Join us this September for an award-winning thriller that combines action, humour and compelling storytelling.

Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson, One Battle After Another follows former revolutionary Bob, whose quiet off-grid life is shattered when an old adversary returns after sixteen years. Faced with rescuing his daughter, Bob is forced to confront the consequences of decisions made long ago in a gripping story that blends tense action with moments of unexpected comedy.

Led by a superb cast including Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro and Teyana Taylor, the film has been widely praised for its ambitious storytelling, memorable performances and striking visual style.

Behind the scenes

One of the film's most talked-about achievements is its distinctive look. Rather than relying heavily on digital techniques, many of the large-scale action sequences were filmed on location using classic VistaVision cameras, creating a rich, cinematic feel that rewards the big-screen experience.

Director Paul Thomas Anderson has also revealed that the screenplay evolved over nearly two decades, resulting in a film that balances thrilling entertainment with thoughtful themes about family, loyalty and the long shadow cast by the past.

Whether you're drawn by the stellar cast, the award-winning filmmaking or simply enjoy seeing great cinema on the big screen in friendly company, One Battle After Another promises to be an unforgettable evening.

Join us as Windlesham Film Club embraces the Halloween season with one of the year's most talked-about releases. The Bride! is a bold, stylish reinvention of one of cinema's most enduring stories, blending gothic fantasy, dark humour, romance, music and crime into a film unlike anything else on this year's programme.

Set against the backdrop of 1930s Chicago, the story follows Frankenstein as he seeks the help of an unconventional scientist to create a companion. But when a murdered young woman is brought back to life as the Bride, events take an unexpected turn. Rather than becoming the obedient creation anyone anticipated, she forges her own path, setting off a chain of events that attracts the attention of the police and sparks a movement that challenges the world around her.

Written and directed by Academy Award-nominated actress and filmmaker Maggie Gyllenhaal, the film features an outstanding ensemble cast including Jessie Buckley, Christian Bale, Penélope Cruz, Annette Bening, Peter Sarsgaard and Jake Gyllenhaal.

Critics have praised its striking visual style, fearless performances and imaginative approach to Mary Shelley's classic tale. With echoes of classic monster movies, gangster films, musicals and romance, it's a cinematic experience designed for the big screen.

Whether you're drawn by the stellar cast, the inventive storytelling or simply fancy something fittingly gothic around Halloween, we'd love you to join us.
