British film night in Wedding

Hi all,

I am planning to put on a British Film Night at my local bar in Wedding. They have a room in the back that can seat approx. 20 people with an overhead projector which makes a nice cinema room.

I still need to confirm a date. Will most likely be a Tuesday in April.

As for films, it will be a classic British film. Haven't decided what yet but have a shortlist

If you're interested post on this thread. Thanks

sounds interesting and I'd like to come - depends on the final date though.

Yes, sounds interesting too - anychance of showing a shortlist?

Sounds interesting - would love to see the shortlist tho! Hope I can make it, April is threatening to be a busy month.

Seems to me that we are all waiting for the short list.

Count me in as another "interested". Looking forward to hearing that elusive shortlist ;-)

I'd be interested. Where's your bar? I live in wedding, but don't go to many of the bars around here esp since caffee schmidt is gone.

I 'm interested too, and like everyone else would like to have a look at the shortlist.

Ditto

Hi grey bot, you stilll have the film night planned? It would be good to get it off the grounnd! (not literally!)

he hasnt logged in since march 27th ...

yeah, I'd be interested too. There are many great ones.

Ive PM'd the OP and asked him to get back to us.

fo' really. i've thought of going to the st.george's film night, but i hear it's always pretty crowded. once i actually went but was a couple minute late and couldn't get in. a regular alternative is in order.

Great! so maybe one of us can get it off the ground then!

any horrors or Splatters lined up?

Sorry for the delay. Been busy with work and stuff. Still need to go to the bar and confirm a date, which should happen this weekend!

As for a shortlist, here are some of my favourite british films:

Dead man's shoes
A room for romeo brass
Get Carter
Brassed off
The long good friday
The Firm
Great Expectations

Sounds like a good line up. I'm in if the date is good

Good morning greybot and everyone,
please count me in as well, looking forward to that moving night!

(if a mod could kindly edit the thread title with date and time that would be great)

What will you be showing? and please count in me (+1)

I'd be very interested, too! Maybe I'm gonna bring 1 or 2 people with me.. dont know yet.

Damn, I'm in England for a week! Will there be another one?

Will decide on a film by the end of the week and post it here. As for whether there will be another one it depends on how successful the first night is really It's already taking place on their regular Kino abend as they aren't open every night of the week.

The film:

Kes (1969)

Directed by Ken Loach

Cast: David Bradley, Lynne Perrie, Colin Welland, Freddie Fletcher, Brian Glover

Ken Loach's engagingly unsentimental story of a working-class boy who manages to find a rare release from his drab life training and caring for a kestrel. Much-loved and well remembered, the film is regarded as a classic of its time, with Loach commenting poignantly on the lack of opportunities for the working classes. It is based on Barry Hines's novel A Kestrel for a Knave, and features cinematography by Chris Menges. Though the subject matter is serious, as usual with Loach there is plenty of room for humour and still to be cherished is Brian Glover's exuberant performance as the warped sports teacher. The film was shot on location in and around Barnsley.]

OK This is tomorrow. Changed my mind on the film for Get Carter as was in my original short-list.

Sorry greybot, I'm not going to be able to make it anymore, hope it goes well and keep us informed if you host any more.

Thanks again to all those who came along last night. Sorry if I didn't get round to saying hello to you all but I didn't expect such a turn out !

Great fun, greybot! Let's do it again!
