Event information

The Wyndham Hall in Taunton is now able to screen films and the first, A New Leaf is a comedy classic from early 1971 starring Walter Matthau in excellent form. Adapted from the book A Green Heart and directed by Elaine May, the 1960’s comedy partner of Mike Nichols (The Graduate) this is a very funny film and will make an excellent inaugural film for discerning cinema lovers in Taunton.
Film synopsis: A spoiled and self-absorbed man who has squandered his inheritance, Henry Graham (Walter Matthau) is desperate to find a way to maintain his lavish lifestyle. Henry sees an opportunity when he meets Henrietta Lowell (Elaine May), an awkward and bookish heiress. Though Henry courts Henrietta, he has no intention of remaining with her, and he develops a surprisingly sinister scheme. As Henry attempts to execute his plan, he finds that seeing it through may not be as easy as he had thought. The film is 102 minutes long.
Don’t miss this opportunity to see this classic film in the company of others.
There will be light refreshments before the screening starts.
