Shrewsbury Film - Extras

"Roll on Wednesday for the next offering from my favourite place to be"
Maggie Mitchell

Within our first 12 months, it became increasingly clear that there was a demand for more than a main season. We listened and put on a couple of mini seasons, which proved there was an appetite for more.

Thanks to a cash injection from Film Hub North West Central, we were able to put on more films than ever before and to take more risks.

Today, we are supported by the Film Hub Midlands. Through funds from the National Lottery, Film Hub Midlands supports people to watch, show and make films in the Midlands.

We call these our Extras and include all our mini-seasons, films for festivals as well as one-off films. Sometimes, these films are loosely chosen around a theme, sometimes they are just chosen for being good, or meriting an outing on the big screen.

These films are not part of our main season membership.

A Matter Of Life and Death

U | UK | 1946 | English | 104 mins

Director: Michael Powell, Emeric Pressburger
From the acclaimed directorial pairing of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger comes a remarkable fantasy in which World War II airman David Niven finds himself summoned to heaven after surviving a plane crash that should have killed him. With England filmed in glorious Technicolor and heaven in monochrome greys, this is an utterly delightful and thought-provoking drama.
