Feast Film Nights present... After Hours - Anti Valentine's screening

Feast Film Nights in association with The Portico Gallery present an Anti Valentine's screening of Martin Scorsese's lost 80s classic After Hours starring Griffin Dunne and Rosanna Arquette.

When office drone Paul meets Marcy in a New York café they bond instantly and arrange a date for later that evening.

However the night doesn't go to plan and Paul finds his route home obstructed by angry cabbies, clumsy catburglars, unstable waitresses, condescending bouncers, and irate mobs led by ice cream truck drivers, all set in bizarre 80s Manhattan.

Live music before the film from Bianca Wilson, one of South London’s unheralded and unsigned talents.

Bianca will be performing her stylish jazz and blues inflected love songs to fit the mood of the evening.

Feast Film Nights are another volun­teer run ini­ti­at­ive from West Nor­wood Feast.

Feast Film Nights bring together people who love film and their com­munity, in an area that cur­rently has no cinema (yet!). The group get together reg­u­larly to pro­gramme and show inter­est­ing, quirky, cult or clas­sic films and doc­u­ment­ar­ies twice monthly in the Por­tico Gal­lery. The gal­lery itself is a huge space with plush red cinema seats (on wheels), an enorm­ous screen — and there’s even a bar just like in the olden days.

The emphasis is not just on the film itself but also the whole ‘get­ting together’ exper­i­ence. We show the fea­ture but also include Dj’d music, short films, inter­vals with themed drinks and food, some­times even dress­ing up — any­thing to make the exper­i­ence sev­eral steps up from simply going to the local Odeon. And a lot cheaper!

So calling all singles, celibates, the broken hearted, the wronged by love, the unromantic, those who like their love on the rocks shaken and stirred, the couples who won’t do coupledom, those for whom the words Mills and Boom are the most terrible words in the English language. This one's for you!
