Biggar Little Cinema The Community Cinema at the Corn Exchange

News Update No 11 August 2012 www.biggarlittlecinema.org.uk

Welcome to the first news update of our 2012/13 season, with details of our films and information about membership.

We have another excellent line-up for our new season which commences in October - from a quintessential British comedy to an American drama, from an Aardman animation to a charming Martin Scorcese adventure, from a black & white 1920s drama to the latest James Bond movie ..... Something for everyone? We hope so. Two of our films – The Artist and Hugo – each won five Oscars this year! Click on the button below each film to read more about them.

Membership

As last season, by popular demand, we are having two screenings of every film, each being shown on two consecutive days as detailed above. We offer a choice of membership - either for the first screening or the second. Membership is available for £30, a saving of £6 on the ticket price for the six films.

The new Membership forms may be downloaded by clicking on the icon below:

There is one form for the first screening of each film and one for the second screening. Please choose either First Screening or Second Screening, print out the form and fill in the appropriate section. If the application is for more than one person, please add the other name(s).

Once you have filled in the form, just pop it in the post, together with your cheque made out to Biggar Little Cinema, to Stewart Houston, 21 Rowhead Terrace, Biggar ML12 6DU.

Many thanks to all of you who have already confirmed your membership for our new season. If you haven't become a member yet, please do consider joining. The more members we have, the less we pay in film licence fees, which is particularly important since all our surplus goes to local organisations and Rotary charities. Your memberships for our 2011/12 season, together with ticket sales, have already enabled us to raise £5,270 - so you can see that we value your continued support.

For more details, please see our membership page.

For non-members, tickets may be purchased from Brydens or at the door, subject to availability.

About Us

Biggar Little Cinema was founded in February 2011, and is run as a community cinema on a non-profit basis.

As a not-for-profit organisation, our aim is to disburse all the surplus from our screenings as charitable donations, to local organisations and Rotary projects.

We also aim to provide the opportunity for members of an isolated rural community to enjoy good films without having to make a round trip of 60 miles or more to the commercial cinema.

Our films are shown in high-resolution digital quality, and projected using the latest digital equipment on to a full-size cinema screen. To match the exceptional quality of our picture, our sound is Dolby stereo using high definition loudspeakers. The Corn Exchange is well-known as an excellent venue, with very comfortable cinema-style seating and a cosy atmosphere. A full bar is available both before and after each screening, with a lounge area for relaxing and chatting with friends. All in all, Biggar Little Cinema offers a perfect location - and all proceeds go to support local organisations and Rotary projects.

Thank you again for your support!
