Hoylake is all set for another Film Night as local volunteers unveil a whole programme of films throughout the year.
Local community group, Hoylake Village Life, organised their first Film Night in September, a showing of Nowhere Boy. Over 80 people attended and the response was so positive that the group is keen to show more films for the local community to enjoy.
The next film will be Regeneration, a film based on the novel by Pat Barker about the wartime friendship of two poets, Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon.
The evening will feature some special surprises, provided by the Wilfred Owen Story, to celebrate the life and works of Wilfred Owen, who hailed from the Wirral and had connections with Hoylake.
Hoylake Village Life are organising the Film Nights as part of a wider initiative to provide more attractions for the local community to enjoy, and attract more people to Hoylake. Group member Mark Howard, 41, says “We had such a positive response from local residents to the last film, that we started organising the next Film Night straight away, and we will organise one every month!â€
Vaughan Williams, Chairman of The Parade, Hoylake Community Centre, said, “After the first Film Night we were inundated with phone calls asking when the next film would be shown. Local residents felt that it was just like being in a real cinema, which is a huge compliment to the quality of facilities we have on offer at The Parade.â€
Doors open at 6:30pm, when a fully stocked bar and snacks will be available. The bar will also be available after the film for people to enjoy and discuss the film.
Gerry Martin says
The film was excellent with about 85 people attending. The next showing will be of ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ on Sunday 18th December 2011.
