Dear Friends:
Welcome to a season of films to be shown in the village hall, generally on the last Sunday of each month
(please check) from September until May.
Your heartwarming responses have meant so much to us. Because of the amazing increase in numbers, we're delighted to inform you that your membership fee of £10 is now to be on a biennial basis, entitling you to two year's free viewing with the ability to bring the occasional relative or friend along at no additional cost.
We are and always will be a not-for-profit organisation with any surplus funds being fed back to the hall.

BAGDAD CAFÉ (12 109 mins)
German comedy drama co-written and directed by Percy Adlon. Bavarian tourist Jasmin (Marianne Sagebrecht) is dumped by her husband in the Arizona Desert and arrives, on foot and overdressed, at a truck-stop called the Bagdad Café. There she finds friendship with the initially irritable owner Brenda (CCH Pounder) and something like romance with the resident artist Rudi (Jack Palance).
Winner of the 1989 Cesar Award for best foreign film.
