Freeze Frame: All that Heaven Allows (+ intro)
Hosted By Out of the Blue Arts & Education TrustLove is in the air this Valentine’s weekend so join us at the Drill Hall for this special Freeze Frame screening as Jane Wyman & Rock Hudson become the talk of the town in this tale of love against all small town domestic gossipy odds. Youthful widow Cary Scott (Jane Wyman) falls for her independent minded (younger) gardener Rob Kirby (Rock Hudson). The unspoken societal pressures of ‘the club’ and her grown children threaten her budding romance. Can she learn to live life on her own terms or are the bourgeois rules of 1950s American society too strong to resist? Douglas Sirk’s All That Heaven Allows is a technicolour masterpiece which still resonates today, 70 years after its first release. The screening will take place in our fully heated Rehearsal Studio, located just off the Main Hall and next to the Drill Hall Cafe with a special introduction by Fraser Elliot. Why not make an afternoon of it and join us before the film for a bowl of hearty New England Fish or Vegetable Chowder? Food will be available from the Drill Hall Cafe from 1pm. Film + food, all for just £15 (+ fees).
