A WAREHAM cinema will welcome the stars and director of an award-winning film at a special weekend screening.
Rex Cinema in Wareham has said it’s “delighted” to host weekend screenings of Lucas & Albert, a new production from Longhurst and Putt, starring EastEnders and film actor A.G. Longhurst and Dorset actor James Osborne.
Lucas & Albert won the Best Feature Film Award at the 2021 National Film Awards.
The feature is directed by Darren Cooke who will accompanied by his leading men for two special Q&A screenings for the film on September 17 and 18.
The story follows two ageing hitmen, the titular Lucas and Albert, who are sent to clean up a bank robbery that went wrong before they can hang up their guns for good.
The dark comedy thriller was up against such films as Oscar nominated 1917 and Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson's Fighting With My Family.
The Rex, which is run as a not-for-profit community cinema, reopened in May this year after a new ground floor refurbishment and improved cinema access.
Tickets can be booked at therex.co.uk and performances are at 7.10pm from Friday to Monday.
