2024 Dates
French treasures from the Cinema Museum archives

Three features – all in 35mm prints for the authentic cinema experience.

May 19th Barbarella – Roger Vadim’s memorable (not always for the right reasons) Scifi fantasy starring Jane Fonda and many well-known faces. A rare screening.

June 16th Marius et Jeannette – The tremendous and life-affirming romcom that brought Robert Guédiguian’s Marseilles to the world. Socially aware and engrossing. One of the most intelligent and enjoyable Romcoms you are ever likely to see.

July 14th Cible Emouvante (Wild Target) A brilliant dark comedy to conclude. Great performances and a sparkling script gives you an insight into paid assassins you would never expect.

The Cinema Museum, Elephant and Castle

Museum opens at 1.30 for event at 2.00. Finishes by 5. (Note earlier time this season).
