The Souvenir (cert 15) £5.50 7.30.p.m.
In 1980s London, amid ascendant Thatcherism and IRA violence, Julie, a young, quietly ambitious film student embarks on her first serious love affair with the mysterious Anthony. Despite the concerns of her mother and friends, she slips deeper into her turbulent relationship, finding it increasingly hard to discern fact from fiction. It’s a really gorgeous film –nostalgic, melancholy, specific and intimate. Swinton Byrne gives a star-making performance as Julie –a diffident yet passionate young woman investigating love, class, creativity and her place in the world.
Please note 50p surcharge for Borderlines films
The solar panels recently installed on the roof of Brilley Village Hall are now up and working. Not only will this help cut the hall's running costs, but we are really pleased to be reducing our carbon footprint and making a small contribution towards climate change reduction.
The cost of installing the panels was supported by the England European Regional Development Fund as part of the European Structural and Investment Funds Growth Programme 2014-2020

A nostalgic, semi-autobiographical tale, following Salvador Mallo, a film director in decline as he explores a series of experiences and encounters from his past. Facing his mortality, he recalls his childhood in ‘60s Valencia, his first love affair in ‘80s Madrid, the pain of heartbreak and his fateful early discovery of cinema. A typically witty, sensuous, evocative and intelligent film from Pedro Almodóvar, it is intensely personal and beautifully produced.

Thursday29th October: Official Secrets (cert 15) 7.30.p.m.
The gripping true story of Katharine Gun, whose job at GCHQ involves routine handling of classified information. Until on the eve of the Iraq war she receives a memo that reveals a dubious intelligence operation. A woman of principles she feels she can’t stand by and watch the world be rushed into an illegal war. She leaks the memo to the press, exposing a vast political conspiracy, and putting herself and her family directly in harm's way. Anchored by a fiery central performance from Kiera Knightley, this pacey, powerful, engaging thriller is a pertinent reminder that our world needs everyone to act according to their principles.
