Bold films and big conversations. Enjoy a screening of The Christophers with pre & post film discussion designed to get locals talking!

Reel Talk returns with The Christophers, Steven Soderbergh’s darkly funny drama set in London’s art world (starring Michaela Coel and Ian McKellen)

Join hosts Pilar Nalwimba and Louis Holder for a special screening including a lively discussion about the film – with BAFTA-winning actor Joanna Scanlan once again joining them on stage.

The Christophers follows a young art restorer who is brought in to complete a series of unfinished paintings by a once-famous artist. What follows is a funny, sharp and occasionally chaotic story about art, ambition, legacy and who gets to decide what is valuable.

And this is Reel Talk, so you won't just be sitting quietly watching a film.

Expect:

A screening of The Christophers

A pre and post-film discussion with Pilar, Louis and Joanna

A drink on arrival

Creative activities and plenty of opportunities to get involved

The chance to share your own thoughts on the film

Whether you're a serious film fan, an art-world obsessive or simply fancy an evening of good film, good conversation and a drink, come and join us.

About Reel Talk

Run in partnership with David Lean Cinema and Disauthority, Reel Talk is East Croydon Cool's film club with a difference. We watch great films, then stick around to talk about them – bringing together filmmakers, actors, creatives and local film lovers for conversations that go beyond the usual Q&A.

Come for the film. Stay for the conversation.
