Second World War mysteries.

Backed by decades of research from James Hayward and Ron Clayton, the film examines rumours of a foiled German invasion attempt, burning seas, and bodies on the beach along the wartime Suffolk coast.


The film also features former East Anglian Daily Times reporter Henry Creagh, who recounts a 1992 call from a source claiming to have seen secret MOD files describing a deadly friendly fire incident. This gripping documentary takes viewers deep into Suffolk's wartime history, and attempts to unravel a mystery that refuses to fade.


Following the screenings there will be an on stage discussion with director Tim Curtis, former East Anglian Daily Times Reporter Henry Creagh and our manager, Neil.
