AMERICAN BEAUTY

Sam Mendes' masterpiece, 1999's multi Oscar winning (Best Screenplay, Picture, Actor, Director) American Beauty stars the utterly compelling Kevin Spacey as Lester Burnham - a middle aged, middle-management suburban husband and father whose mid-life crisis turns into an unpredictable, unstoppable force. 

Bored of his job, his nagging, unfaithful wife (the brilliant Annette Bening) and moody teenage daughter (Thora Birch), Lester quits his job and reinvents himself as a pot-smoking, responsibility-shirking teenager, before the family's new neighbours (the excellent Chris Cooper), a crush on his daughter's friend (Mena Suvari) and fate intervene with tragic consequences. In turns hilarious, insightful, deliciously dark and devastating, American Beauty is a glorious masterclass in scriptwriting, acting and directing, and deservedly a true American classic. Do not miss.

Plus: Amazing film inspired cocktails - please ask for a menu on the night 

FUTURE SCREENINGS: High Fidelity (Tuesday 11th July) // Reservoir Dogs (Tuesday 25th July) // A Clockwork Orange (Tuesday 8th August) + More to be announced very soon!
