François Ozon (8 Women, Swimming Pool, Summer of ‘85) returns with this witty, frothy confection set in glamorous 1930s Paris and starring Nadia Tereszkiewicz (Rosalie, Red Island) and Rebecca Marder (A Radiant Girl) alongside French acting icon Isabelle Huppert (Elle, 8 Women, Amour).
A struggling actress, Madeleine Verdier (Tereszkiewicz) faces scandal when she’s accused of murdering a famous producer. After being acquitted, she begins a new life, but gains notoriety when the truth comes out.
Expect murder, intrigue, romance and blackmail spliced with French film history, costumed in furs and feathers and performed by a chic ensemble in Ozon’s showbiz screwball.
Much Ado about Jazz with Chris Gumley and Al Gurr at Upton Magna VH last night - absolutely brilliant night. Such fantastically talented musicians!

I am so pleased I was able to see the film, as is was intended on the big screen. Much better than watching it at home on the television.

Most films we've seen are enjoyable, well-chosen for the audience and very entertaining at times. Very well run by the group, especially the refreshments at intermission.

An exciting community resource in this isolated village. 'A taste of culture'.

This venue at Tasley is extremely well organised, films are well varied for a mixed audience.

The organisers were very welcoming and offered drinks and cake as everyone arrived. The film (Ali & Ava) was different and gave an insight to other peoples lives. This is why I go to Flicks in the Sticks : to see other films rather than Box Office blockbusters and get a glimpse into other cultures around the world.
