Calendar Girls is a humorous and inspiring dramatisation of the true story of the Yorkshire Women’s Institute members who stripped for a charity calendar to raise funds for a local leukaemia unit, where a friends husband was treated until his death. Julie Walters plays Annie, whose husband dies of leukaemia and Helen Mirren plays her best friend Chris, the genius and driving force behind the calendar. The film also features roles from the hilarious Celia Imrie, Annette Crosbie, Penelope Wilton and Linda Bassett.
The film follows the loss of Annie’s husband, John, the spark of the calendar idea, their white wine fuelled photoshoot, the ensuing media frenzy as the world wakes up to Yorkshire’s very own calendar girls and the effects of their new found media fame on their friendships and families.
Admission is £3 and tickets are available on the door. For any enquiries please call 07835 927965. Doors will open at 1.30pm and the film starts at 2pm.
On the morning of 8th April we will also be showing Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
Film at the Frazer has been made possible through a grant from Harrogate Borough Council’s Small Grants Scheme with the aim of providing affordable cultural, social and intergenerational activities for the residents of Knaresborough.
