It's A Wonderful Life
Friday 12 - Wednesday 24 December
Capra’s best-loved film is also, ironically, one of his darkest, an unusually tough look at the compromises of life as experienced by James Stewart’s smalltown everyman. As ideals, ambitions and dreams are slowly but surely dashed, pragmatism yields to regret and despair – until an angel named Clarence reveals what might have been… A classic, and deservedly so.

White Christmas
Friday 12 - Wednesday 24 December
From the director of Casablanca comes one of the most memorable festive films of all time. Two talented song-and-dance men (Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye) team up after the war to become one of the hottest acts in show business. One winter, they join forces with a sister act (Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen) and trek to Vermont for a white Christmas. The film is a treasury of Irving Berlin classics and the result is the stuff dreams are made of.
