Directed by Bob Clark
Starring Peter Billingsley, Zack Ward, Melinda Dillon
Duration 104 mins
Based on the humorous writings of author Jean Shepherd, this beloved holiday movie follows the wintry exploits of youngster Ralphie Parker (Peter Billingsley), who spends most of his time dodging a bully (Zack Ward) and dreaming of his ideal Christmas gift, a "Red Ryder air rifle." Frequently at odds with his cranky dad (Darren McGavin) but comforted by his doting mother (Melinda Dillon), Ralphie struggles to make it to Christmas Day with his glasses and his hopes intact.
Dementia Friendly Cinemas have proven to be very therapeutic for people with memory problems and their families. Besides engaging the brain and stimulating emotions, being part of an audience enjoying a film helps people with dementia and their carers to feel less isolated and also challenges the stigma associated with the condition.
All Nostalgic Cinema performances have subtitles to assist full enjoyment of the film by any members of the audience who are hard of hearing.
Whilst promoted as a dementia friendly screening, we hope anyone who loves the old films will come along for an afternoon of fond memories.
Tickets £5 - includes hot drink, biscuits and chat after the screening.
Ticket price includes £1 admin fee
Seats are not allocated for these showings.
Nostalgic Cinema screenings are kindly sponsored by Churchill Retirement Living - specialists in developing attractive, purpose-built retirement apartments.

Four women: four curious love stories. Juan Diego Flórez leads a fantastic cast in Offenbach's dream-
like opera.
Through the haze of the years, a poet remembers the women he loved. But when it comes to
matters of the heart, nothing is as it seems. Particularly when the devil himself is involved…
Journeying back to his school days, Hoffmann relives his childhood romance with Olympia, a model
student in every sense. Doomed love follows him into adulthood, where the dancer, Antonia, is
taken from him too soon. Meanwhile, the sensual courtesan Giulietta has her own secret agenda. As
memory and fantasy becomes increasingly blurred, will Hoffmann find the enigmatic Stella before it is too late?
