Dulverton Cinema at Dulverton Town Hall

Dulverton Cinema at Dulverton Hall… Dulverton Films presents DARK HORSE (Cert PG) directed by Louise Osmond

At last year’s Dulverton Exmoor Literary Festival, racehorse breeder and owner Janet Vokes shared her remarkable story about how she bred her own foal who was raised on her Welsh allotment and went on to win the Welsh Grand National! As a barmaid in a poor Welsh mining village, Janet convinced some of her fellow residents to pool their resources to compete in the ‘sport of kings’ with a racehorse they would breed and raise. This documentary also includes local trainer Johnson White who was persuaded by Jane to train the horse at Philip Hobbs’ Stables in Bilbrook.  An incredible and inspirational real-life story that will thrill equine enthusiasts and novices alike.

Dulverton Cinema at Dulverton Hall… Dulverton Films presents NEVER TOO LATE (Cert 12)  directed by Mark Lamprell.

A group of seniors plan to break out of their retirement home. It has been a long time since Caine, Bronson, Angus and Wendell, ‘The Chain Breakers’, escaped the torturous Vietnamese POW camp. They now find themselves sharing a new prison, The Hogan Hills Retirement Home for Returned Veterans. Each of the boys (James Cromwell, Dennis Waterman and Roy Billing) has an unrealised dream they want to achieve before it’s too late. So, once again they band together to devise a plan to escape this new hell. But the rules of engagement have changed, in fact, they can’t even remember what they were and that’s half the problem.

Tickets-Dulverton Films members £3, non-members £5, students, accompanied by an adult, £2.50. Book in advance at Dulverton Town Hall’s Thrift Shop, open 10.30am to 2.30pm, Monday to Saturday, or email janaross2003@yahoo.co.uk  Bar open from 7pm. Films start at 7.30pm.
