SUMMARY:Trix Worrell's Film Night: For Queen and Country
DESCRIPTION:A film screening starring Denzel Washington\, followed by a Q&A with the film’s screenwriter Trix Worrell \n\n\n\n\nAward winning writer and Book Festival Patron\, Trix Worrell\,  wrote the script for the film For Queen and Country which starred Denzel Washington. \n\n\n\nWe will be screening the film in which Washington stars as a Black British former paratrooper\, who joined the British Army to escape the poverty of inner city London; He fights in the Falklands War\, and upon returning home he finds that society ignores and challenges him while trying to adjust to normal life. \n\n\n\nThe film has been reevaluated since its release as a serious critique of Thatcherism and its effects on the UK in the 1980s. \n\n\n\nFollowing the screening we are delighted to have Trix hosting a Q&A. \n\n\n\nFor tickets and full line up please click here.
