Whangarei Film Society - screenings for Thursday October 3rd

Geoff from Central Whangarei

Good People

On Thursday the 3rd October at 6pm, WFS will be screening the French comedy, The Crime is Mine.

Our 8pm screening is the inspiring story of devotion and love with the French/Moroccan film, The Blue Caftan.

THE CRIME IS MINE
France, (English subtitles) 2023, Crime/Comedy, 102 mins, Rated PG
Cast: Nadia Tereszkiewicz, Isabelle Huppert, Dany Boon, Fabrice Luchini

Paris, 1935 and the city is consumed by the news that Madeleine Verdier, a young movie starlet, has just been acquitted in court of murdering a famous French film Producer, as she claimed that she acted in self defence.

News of Madeline's vindication rapidly triggers a movement, with the courts scrambling to deal with women nationwide now inspired to rise up against the oppressive men in their lives and to claim an equal standing in society.

"A script full of wit and performances bursting with panache. The movie pays tribute to the screwball comedies of the 1930s and is a joy from start to finish." - Film Online

Showing at Forum North, 7 Rust Ave Whangarei on Thursday 3rd October at 6pm and TUESDAY 8th October at 8pm.

Tickets: Door sales only. $10 WFS members. $15 Non members.

All welcome. Cash only please.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
