The Tree Of Life (12A) - Whiteleys Shopping Centre
Pop-up cinema screening of The Tree Of Life at Whiteleys Shopping Centre. The Nomad Cinema presents Terrence Malick’s recent epic for a bargain £8 per ticket.
Probably the most divisive film of 2011 has as many fervent evangelists as passionate detractors, which means you really do need to experience it for yourself. We Nomads are definitely in the pro camp, marveling at the film’s beauty and craft, and getting utterly absorbed in the family saga, elegantly played out by Brad Pitt, Jessica Chastain and several gifted child actors. The long passage set to opera which charts the origins of the universe, complete with big bangs and dinosaurs, is a mad folly that has to be seen to be believed. So leave your prejudices at the door and submerge yourself in Terrence Malick’s singular vision of mankind.
This winter The Nomad Cinema takes up residence at Whiteleys Shopping Centre, screening a mixture of recent releases and classic films from all eras.
* This new pop-up cinema concept, created by FITCH and The Nomad, can be found in the space vacated by Books Etc.
* Cinematic décor comes courtesy of an exhibition of vintage film posters from The Reel Picture Company.
* The Vestal Vodka pop-up bar will serve curated cocktails, wine, beer and popcorn, with ice cream available from the Oddono’s Gelati stall (only food and drink bought on site is allowed in the cinema).
* The most unusual cinema seating you’ll ever experience includes beanbags, inflatable wedges, directors chairs and garden benches, plus there’s tiered seating for the more traditional among you.
*And if you spend £10 or more at one of Whiteleys’ restaurants, you’ll be given a voucher that can be exchanged for one free cinema ticket (subject to availability).
