The next film of the 2024-25 Slinfold Village Cinema season, on Saturday 18th January 2025, will be THELMA (12A) starring June Squibb.
OVERVIEW - When 93-year-old Thelma Post gets duped by a phone scammer pretending to be her grandson, she sets out on a treacherous quest across the city to reclaim what was taken from her.
REVIEW - Thelma is slickly made, real-life grandmother sweet, overall warm and winsome. It's likely to draw laughs if you've ever coached someone on how to use a computer, tears if you've ever loved an elderly person who held tightly to their dignity. And Squibb is as understatedly funny and commanding as you'd expect. Both actor and character remain, despite all societal and personal forces to the contrary, absolutely vital even as the circumstances and potential of life shrink. What a joy to witness it.
