Back Room Cinema Showing: We Need To Talk About Kevin Monday 27th Feb
Monday is going to be a great night. We will be showing one of Tilda Swinton’s career highlights. A thrilling and moving film We Need To Talk About Kevin is our indie tribute for all of you.
TimeOut said about it: ‘We Need to Talk about Kevin’ is thought-provoking, confident and fearless. It’s experimental but never alienating and horrific in all the right ways. It’s great to have Ramsay back behind the camera after too long an absence. Bring on the next one‘ five stars.
Back Room Cinema Monday 13th Feb, showing ‘Midnight In Paris’
A pleasant return to form for Woody Allen courtesy of Wilson and Cotillard?
A young engaged couple are forced to confront the illusion that a life different from their own is better…. Time travel, Paris and Allen’s wit make for a unique romantic comedy.
Back Room Cinema is every Monday at The Rocket. We turn The Back Room into a pop-up cinema. Comfy seats, special deals at the bar, FREE entry and FREE popcorn! xx

DRIVE – showing in Back Room Cinema Monday 6th Feb
So the man of the hour is actually the man of 2011 according to Shortlist! And it’s a fine coincidence that Drive is their film of 2011 too.
We didn’t need Shortlist to tell us this as we already knew it. That’s why it’s our LAUNCH NIGHT movie on 6th Feb at 8pm at Back Room Cinema (free entry & free popcorn too!!).
Come down and see Ryan get medieval on some nefarious types, in that ridiculously oh so cool Scorpion jacket. By the way Shortlist the scorpion should be your creature of the year too, if you must insist on deifying anything Gosling.
Can someone make me a Scorpion Jacket please? There must be someone in this uni with the skills to do that. If you can, email entertainment*at*londonmet.ac.uk
Cheers dears!
