La prochaine séance (rectificatif)

Stella Freeman de la Jaudonnière est correspondante pour le cinéma de la Chataigneraie qui diffuse régulièrement des films en V.O. Etrange ambiance que ces séances de cinéma où le public est pratiquement composé de sujets de sa Gracieuse Majesté ! Je vous incite à vous inscrire pour la prochaine séance et merci à Stella de nous tenir au courant de ces diffusions.

Hi everyone

 Hi everyone - just to let you know that Benjamin Button will NOT be screened on Fri/Sat this week due to unforeseen circumstances.

In its place they have REVOLUTIONARY ROAD - synopsis below.

If you have booked with the Tourist Board, please can you telephone them to confirm whether or not you will be attending the new film on Saturday at 8pm only as the Friday screening is cancelled.

Can you please inform everyone you know that has already booked.

Monsieur Menenteau is very sorry that this has happened and at such a late date.

Best Wishes

Brenda

Synopsis

It's 1955. Frank and April Wheeler, in the seventh year of their marriage, have fallen into a life that appears to most as being perfect. They live in the Connecticut suburbs with two young children. Frank commutes to New York City where he works in an office job while April stays at home as a housewife. But they're not happy. April has forgone her dream of becoming an actress, and Frank hates his job - one where he places little effort - although he has never figured out what his passion in life is. One day, April suggests that they move to Paris - a city where Frank visited during the war and loved, but where April has never been - as a means to rejuvenate their life. April's plan: she would be the breadwinner, getting a lucrative secretarial job for one of the major international organizations, while Frank would have free time to find himself and whatever his passion. Initially skeptical, Frank ultimately agrees to April's plan. When circumstances change around the Wheelers, April decides she will do whatever she has to to get herself out of her unhappy existence.
