Wellington Film Society: Preview – Gilda (June 25)

The Wellington Film Society’s program rolls out another oldie and a goldie. Last week it was to more modern times with Of Horses And Men, this time we’re back in the Golden Era with Gilda – featuring of course Rita Hayworth and Glenn Ford and directed by Charles Vidor.

The film was critically drubbed in its time – referred to as “high-class trash” (sounds wonderful!) but it’s now, rightfully, looked on a s film noir classic.

Now for this screening there’s a reminder to dress glam, as there’ll be cocktails downstairs just after the film finishes.
