Insider Night at the Cinema - Film: Verity

Spice Social Thames Valley are hosting a screening of Verity at Showcase Cinema de Lux on Monday 2 November, with the film starting at 7:20pm and the group meeting at 7pm. It's an insider night, so you're going with a crowd rather than just heading in on your own.

Verity is based on the novel by Colleen Hoover and stars Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson and Josh Hartnett. The story follows Lowen Ashleigh, a writer hired to ghostwrite for the renowned author Verity Crawford, whose assignment takes a dark turn when she discovers chilling autobiographical notes about Verity's husband. It's the kind of psychological thriller that works best on a big screen.

Spice Social Thames Valley is part of Spice Social, the UK's largest independent social and activity group, which has been bringing people together through organised events for over 40 years. This particular group is run by local host Jackie Whyte, who programmes everything from pub nights and walks to concerts, white water rafting and weekends away. It's open to singles and couples alike to meet new friends and try new things, and they make it clear it's not a singles or dating club. The cinema itself is a Showcase Cinema de Lux, described as the group's favourite, with a Costa coffee shop, a bar and leather reclining seats on every screen.

Tickets were £7.99 for Insider members and £10.99 for non-Insider members, though both are now listed as sold out. The meet is at 7pm, and the film starts at 7:20pm at Showcase Cinema de Lux, Loddon Bridge, Reading Road, Reading, RG41 5HG.
