In May the group enjoyed a tongue-in-cheek gangster movie, ‘Prizzi’s Honour’, starring Jack Nicholson, Kathleen Turner and Angelica Huston. Suffice to say many men schemed and fought but the superior tactician got her desired outcome. The movie for June is ‘The Butler’. It has many leading actors involved and has attracted many favourable reviews. Your Convenor has not seen the movie so it will be new for me as well.

About our Film Discussion GroupCome and join us in 2026 as we discuss films seen at a cinema, via a streaming service or even a television series. At our classes we discuss anything we have watched during the month. This provides an introduction to films that may be of interest to others as well as giving an opportunity to compare ideas about films several people have seen.
Films screened at the Benalla Cinema or Swanpool provide a range of films that could be of interest. Each week, when the Benalla Cinema films are known I will share some summary and review information to help you choose a film you might find interesting. In 2026 I will also try to provide some information about the upcoming skills being screened at Swanpool. When discussing films, we will talk about the features that most appealed to us, such as performance and cinematography. It may include reasons we found the film not worth seeing and why. We end the discussion on each film by providing a rating out of 5. For 2026 there will be a maximum class size of 10. Where upcoming films are known these may be discussed at the class to help select films to watch during the following month, and if several people see the same film, this can add to the depth of discussion.
