This month Broadwindsor’s Community Film Club are showing “Dream Horse” (PG) on Friday, 15th October, 7.30pm at the Comrades Hall.
Directed by Euros Lyn & starring Toni Collette & Damian Lewis, it tells the story of Jan Vokes, a cleaner and bartender, recruits her reluctant husband Brian and local accountant Howard Davies to help her bring together a syndicate of villagers to breed a foal – which they raise on an allotment and name Dream Alliance. On the racetrack, he proves himself to be more than a match for the multi-million-pound race horses he comes up against – a true working-class champion, taking on the establishment at their own game. But much more than this, Dream begins to alter the lives of everyone in the syndicate, not least Jan’s. He is everything to her: friend, confidant and an escape from a life of always putting other people’s needs first.
Dream Horse is a classic story of triumph against adversity and a tale of how a woman strives to make her dream a reality in a place where hope is thin on the ground.
They also feel with current covid levels in the West Country that wearing face masks whilst entering and moving around the hall would be appreciated by the majority. Thank you.
