Northumberland Film Sundays
Mission Statement
We are a group of film lovers dedicated to offering our community a broad range of movies not otherwise available on our local big screens.
We select films from a menu of contemporary "hot picks" offered by "The Circuit", a division of the Toronto International Film Festival.
We are a not-for-profit group and periodically we will make contributions to Northumberland County charities when a cash surplus permits.
Films are shown at the Rainbow Cinemas at the Northumberland Mall in Cobourg, Ontario at 4.00 pm on selected Sundays. We also produce a Film Festival on a weekend in January - at the same venue. More on the Festival here.

Raindow Theatre, Northumberland Mall, Cobourg
Tensions mount for the beleaguered British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (Brian Cox) in the days leading up to infamous Allied D-Day landings in Normandy, France in June, 1944. Fearful of repeating his deadly mistakes from World War I in the Battle of Gallipoli, exhausted by years of war, plagued by depression and obsessed with his historical destiny, Churchill is reluctant to embark on the large-scale campaign, one that the entire war effort hinges upon. Clashing with his Allied political opponents U.S. General Dwight D. Eisenhower (John Slattery) and British Field Marshal Bernard Law Montgomery (Julian Wadham), the troubled Churchill receives support and devotion from his wife, the brilliant and unflappable Clementine Churchill (Miranda Richardson). With her strength and shrewdness, "Clemmie" halts Winston's physical, mental spiritual collapse and inspires him on to greatness.
Leads: Brian Cox, Miranda Richardson, John Slattery, Ella Purnell, James Purefoy

Rainbow Theatre, Northumberland Mall, Cobourg
Tony Webster's life of habit and routine is upturned by a solicitor's letter which awakens a troubling incident from the past involving his first love.
Incidents are placed like jigsaw pieces in this well-crafted story that emerges with the ghosts of a romance from decades ago, turning up again to haunt the present. The actors turn in performances that fit the characters and their quirks as they were originally conceived on the page. Comparisons are inevitable, and readers will be pleased that the movie does credit to its origins as an award winning novel. It all makes sense in the end.
Leads: Jim Broadbent, Charlotte Rampling, Harriet Walter, Michelle Dockery, Emily Mortimer
Directed by: Ritesh Batra
Genre: Romance, drama Language: English
Run Time: 108Min Rating: PG-13
