News about the last film in our 2013/14 season. |
This week sees the final film in our 2013/14 season, The Great Gatsby, a new and truly outstanding adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's famous 1925 novel of the same name. The Great Gatsby is being shown in The Corn Exchange on Friday 28th March 2014 at 7.30pm and Saturday 29th March 2014 at 7.30pm. The film is co-written and directed by Baz Luhrmann, and stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, Joel Edgerton, Isla Fisher and Jason Clarke. It follows the life and times of millionaire Jay Gatsby and his neighbour Nick, who recounts his encounter with Gatsby at the height of the Roaring Twenties. It is the Spring of 1922 in New York City, a decadent playground of glittering jazz, bootleg empires and skyrocketing stocks. Chasing the American dream, would-be writer Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) arrives from the Midwest, only to land next door to Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), a mysterious millionaire whose estate overflows with endless parties. As Nick's beautiful cousin Daisy (Carey Mulligan) and her blue-blooded husband Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton) fall into Gatsby's orbit, Nick bears witness to a tragedy of impossible love and incorruptable dreams. Admission is £6, with tickets available from Brydens Newsagents and at the door on the evening, subject to availabilty. |

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. So far, with your help, we have raised over £9,300.
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.
