Geoff from Central Whangarei

Good People

For Thursday, the 18th May at 6pm we are screening the wonderful British comedy, The Lost King.

Our 8pm screening will be the stunning documentary, The Velvet Queen.

The Lost King
UK, 2022, Comedy/Drama, 103 mins, Rated M
Cast: Sally Hawkins, Steve Coogan, Harry Lloyd.
Director: Stephen Frears

Based on a true story, Philippa Langley is an amateur historian who's fascinated by the life of King Richard III. Philippa spends so much of her time researching Richard's life that she begins to see his ghost. Things get even stranger when Philippa realises that she can talk to the 500 year-old former monarch.

As such, Philippa decides to pinpoint Richard's final resting place, which had not been found, even after hundreds of years of searching. But in compiling her research, Phillipa's controversial theories spark outrage amongst the top UK historians.
