Hello Laurel & Hardy friends,
A belated Happy New Year to you all. Our next film show is this Wednesday, 18th January at the usual location, THE WHITE LION….24, Middle Street, BEESTON, NG9 1FX commencing at the usual time of 7.30pm in the upstairs function room – in the “Beeston cinema”.
All are welcome and entry is free.
This Wednesday just happens to fall on Babe Hardy’s birthday….and not just any birthday, he was born 18th Jan 1892 and so we’ll be celebrating the 125th university of his birth…yes that’s 125 years ago! We have a strong programme of Hal Roach Studio short film subjects planned which reflects the day, Babe’s talents or his real life personality. I’m also taking the opportunity to show a solo one-reel (10 mins) silent comedy film from 1915 where a young Babe Hardy plays a very prominent role. We will also be showing latter age film, newsreel and home movie clips of Babe from the 1950s.
Yes, there will be a birthday cake, usual snacks…..and of course the famous raffle, any unwanted christmas presents would be gratefully accepted.
After Wednesday, our next film show will be the usual 3rd Wednesday….February 15th.
So, hopefully,we’ll see you this Wednesday to celebrate Babe’s 125th birthday. Please bring friends and family – all are welcome.
Fraternally Yours,
Dave T
