Benediction
UK, 2021, Biographical drama
Cast: Jack Lowden, Peter Capaldi
Duration: 135 mins, Rated M
Written and directed by acclaimed filmmaker, Terence Davies and intermixed with archival footage of the period, this story details the life of Siegfried Sassoon.
A complex man who survived the horrors of fighting in the First World War, Sassoon, was decorated for his bravery on the battlefield. But he also became a vocal critic of the government’s continuation of the war when he returned from service.
Sassoon's poetry was inspired by his experiences on the Western Front and he was one of the leading war poets of the era. Adored by the aristocracy as well as stars of London’s literary and stage world, Sassoon remained broken by his time in the war and made his life’s journey a quest for personal salvation.
Brilliant cinema. A lyrical and spiritual masterpiece. - Celluloid Dreams

*** LIVE CHANNELLING EVENT ***
✨ What is the great spiritual awakening and why is this happening to us now?
✨ Why are more people struggling with anxiety, fear and depression?
✨ Do we all have a role to play in this shift, if so what?
✨ Why is there so much global chaos and destruction and when will this end?
✨ How can we experience more joy and peace amidst the chaos?
✨ What practical guidance can you give to help us manage this shift in our own lives?
Mercredan, channelled by Francis Evans, will answer these questions and then allow time for the audience to ask their own questions.
Come along and enjoy a relaxing evening, perhaps expand your awareness with a higher perspective and get answers you seek about consciousness and the evolution of human kind.

We just picked up a hammer near the dog park on Riverside Drive. It was lying in the middle of the road and quite dangerous. I am guessing it came off the back of someone's ute. It is a good quality tool, so if you are missing a hammer, please PM me with the colour, make and approximate size … View moreWe just picked up a hammer near the dog park on Riverside Drive.

Why were we not consulted?
I will be lobbying for the return of the same parking concession as over 70s get for mobility card holders would you support this?
Costing quoted at the time of the law change indicated $200,000 per year income from issuing fines and parking charges for disabled people.
If yes excellent if no please explain why not?

We sure need to stand up for victims for once. This was a terribly insignificant sentence for what this man did to five very young women.
I do not use Facebook so have no idea if there is one advertised there.
