The Round Up (1965) is the final of our winter film evenings
Our final installment of the winter Cinema Club films was recommended by one of our members; this film is an austere but visually and emotionally striking film which coolly tells an allegorical tale of how the weak struggle against the powerful (and don’t always win).
Set in 19th century Hungary, with partisans fighting against the overwhelming Russian empire, this is the kind of story which will always be relevant – whether you consider Ukraine’s current experience under Russia or any example of the plight of the underdog.
Chosen by renowned film critic Derek Malcolm as one of his 100 films of the century – this is a special finale for the Cinema Club.
Popcorn and drinks are available. Bring something comfy to lie back on (bean bag / floor cushion etc), but we do have chairs if prefer more conventional seating!
