Leamington Underground Cinema is delighted to present a screening of ace documentary Elstree 1976 at 8pm Saturday 2nd December, following the first exciting Spa Wars event.

Prior to the feature, professor Daniel Winchester's expose of local alien activity 'Furry Death From Outer Space' will play for its only public screening.

After the film there will be a Q&A with producer Hank Starrs (who with director Jon Spira is now working on sequel Elstree 1979 about The Empire Strikes Back) and some Star Wars cast members.

Tickets are £10. Doors open at 7.30pm, the programme commences at 8.00pm and the age limit is 12.

ELSTREE 1976 TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1NIE1HIIrI

"In 1976, during the hottest summer on record, Star Wars was shot in suburban North London. Nobody involved had any idea how big the film would become, many couldn't even remember the title.

Yet for the bit-part actors and extras, their faces hidden in masks and helmets, this seemingly insignificant job would go on to colour their lives even four decades later.

ELSTREE 1976 is a portrait of a cross-section of these people; from the man inside the most iconic villain in film history to the guy whose character was completely cut from the final film. It tells the stories of their lives and explores the eccentric community they have formed, traveling the world, signing autographs for fans."
