Past event
Jan 17, 2020, 7 to 9:30 PM

The Weston Film Club returns for its tenth season again this year at the Theatre at Walker Farm thanks to the generosity of the Weston Playhouse Theatre Company!

Join us Friday January 17 7:00 for Mike Leigh's "Secrets and Lies" Winner of the Golden Palm for best picture and Best Actress at Cannes, the Golden Globe for 1997, 3 BAFTA awards and nominated for five Oscars. "Secrets and Lies" is the story of Hortense, a young optometrist whose adoptive parents have died. She sets out to find her birth mother and discovers she is alive, as are her birth brother and sister. Roger Ebert wrote: "Moment by moment, scene after scene, Secrets and Lies unfolds with the fascination of eavesdropping. We are waiting to see what these people will do next. caught up in the fear and the hope they will bring the whole fragile network of their lives crashing down in ruin. When they prevail - when good common sense and good hearts win over secrets and lies - we feel almost as relieved as if it had happened to ourselves." Our 2020 series includes films from Japan, Korea, France and Britain. Tickets for individual films remains $10:00 at the door or $35.00 for our membership "punch card" for 5 films. rsvp westonvtfilm@gmail.com.
