The Critic

Ferring Community Cinema will be showing their next film, ‘The Critic’ on Friday 14th February.

 

Ian McKellen plays Jimmy Erskine, the Daily Chronicle’s theatre critic, known for his extravagantly savage reviews and consequently feared by thespians!

 

When the Daily Chronicle’s new owner expects kinder reviews, his response is vicious. A vulnerable starlet, (Gemma Arterton), a lovelorn newspaperman (Mark Strong), and even Jimmy’s live-in “Secretary”, Tom (Alfred Enock), are all collateral damage in his Machiavellian scheme to survive.

 

The film will be showing at Ferring Village Hall. Tickets are £6 and available at the North Ferring Co-Op, the Premier Stores in South Ferring, and on the door on the night. Ticket price includes tea, coffee or a soft drink, and biscuits.  Doors open at 6.30pm for a prompt 7pm start.
