Christmas

Sat 29 Nov - Sun 28 Dec

Christmas comes to HOME’s cinemas, bringing with it old friends, family favourites and magical experiences across stage and screen.

The Muppets rub shoulders with the artistes of The Royal Ballet; PAW Patrol set out to save Christmas while the Grinch sets out to steal it; and It’s a Wonderful Life reclaims its place at the heart of HOME’s Christmas celebrations.

Beyond the usual festive fare, December’s film programme includes a season of not-so-merry melodrama. Christmas is, after all, the season for heightened emotions, excess and – of course – romance.

The star at the top of the melodramatic tree is surely Douglas Sirk: Hollywood’s maestro of eye-catching satires and heart-rending dramas throughout the 1940s and 1950s. His wintertime classic All That Heaven Allows is a suitably seasonal centrepiece of December’s line-up, and screens alongside a selection box of great melodrama.

See full details of the season Too Much: Melodrama on Film here.
