The Bigger Picture film club ? ?The Party? (2017) at the Ivy House on 26 April 2018


Recommended Posts

The Bigger Picture film club will be showing ?The Party? (2017) at 8pm on Thursday, 26 April 2018, at the Ivy House.


Janet (Kristen Scott Thomas) hosts a party to celebrate her new promotion to Shadow Minister for Health, with a few close friends, many of them rather closer to each other than she knows. A (very) black comedy; as new twists in relationships are revealed or hinted at, it becomes clear that this celebration is far better watched than participated in. Timothy Spall (playing her husband, where still waters may, or may not, be running exceedingly deep) excels as usual, as does the remainder of the cast in a very theatrical film (good lines, fast dialogue, provokes thought).


Director (and writer): Sally Potter

UK

Running time: 71 minutes.

Cert: 15


We say: - the dialogue in this film positively crackles.


Film at 8pm.

    • Hi, Just a quick note to say it's six months since I launched Eats Dulwich. In that time I've reviewed 28 restaurants. Usually four or five a month except for a month when I came down with gout, which I guess is an occupational hazard. Don't say I don't suffer for my art. Early on someone – Sue, I think – asked me what I'm going to do when I've reviewed every restaurant in East Dulwich. I'm nowhere near that point, but what I have found is that a lot of new openings have tended to be in Rye Lane, so the site has expanded to cover SE15, hence the slight change of name (still haven't had any cease and desist letters from anything with a similar name).  Anyway, the site is still free, it would be great if as many readers as possible here can subscribe so that they automatically get new posts (when you try to subscribe the default might be paid subs but that's down to Substack, just tick the free option instead) as I don't post everything on EDF. Obviously you can get reviews elsewhere if you want, but I think this is the only proper site for local East Dulwich people written by a local East Dulwich person. If you like eating out please have a read. And if there are other places you think I should visit please mention them below and i'll do my best to try them.

    • Can you explain what your point was, then? Because it isn't clear to me. No. Perhaps you could provide a link and explain its relevance? That would be helpful     Those figures suggest that over 10,000,000 voters were not "rejecting a far left party."
    • Anyone can deliver for Evri - my daughter having just passed her driving test tried Evri to make some money - they basically give you a route and as many parcels as they think you can cope with - you make money for each one you deliver, so you can imagine - speed is the priority. Why would they wait for you to answer the door when they can just throw it and take a photo? If you have a choice, choose a different courier service or shop elsewhere where they do.  
    • Boil - it’s the customer’s fault, not the delivery person’s.
