Launching with a western-themed party and a screening of Hell or High Water, audiences are encouraged to dress up in their dusty desert finest – think plaid, jeans, boots and a ten-gallon hat if that floats your boat.
With a focus on new release films, expect to see the likes of Denis Villeneuve’s smart sci-fi Arrival, designer Tom Ford’s thriller Nocturnal Animals starring Amy Adams and Jake Gyllenhaal, Harry Potter spin-off Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the next chapter in the Star Wars saga Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Damien Chazelle’s Hollywood musical throwback, La La Land starring Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, Aussie dog-lovers flick Red Dog: True Blue, and the steamy sequel Fifty Shades Darker – just in time for Valentine’s Day.
Wednesday night will become a retro night, where audiences can revisit old favourites including Woody Allen’s seminal love letter to New York, Manhatten.
Capping it off comes a delicious menu featuring food sourced from local growers and producers along with a curated range of craft beer and wine, all rounded out with vegan-friendly popcorn.
