Free screening of Paul Greengrass's film 'The Uprising', starring Andrew Garfield, at the MK Gallery cinema.
The Uprising is coming to the cinema at MK Gallery from Friday 20 November, with screenings running through to Wednesday 25 November. It's a new film from Paul Greengrass, who also directed Captain Phillips and the Jason Bourne series, and it stars Andrew Garfield. The whole thing runs for 128 minutes, in English.
As for what it's about, it takes you back to the Peasants' Revolt of 1381, when ordinary people stood up against the might of a kingdom. It's a bit of history that doesn't always get much space in the school books, so seeing it played out on screen should be a good way to get a proper handle on it. Garfield leads the cast, and with Greengrass behind the camera, you can expect the same kind of energy and urgency he brought to his other work.
There are four screenings to choose from across the run, so you can pick the one that fits your week. It kicks off on Friday 20 November with a captioned screening at 3.30pm. On Tuesday 24 November, there's a Silver Screening at 10.30am and a later showing at 6.50pm. Then on Wednesday 25 November, there's a 2.30pm screening. If you're not a morning person, the Tuesday evening or Wednesday afternoon slots are your best bet.
