The March film, Waking Ned Divine was a great end to the St.Patrick's Day weekend. A few of us went onto Hardy's Well pub and after a tense tie-breaker won first prize in the pub quiz!
The April showing is not the usual 3rd Sunday of the month but on Sunday 28th April and is an eco-theme film night. The doors open at 5.30pm for refreshments and a chat, then we start with a brief presentation from the Manchester Carbon Coop followed by the film: Beasts of the Southern Wild.
Then onto Hardy's Well.

17TH MARCH
St. Patrick’s Day- followed by a social drink and chat at
Hardy’s Well Pub, Wilmslow Road/ Dickenson Road junction.
The lucky winner of the national
lottery is Ned Devine, so taken by his good fortune that he now can't be waked,
because he died from the shock of it! News of the win spread quickly in the
scenic little Irish village of Tully More, but not the secret news of Ned's
demise. With lottery officials closing in to confirm the prize claimed by the
deceased Devine, Ned's closest friends scheme to keep the prize money close to
home, in memory of Ned of course! But as the plot twists humorously, they learn
it is hard is to keep such a secret in a small town.
28th APRIL
We are having an eco-climate night, with guest speaker tbc
followed by
Beasts of the Southern
Wild (2012, 93 mins 12A) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2125435/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
Hushpuppy, an intrepid
six-year-old girl, lives with her father, Wink, in the Bathtub, a southern
Delta community at the edge of the world. Wink's tough love prepares her for
the unraveling of the universe; for a time when he's no longer there to protect
her. When Wink contracts a mysterious illness, nature flies out of whack,
temperatures rise, and the ice caps melt, unleashing an army of prehistoric
creatures called aurochs. With the waters rising, the aurochs coming, and
Wink's health fading, Hushpuppy goes in search of her lost mother.
19th MAY
The Spring Picnic
Imagine Tatton Park classical
concerts…now think Birch Community Centre…bring along some food, a picnic rug
and enjoy the feature film.
The Artist (2011, 100 mins, PG)
A modern day classic- a silent film made in 2011 and Academy
Award winning for Director, costume and film score performed by the Brussels
Philharmonic Orchestra. And if there was a category for best animal, the Jack
Russell would be unrivalled!
