HAMNET (12 125 mins)
Based on the New York Times best-selling novel, Academy Award-winning director Chloé Zhao (Nomadland) directs a powerful story of love and loss. William Shakespeare (Paul Mescal) falls for the free-spirited Agnes (Jessie Buckley). Their whirlwind romance leads to marriage and three children, but as Will's theatrical ambitions draw him to London, Agnes remains behind to manage the household. When tragedy strikes, their bond is deeply tested - but through grief and resilience, their journey inspires the creation of Shakespeare's timeless masterpiece, Hamlet.
The film also stars Emily Watson, Joe Alwyn and produced by Steven Spielberg and Sam Mendes.
A delicious supper of Fish Pie (+ a vegetarian option) prepared, cooked and served in the hall by the good folk of the Kings Arms is available for just £11.00 + £2.00 for Ice Creams
