Whangarei Film Society - screenings for Thursday October 3rd
Good People
On Thursday the 3rd October at 6pm, WFS will be screening the French comedy, The Crime is Mine.
Our 8pm screening is the inspiring story of devotion and love with the French/Moroccan film, The Blue Caftan.
THE CRIME IS MINE
France, (English subtitles) 2023, Crime/Comedy, 102 mins, Rated PG
Cast: Nadia Tereszkiewicz, Isabelle Huppert, Dany Boon, Fabrice Luchini
Paris, 1935 and the city is consumed by the news that Madeleine Verdier, a young movie starlet, has just been acquitted in court of murdering a famous French film Producer, as she claimed that she acted in self defence.
News of Madeline's vindication rapidly triggers a movement, with the courts scrambling to deal with women nationwide now inspired to rise up against the oppressive men in their lives and to claim an equal standing in society.
"A script full of wit and performances bursting with panache. The movie pays tribute to the screwball comedies of the 1930s and is a joy from start to finish." - Film Online

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟
I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
