OLD TIME MOVIE SHOW programme


There will be 3 different first halves so if anyone comes back for different shows they won't see the same stuff as before.


Friday Night 7pm - Laurel and Hardy "Way out West" The boys are charged with the task of delivering a deed to a mine to a girl who they have never met and end up giving it to the wrong person and in attempting to get it back, all hell breaks loose with the resulting mayhem which only these two can create.


Saturday 2pm Matinee - " The Bells of St.Marys" starring Bing Crosby and Ingrid Bergman in a moving and at times humorous story about a priest and a nun who have the task of running a Catholic school. Brilliant script where Father O'Malley has his ways of administration and the nuns have another. Beautiful story with some tender moments. Will bring back many memories for some of the older audience.


Saturday Evening 7pm - "The Egg and I" - Starring Fred McMurray and Claudette Colbert in a humorous tale about a chap who, on their wedding night informs his new bride that he has quit his job and bought a rundown chicken farm. Great story as new bride tries to come to grips with 'country living' with all it's hardship. But life is made a bit more interesting by the neighbours who comprise Ma and Pa Kettle and their multitude of kids and also a lone wolf woman who owns the adjoining chicken farm and takes a fancy to dear Fred. A must see on this fine list of cinematic brilliance.
