So! What’s showing next month?

On Sunday, 7th November at 3.30pm they are showing their first film in a foreighn language – this time in Swedish with English subtitles: A Man Called Ove.

Directed by Hannes Holm, starring Rolf Lassgard, Bahar Pars, Filip Berg & Ida Engvoll

A Man Called Ove tells the story of an ageing retiree with strict principles and a short fuse, Ove (Rolf Lassgard) is the quintessential angry old man next door.  Having entirely given up on life, his days are spent in a constant monotony of enforcing housing association rules and visiting his wife Sonja’s gravesite.

But when a boisterous young family moves into the neighbourhood, immediately incurring his wrath, things take an unexpected turn.  Pregnant Parvaneh (Bahar Pars) and her lively children are the complete antithesis of what ill-tempered Ove thinks he needs – and yet, from this inauspicious beginning an unlikely friendship blooms and Ove’s past happiness and heartbreak come to light.

A Man Called Ove is a 2012 novel by Fredrik Backman, a Swedish columnist, blogger and writer. It was published in English in 2013. As a film, it was nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film and Best Makeup and Hairstyling categories at the 89th Academy Awards in 2017.

On Friday 19th November at 7.30pm – the movie will be The Father (12)

Directed by Florian Zeller. Starring Anthony Hopkins & Olivia Coleman.

In an Academy Award and BAFTA winning performance, Anthony Hopkins plays the eponymous role of a mischievous and highly independent man who, as he ages, refuses all assistance from his daughter Anne (Olivia Colman).  Yet, such help has become essential following Anne’s decision to move to Paris with her partner.  As Anne’s father tries to make sense of his changing circumstances, he begins to doubt his loved ones, his own mind and even the fabric of his reality.

Broadwindsor Film Club – Friday, 15th October, 7.30pm

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.
