FIVE ON A TREASURE ISLAND |
|
Date: Saturday 11 September
Time: Doors open 1.30pm, Event starts at 2.00pm
Venue: Rex Cinema, Wareham
We are delighted to be launching the British Film Institute's brand new DVD of Enid Blyton's " Five on a Treasure Island". Published in 1942, this was the first of the Famous Five series and in 1957 the Children's Film Foundation commissioned an adaptation of the book, which is what will be screened on this special afternoon. So if you fancy an afternoon of fun, ripping adventure and mystery come along to the Rex. (Filmed in Corfe Castle, Studland and Weymouth)

Norman Wright, Head of the Enid Blyton Society, and a member of the BFI will be speaking during the event.
Before the film screening at 2pm there will be a Timmy-the-Dog-Lookalike-Competition with a pet prize donated by Purbeck Pets and Equestrian so if you think your dog looks like Timmy bring him or her along. Sorry but dogs cannot stay for the film.
Tickets: Children £5, adults free entry if accompanied by a child! All other tickets £5.
Ice cream, sweets, pop and lashings of ginger beer available!
Special early copies of the DVD will be available at this event (not available to buy in the shops until 13 September)

What an enjoyable afternoon we all had at the Rex cinema on Sunday 21 March. This was our first joint venture with the Asian Women's Association and we hope there will be many more. The afternoon began with a delightful display of Indian dancing followed by the Bollywood comedy THREE IDIOTS. Hilarious, and at times with not a dry eye in the house, the film also had the occasional sombre moment but still the audience left feeling uplifted and with smiles on their faces knowing that 'All Is Well'. Thanks go to Rajpoot Restaurant Wareham who provided the delicious snacks to enjoy during the interval. |

We are very pleased to report that the special showing of The Comedians on Sunday 7 February at the Rex Cinema in aid of the Haiti Disaster Appeal raised around £1,000. A very big thank you to all of you who came along and supported this event and a special thank you to the Rex staff who made no charge for their services and donated the income from ice cream and bar sales to the appeal. |
