With four of this year's Best Picture nominees in a row, we can't think of a better time to join up if you haven't already done so!
Most of this week's films are 'No Guests' screenings too, so if you have friends who wish to come along, don't forget that we also have Weekly Memberships for sale. They cost only $15 and provides entry into all films a week from the date of purchase. Fantastic value for a fantastic week of films!
