BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY’S 60TH ANNIVERSARY SCREENING VENUE: NERVE CENTRE

USA.1961. DIRECTOR: BLAKE EDWARDS. CAST: AUDREY HEPBURN, GEORGE PEPPARD, PATRICIA NEAL, BUDDY EBSEN, MARTIN BALSAM. DURATION: 1HR.55MINS

Struggling writer Paul Varjak moves into a New York apartment building and becomes intrigued by his pretty, quirky neighbour Holly Golightly. Holly’s lifestyle confuses and fascinates Paul; in public she flits through parties with a sexy, sophisticated air, but when they are alone she changes into a sweet vulnerable bundle of neuroses. Audrey Hepburn, the little black dress, Henry Mancini’s beautiful song ‘Moon River’ - what’s not to love? Winner of 2 Oscars®.

“It’s charms remain undiminished after (six) decades…” Neil Smith, Total Film

USA.1946. DIRECTOR: FRANK CAPRA. CAST: JAMES STEWART, DONNA REED, HENRY TRAVERS, LIONEL BARRYMORE, THOMAS MITCHELL. DURATION: 2HRS.10MINS. CERT: U

This is director Frank Capra’s classic bittersweet comedy/drama about George Bailey (James Stewart), the eternally in debt guiding force of a bank in the typical American small town of Bedford Falls. The film opens on Christmas Eve in 1946 and George, facing financial ruin and arrest, is seriously considering taking his own life. High above Bedford Falls, two celestial voices discuss Bailey’s dilemma and decide to send down the eternally bumbling angel Clarence (Henry Travers), who after 200 years has yet to earn his wings, to help George out. Nominated for 5 Oscars®.

“The inspirational, thoroughly festive ending is guaranteed to bring tears to the eyes.” Marc Lee, Daily Telegraph
