Film: The Odyssey (2026)
Given all the hype, this one was the must-see Film for us in 2026. I like the majority of Christopher Nolan‘s work; he has a knack for producing movies with a BIG ‘feel’ about them – and this one promised to be more of the same. Christopher Nolan Filmography 2000 –> Memento (2000)Insomnia (2002)Batman Begins …

Off tutu the Ballet! – Giselle
A Night at the Opera
We’re off to the Opera – in Corby. Now there’s a sentence, I didn’t think I’d ever write! 😀 We’re here at the excellent Savoy Cinema in nearby, Corby for the livestream of the RBO‘s latest production of Verdi’s La traviata (translates to “The Fallen Woman”). Don’t worry, it’s not a Health & Safety theme! …

“Your Crackers, M’Lord!”

Film: Captain America – Brave New World (2025)
I’m back into my ‘Marvel Movie Phase’. 👍 Actually, I never went away, but I think Marvel Films itself (who are desperate to rekindle their past box-office successes) have drastically reduced their output of late – so there hasn’t been much to go and see! 🤔 Our destination? My second visit to the Savoy Cinema …

Film: Bridget Jones – Mad About The Boy (2025)
This wouldn’t usually be my first choice of film — I’m more into ones in ‘spandex’! However, we had an ulterior motive! With the local Odeon recently closing its doors for good, we wanted to see what ‘The Savoy’ was like in nearby Corby. Apart from CineWorld at Rushden Lakes, this one is now probably …
