Good People
PLEASE NOTE: Our upcoming screening at Forum North will be on TUESDAY not Thursday as the venue is not available then.

Our 8pm screening will be the fascinating documentary giving insight into the life and times of Noel Coward - Mad about the Boy.
WICKED LITTLE LETTERS
UK, Comedy/Drama, 102 mins
Rated M, strong language and nudity
Cast: Olivia Coleman, Jessie Buckley, Timothy Spall.
A quiet, English seaside town bears witness to a farcical and occasionally sinister scandal in this riotous mystery comedy.
Based on a true story from the 1920s, it tells of two neighbours: deeply conservative Edith and rowdy Irish migrant, Rose. When Edith and her neighbours begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanities, it is the foul-mouthed Rose who is arrested and charged with the crime.
The letters prompt a national uproar, and a trial ensues. However, as the town’s only police officer, Gladys begins to investigate, she suspects something is amiss, and Rose may not be the culprit. But Gladys needs Edith's help to find proof.
Showing at Forum North, 7 Rust Ave Whangarei on TUESDAY (NOT Thursday) 18th June at 6pm and THURSDAY 4th July at 8pm

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
36.6% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
62.6% No, I enjoy it

Remembering the 51 Trees planted at Whangarei Falls, Tikipunga
1 July 2019
School children, parents and teachers, local maori Hapu members and Kuia & Kaumatua were among more than 100 people who together planted 51 trees in Whangārei to honour the victims of the Christchurch mosque shootings.
The idea for the planting of native trees to remember those who lost their lives in the March attacks came from a student.
