Whangarei Film Society - screenings for Tuesday June 18th

Geoff from Central Whangarei

Good People

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

So, on TUESDAY, the 18th June at 6pm, WFS will be screening the hilarious British comedy/mystery starring Olivia Coleman, Wicked Little Letters.

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
