Ferring Community Cinema: Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning

Ferring Community Cinema, Worthing

Ferring Community Cinema will be showing their next film, ‘Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning’ on Friday 9th January 2026.

The film stars Tom Cruise in his final portrayal of Ethan Hunt, alongside an ensemble cast including Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames and Simon Pegg.

Ethan Hunt and the IMF team continue their search for the terrifying AI known as the Entity – which has infiltrated intelligence networks all over the globe – with the world’s governments and a mysterious ghost from Ethan’s past on their trail. Joined by new allies and armed with the means to shut the Entity down for good, Hunt is in a race against time to prevent the world as we know it from changing forever.

Packed with spectacular action sequences, Tom Cruise continues to dazzle with his death-defying stunts – this is definitely ‘edge of the seat’ viewing!

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.

Ferring Community Cinema is a not-for-profit organisation with profits donated to Ferring Village Hall and other charities.

The Art Society Arun Monthly Talk: TS Eliot in Art

The Arts Society Arun, Rustington

Our talk this month is by Toby Faber on TS Eliot. Eliot was a poet, essayist and playwright and was indebted to, and himself inspired by, some of the 20th-century artists. He influenced his counterparts in the visual arts. Other artists illustrated his works or painted him. There are paintings and compositions inspired by him and the reverse is true. The Waste Land employs techniques borrowed from modern art.

Doors open 9.30am. Everyone welcome. Guests £7 on the door. Coffee & biscuits available.

Meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month. For more information, please email [email protected]
