When Angus can’t get home for the Christmas vacation, he is forced to stay at his boarding school with two unlikely companions – a grumpy, unpopular classics teacher and the school head cook. Our post-Christmas screening on 29th December is this feel-good comedy drama that came second in the audience film choice last Christmas.
In December 1970, a curmudgeonly boarding school teacher, a rebellious stranded student, and a grieving head cook form an unlikely Christmas family. Stranded together at Barton Academy, they clash, bond over personal traumas, and eventually find mutual empathy. This Christmas comedy drama starring Paul Giamatti was named one of the top ten films of 2023, was nominated for and won awards at the Oscars, Golden Globes and BAFTAs.
Stars: Paul Giamatti, Dominic Sessa, Da'Vine Joy Randolph Certificate: 15 Tickets £6 (£7 for non-members)
