Film club does Disaster Film!

November's film club will take place on Tuesday 17th November, and this month we are going to see the new Disaster Film, 2012!

It's not your typical film club choice but we thought we'd go for a blockbuster and explore the Disaster Movie genre.

It gets 4 stars in Time Out, who say ...."catch it on the biggest, noisiest screen available and approach it on its own terms, and it’ll knock your socks off."

So that's what we'll do!

Where better to enjoy a massive blockbuster than in the heart of Leicester Square? So we'll be seeing 2012 in the Vue Cinema, Leicester Square.

Tickets are £11.90 which we know is a bit steep but we thought if we're going to do big Hollywood Blockbuster, we should do it properly. We will aim to keep costs down in future - although we're not able to meet on Orange Wednesdays due to other commitments.

The film starts at 7.30pm. We shall meet in the Lobby at 7.15pm.

A bit of History

The idea for film club came about when Chris held a Film Festival at the BFI Southbank. He went to see three different films over three nights. Sadly the event was not well attended, but it did spark up an interest from Georgina who suggested making a regular event of film going - with a discussion in the pub afterwards.

So far we have seen

Slumdog Millionaire

Vicky, Christina, Barcelona.

A Hitchcock Double Bill at the Rio in Dalston (on one of the sunniest days in the year)

Broken Embraces
