“A worthy addition to Anderson’s canon – his deadpan wit meshes nicely with a generous view of human imperfections.”
The Daily Telegraph
The box office is now open for our third screening, Wes Anderson’s MOONRISE KINGDOM (12A).

The film marks something of a return to form for Anderson, whose previous career highlights include Rushmore (1998), The Royal Tenenbaums (nominated for an Oscar for best original screenplay in 2001), and the stop-motion animated version of Roald Dahl’s Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009).
Set in 1960s New England, the film follows a pair of young lovers heading into the wilds to escape their small town lives just as a hurricane rolls into the area. Their disappearance causes quite a storm back home…
The film boasts a stellar cast, including Bruce Willis, Frances McDormand, Bill Murray, Edward Norton and Tilda Swinton, and should make for a really entertaining evening. Come along for a bit of nostalgia, some great period music and a hearty dose of warm and humane humour!
