We can't resist screening it every year!
Jimmy Stewart is the owner of a money lending company that for years has been helping people in his town live their dreams.
But when one Christmas he has one calamity after another, he decides to take his own life, believing everyone would be better off if he had never lived… A heavenly messenger (Henry Travers) arrives to show him a vision: what the world would have been like if George had never been born.
With warm mulled non-alcoholic wine on sale and a shot of rum added for those who wish, this will be a night to warm your heart.
A message from our cinema director, Rebecca Marshall:
As we have been unable to operate at our previous full capacity since reopening, and with safety measures unlikely to be able to relax anytime this year, we are facing mounting building rental costs, film licensing costs and other overheads that were previously viable when we were open at full capacity.
Unless all our current season of films sell out, the cinema will be unable to continue into 2021 and will likely close.
With this in mind I make this plea to all to help sustain this much-loved community asset:
