Double Indemnity Talk
Please note: this is an old event from March 2006
Double Indemnity's creation depended on: James M. Cain, the author whose book was adapted; the legendary crime novelist, Raymond Chandler, who scripted the film, and the genius of the director, Billy Wilder. Their influence on crime fiction will be explored in an illustrated talk by Adrian Wootton, a writer, broadcaster and leading authority on the crime genre.
Fee: £2.00 full/ £3.00 concessions

Filmic
A festival of film and music
We're mad about music and film. So much so we've created a new festival dedicated to this most enduring of relationships, and this month there's a focus on the music of the maestro Ennio Morricone.
Carnage
Showing Now
Roman Polanski's latest is a hysterically funny descent into some very, very enjoyable bad behaviour as two sets of parents try (and fail) to talk through an incident amicably.
