What's On This Week: Our Studio Send-off and Hitchcock at the Cathedral

 

Hello, 

It's our final week at The Studio and we'd like to thank you for your support during this off-site journey. We've screened everything from LGBTQ+ cult classics to pre-code gems and bold international documentaries, aiming to showcase a diverse range of film you may have never seen on the big screen before.

On Saturday you can look forward to a very special Widescreen Weekend screening of a Hitchcock classic at Bradford Cathedral, with an update soon on what's next for Pictureville Cinema.
