We’re trialling adding subtitles to matinee film showings, except for childrens’ films, to improve accessibility for the hearing-impaired. We’re appreciative of the regular audience now for matinees and we want to make sure that we’ve done everything that we can to make it a great experience. We’ll start this Wednesday with Women Talking. We would appreciate your feedback.

5/5 The Independent;
91% Rotten Tomatoes;
4/5 Empire Online;
The bald plot facts are that the women of an isolated religious colony reveal a shocking secret about the colony’s men. For years, the men have occasionally drugged the women and then raped them. The truth comes out and the women talk about their new situation.
Overall, the critics say while Women Talking sometimes forsakes entertaining drama in favour of simply getting its points across, its message is valuable – and effectively delivered.
