Talkies is a not-for-profit, volunteer-led society which gets no regular funding or subsidy. Through the generous support of Friends of Talkies, together with other fund-raising and ticket sales, in 2015 we were able to:
- commission young film makers to create short films based in our area;
- run HERE FILM FESTIVAL, which showcases local talent;
- buy good quality equipment to improve your cinema experience;
- establish two new local groups - one in Bowes Park/Bounds Green and another in Bush Hill Park.
Talkies community cinema is a different experience to the conventional commercial offering.
At Talkies events you will be encouraged to come along early and stay later and have plenty of conversations about the films ...and anything else!
Talkies promote variety and diversity in types of films, venues and how the evening is run.
In short, Talkies is a community-based cinema with a local identity.
What are the benefits of being a Friend?
- advance notice of upcoming events, ahead of public sales;
- invitations to 'Friends' events;
- acknowledgement of your support on our website;
- and, of course, knowing that your generosity helps us to take risks in what we do.
