Babes in Arms screening - ON CHESIL BEACH (15) - 2017 UK 110 min

Director: Dominic Cooke • Starring: Saoirse Ronan, Billy Howle, Anne-Marie Duff and Emily Watson.

First time director Cooke does true justice to Ian McEwan’s adaptation of his own novella, telling the story of a young couple’s first evening as a married couple, and the disastrous consequences of their inability to form a true bond.Ronan and Howle portray the lovers with subtlety and understatement, backed up by a stellar cast in supporting roles. Beautifully filmed in Oxford, London and on the stark landscape of the beach itself, this is a subtle meditation on confused expectations and lost opportunities.

Please note that this is a Babes in Arms Screening- Bringing a baby is not essential but we cannot ensure silence in the auditorium, the lights will not be fully dimmed, sound will be at a lower level and people may need to move around the auditorium. 

With one showing at 11am ONLY.
