Follow this link for the new season’s programme -See the trailers and read the reviews.
Hook Norton Film Society screens 14 films on Saturday nights in the Memorial Hall, Chapel Street between September and May. Each film is preceded by a candlelit supper cooked by members.
We have two pot luck supper evenings where all members provide a dish. Each year the Society makes substantial contributions to local causes.
Doors open at 6.45pm , the meal is served at 7pm and the film starts at approximately 8pm. The one exception this year is ‘Boyhood’ when the meal will be at 6.00pm and the film at 7.00pm.
We use top of the range projection and sound equipment, provide comfortable seating, and good sightlines to a large screen. We always give a warm welcome to new members. If you don’t want to commit for the whole year, but would like to join us for the occasional candlelit supper and/or film of your choice, we’d be delighted to see you.
Our aim each season is to show exceptional films which represent a range of genres, countries and decades and which avoid the formulaic nature of movies which aim primarily for commercial success Our seasons always include a number of films which have won prestigious awards at international film festivals.
Membership, covering admission to all fourteen films costs £30 per person for the year. Meals are £6.
