Dir. David Butler (US 1953, 101mins U)

Shout it from the highest hill, the Deadwood stagecoach is coming over the black hills of Holmfirth. An entirely enjoyable whip-crack-away, gun totin', technicolour Doris Day musical. Sing-along it's no secret anymore...

Prize for best dressed cowgirl of the night.

IL POSTINO (The Postman) IS PART OF 2019'S LADIES WOT LUNCH EVENT.

Re-released and remastered, this is one of the most romantic films ever made. Set in a beautiful looking 1950s' Italy, a moving tale of poetry, love and friendship, made ever more poignant by the knowledge that the actor Massimo Trisosi, playing the poorly-educated Postman, died the day after filming ended.

Dir. Massimo Triosi, Michael Radford (Italy 1994 114mins 12)

Wonderful tear-jerking true story of the dog who kept vigil for ten years at the train station where he once greeted his owner every day.  Co-star Richard Gere has never been better. Grownups may cry.

Dir. Michael Powell (UK 1937, 75mins U)

Powell’s first serious film is a jewel and displays his visual flair with the magnificent scenery of the Hebridean island where the skipper of a yacht lands with tourists and is confronted by past memories of long-gone island-life and the coming modernity. A story of love and rivalry at its most compelling.
