Winner
of an Oscar, a BAFTA and three Golden Globes
Following
many requests for a classic movie, we are delighted to be showing
Some Like It Hot as a special screening
for one night only in April. This will be in addition to our
regular season, and tickets (£6) will be available from
Hamiltons Newsagents and at the door on the evening.
Some
Like It Hot is being shown in The Corn
Exchange on Saturday 30th April
2016 at 7.30pm.
Some
Like It Hot is a 1959 American comedy film set in 1929,
directed by Billy Wilder, starring Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis
and Jack Lemmon. The supporting cast includes George Raft, Pat
O'Brien, Joe E. Brown, Joan Shawlee and Nehemiah Persoff.
Two
struggling musicians witness the St. Valentine's Day Massacre
and are now on the run from the Mob. In an attempt to hide from
their pursuers, Jerry and Joe cross-dress into an all female
band. In addition to hiding, each has his own problems - one
falls for another band member but can't tell her his gender,
and the other has a rich suitor who will not take "No"
for an answer.
Some
Like It Hot is one of the best-loved and enduring comedy
films of all time. For many, this is the greatest comedy ever
made in Hollywood. Over 55 years later, it is still very funny
and not the least bit dated. It is one of the true classics
in the history of film.
All
the proceeds from the film will go to Macmillan Cancer Support.
As this is a special screening, the ticket price is not included
as part of the membership season ticket.
Admission
is £6, with tickets available from Hamiltons Newsagents
and at the door on the evening, subject to availabilty.
