Athenaeum Film Night – The Happiest Days of Your Life
January 18, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 9:30 pm
£10.00With a memorable cast of great comedy actors, this preposterously silly farce is elevated even beyond the realms of Dighton’s play, skilfully adapted by him and Launder to the screen. No messages here, just a battle of infuriated sexes as Sim, headmaster of a boys’ school, learns that thanks to Civil Service ineptitude (could that be Richard Wattis?!) his sanctuary is to be invaded by a London girls’ school. It’s wartime, the Blitz is on, and headmistress Rutherford marches her girls into the fortress like an invading regiment.
£10.00 per person, includes a one course supper and refreshments served during the interval.
