With Get Carter Mike Hodges created a Brit-crime magnum opus with this unforgettably sleazy, slimy, nasty film from 1971. It is a violent kitchen-sink pulp with the observational brilliance and dour working-class realism of something by Ken Loach, adapted by Hodges from the novel Jack’s Return Home by the neglected British writer Ted Lewis.
The film being shown in May has not been decided yet. I already have some suggestions.
As a reminder, we will ask you to make a suggested donation (initially £5.00, you can donate more if you wish) on the door. Cash only until we get a replacement card reader. The bar also is by suggested donation, cash only.

Touring theatre in Amble
Time: 7.30 pm
Location: Amble Parish Hall
Highlights Rural Touring Scheme is back with a fantastic programme of high quality arts performances and creative experiences in rural village halls and community venues this Spring.
A compelling one woman show, “Scaffolding” from Documental Theatre.
Sheridan is having a bad day. Her church is closing, Adult Social Care are on her case, and she can’t work out what ingredients she needs from Homebase to make a bomb. With no one else to turn to, she climbs the scaffolding around the leaking church steeple with a few questions for Whoever Is In Charge. Scaffolding is an explosive new show about strength, love and community. Cost: £12
Friday 30 May 7:30pm “Steel”, a new play by Lee Mattinson set in post-industrial West Cumbria and produced by Theatre by the Lake, Keswick.
On the wet West Cumbrian coast, James and Kamran have been mates for more than a decade. At seventeen, the world should be theirs but Workington’s a ghost town – an unemployment blackspot where lasses drink Bacardi by the pint and boys don’t cry. Tickets: £12/ child £6
Bookings: 07724 687107
