New Film List for Spring and Summer Term 2011

Impact has produced a full film season for the rest of the academic year, you will find this HERE. However I should point out that the day has changed from Thursday to Wednesday. This has enabled us, in most cases, to see two films a month thus providing a more fulfilling and varied programme.

Book Club Dates Announced

The dates for next spring and summer terms at the book club are now on the Book Club section of this blog here .

White Christmas

Last night the film club was treated mince pies, mulled 'cordial' and a proper festive classic - White Christmas, which was enjoyed by all (even the scrooges).

December's Book

The next book for the book club is The Christmas Train by David Baldacci.




















I'm told by the Nantwich Bookshop that this is currently out of print, but it seems to be available online, with lots of offers of second hand.

The next book club meeting will be on December 20th, 7pm at Costa Nantwich. We will be having a christmassy celebration, so feel free to bring along festive nibbles (we have Brian at Costa's permission) and also a christmas reading if you have a favourite you'd like to share.

Rescheduled Film

The showing of A Single Man has been rescheduled to Wednesday 24^th November at 7.30.

This is one of the previously postponed films.

The film is set in Los Angeles in 1962 and tells the story of George Falconer, a middle-aged English college professor who has struggled to find meaning in his life since the car accident that killed his longtime partner, Jim, eight months earlier. Jim's family disapproved of his relationship with George and thus refused George permission to attend the funeral. It stars Colin Firth in the lead role.

This is a special showing for the Bookworms United book club but all are welcome.

The next meeting of the book club is on Monday night at 7pm in COSTA COFFEE Nantwich.
