A happy, healthy and prosperous New Year to all!
Our Next Film - The Conspirator - Cert 12 Our January film is The Conspirator, directed by Robert Redford, and starring James McAvoy, Robin Wright, Justin Long, Evan Rachel Wood, Tom Wilkinson and Kevin Kline. This excellent historical drama tells the true story of events following US President Abraham Lincoln's assassination in April 1865. Seven men and one woman are arrested and charged with conspiring to kill the President, the Vice-President, and the Secretary of State. The lone woman is Mary Surratt, owner of the boarding house in Washington where John Wilkes Booth and others met and planned the simultaneous attacks. Frederick Aiken, a young lawyer and Union war-hero, reluctantly agrees to defend Surratt before a military tribunal. As the trial unfolds, Aiken realises that things are not entirely as they seem, and that there may be an unexpected twist to the story of events. The United States cinema release took place on 15th April 2011, the 146th anniversary of the death of President Lincoln. The film was released in the UK on 1st July 2011. The Conspirator is being shown in The Corn Exchange on Friday 27th January 2012 at 7.30pm and Saturday 28th January 2012 at 7.30pm. Admission is £6, with tickets available from Brydens Newsagents and at the door on the evening, subject to availabilty. |

Our 2011/12 Season
By popular demand, we are having two screenings of each of our films, each being shown on two consecutive dates. Please click here to see details of our films for the full season.
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 Rotary projects and local organisations.
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.
