About the event
Graffham Empire Movies presents The Ballad of Wallis Island, one of the most highly rated films to emerge in recent times.
An eccentric lottery winner who lives alone on a remote island brings his favourite musical duo back together to play a private show just for him – but old tensions surface between the musicians.
Critics called it ‘a big-hearted, consoling hug of a movie’, ‘a touching and funny ode to love, loss, and redemption’, ‘heart-warming, emotionally stirring, and amiably amusing’ and ‘a quiet gem’.
Certificate 12A 99 minutes
Bar offering beers, wine, cocktails, mocktails and other soft drinks plus chocolates and popcorn before the curtain and during the interval – with West Sussex ice creams available at half-time.
