For October’s First Thursday Film Club we’ll be watching The Outrun at 5pm on Thursday 3rd and then gathering in the bar for a chat to share our feelings on the film, or about film in general, from around 7:30pm. First Thursdays are a new meet-up organised by the Friends of Hyde Park Picture House but open to everyone.
Starring and produced by Saoirse Ronan, and adapted from the bestselling memoir by Amy Liptrot, The Outrun is a life-affirming story about living on the edge, healing and what it means to return home.
“This is beautiful filmmaking. This is cinema where everything matters, where every little detail adds up to create something seriously exhilarating to experience in the theater.” – Alex Billington, FirstShowing.net
“The Outrun’s true tether, however, is Ronan, and here she works to all her greatest strengths. The film wraps entirely around her, yet she’s far too honest an actor to ever play up to the audience’s expectations of a woman in crisis.” – Clarisse Loughrey, Independent
The film is showing every day this week so we hope you will get chance to see it and then join us on Thursday to talk about it.
