Meet at the Steels Creek Community Centre around 6 PM for dinner ($7 donation requested to cover mains materials cost) and comradeship.

Latest Movies

Screening on Friday 26th June:
Blazing Saddles (1974) Nuthin’ to do with fires pardner; just a classic screwball comedy. This spoof of traditional Westerns actually broke quite few taboos when it was released making fun of rednecks and bigots - a Black Sheriff for instance! Jews; little old ladies; baked beans; what a gas and just what we need to brighten up a winter night. For more see http://www.allmovie.com/work/blazing-saddles-6029

Screening on Friday 10th July:
The Five Pennies (1959) Danny Kaye cuts loose with his trademark musical clowning; Louis Armstrong plays his horn and croons in that famous gravelley voice. Other big band icons chip in and Barbara Bel Geddes (long before "Dallas") and a teenage Tuesday Weld add to the excellent performances. This success with tears story based on the life of jazz great Loring "Red" Nichols is peppered with great music and is one not to be missed.

Screening on Friday 24th July:
My Fair Lady (1964) Hollywood legends Rex Harrison; Audrey Hepburn; Stanley Holloway and Wilfred Hyde-White star in this masterpiece. Based on the GB Shaw play with music by Lerner & Loewe this is a charming film that is usually a favourite with everyone. It would be a good one to bring the children or grandchildren to.
