Good People

Our 8pm screening will be the fascinating documentary on the NZ modernist artist, Frances Hodgkins in Anything But A Still Life.
The Zone of Interest

(English subtitles), Rated M
Winner of this year's Oscar for Best International Film, The Zone of Interest is based on the 2014 novel by Martin Amis.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
