Season Finale: AGM & Coriolanus

A quick reminder that the club AGM takes place before the film at 4.00pm in the Alhambra Circle for those who want to come. The final film, at 5.00pm as usual, is 'Coriolanus'.  This is the first film directed by Ralph Fiennes and is a very clever re-interpretation of Shakespeare's play, bringing it right into the present day and going nowhere near a stage. Set in a Balkan state, we see war scenes and street fighting that remind us of the conflicts there, and arguments over democracy reminiscent of the Arab Spring in Syria today.
