Week 8 2014



Hello!

Snowdrops in the garden
This week is an extremely quiet week… not much on but the cinema and even less going on round and about!  The sky is actually blue today, and there’s colour from spring flowers that have made through the saturated garden.

Perhaps now is the time to wash away the winter cobwebs with a new hairstyle, Lizzie Fairhurst is a hairdresser with 25 years experience and she has set up a little salon not far from Gensac offering a full range of services for ladies, gents and children.  If you want to find out more you can contact Lizzie by email lizziefairhurst@hotmail.com phone 06 52 49 56 58 or on her Facebook page.

If you hear of any events in the area, or are holding an event that you would like listed please don’t hesitate to let me know, otherwise we should take a leaf out of the school children’s book and take off on holiday these next 2 weeks!

Best wishes,
Helen

Week 8 2014

Monday 17 February

17 February 20h30 : 12 Years a Slave is showing in VO (Original Version English) at the Grandecran in Libourne.
Based on an incredible true story of one man's fight for survival and freedom. In the pre-Civil War United States, Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a free black man from upstate New York, is abducted and sold into slavery. Facing cruelty (personified by a malevolent slave owner, portrayed by Michael Fassbender), as well as unexpected kindnesses, Solomon struggles not only to stay alive, but to retain his dignity. In the twelfth year of his unforgettable odyssey, Solomon's chance meeting with a Canadian abolitionist (Brad Pitt) will forever alter his life.

DiMaso pushes them into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and mafia that's as dangerous as it is enchanting. Jeremy Renner is Carmine Polito, the passionate, volatile, New Jersey political operator caught between the con-artists and Feds.
