15 NOVEMBER: Halifax Film Society present “The Choral” starring Ralph Fiennes at The Maurice Jagger Centre, Halifax.
This 2025 film is directed by Nicholas Hytner.
A choral society’s male members enlist in World War I, leaving the demanding Dr. Guthrie to recruit teenagers. Together, they experience the joy of singing while the young boys grapple with their impending conscription into the army.
“A quiet and consistent pleasure: an unsentimental but deeply felt drama which subcontracts actual passion to the music of Elgar and leaves us with a heartbeat of wit, poignancy and common sense.” ”
Peter Bradshaw The Guardian
When: Sunday 15 November 23rd at 7.30pm
Where: The Maurice Jagger Centre, Winding Road, Halifax HX1 1UZ – opposite the bus station.
