Rugby Fever at March's Screening Room

Our Screening Room Series is back for 2024! These intimate screenings will celebrate a diverse range of films that the Festival team have personally selected; from genre highlights to foreign cinema, to underrated classics to indie gems, we’ll be showing a mix of great cinema that deserves a wider audience.

Every screening includes an arrival drink and an introduction explaining the context and significance of the chosen film, and the rationale behind its selection for our programme.

As part of our weekend celebrating the 75th anniversary of several Ealing Comedies, we’re excited to be presenting a lesser-known classic from 1949. A Run For Your Money follows two rugby-mad Welsh miners on their first trip to London - it’s an underrated Ealing gem, and rugby fans will be pleased to note that it finishes just in time for the England’s Six Nation match against Ireland…!
