Whangarei Film Society - Screenings for Thursday May 11th

Geoff from Central Whangarei

Good People

For Thursday, the 4th May at 6pm we are screening the wonderful British comedy, The Lost King.

Our 8pm screening will be the Norwegian comedy, The Worst Person in the World.

UK, 2022, Comedy/Drama
103 mins, Rated M
Cast: Sally Hawkins, Steve Coogan, Harry Lloyd.
Director: Stephen Frears

Based on a true story, Philippa Langley is an amateur historian who's fascinated by the life of King Richard III. Philippa spends so much of her time researching Richard's life that she begins to see his ghost. Things get even stranger when Philippa realises that she can talk to the 500 year-old former monarch.

As such, Philippa decides to pinpoint Richard's final resting place, which had not been found, even after hundreds of years of searching. In compiling her research, though, Phillipa's controversial theories spark outrage amongst the top UK historians.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Luckily self-checkout is pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?

What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

Share in the comments below if this has ever happened to you.
