Film directed by Steven Soderbergh, starring Ian McKellen and James Corden, screening at Harbour Lights Picturehouse.
The Christophers is showing at Harbour Lights Picturehouse on Tuesday 21 July, with the film running in cinemas. It's directed by Steven Soderbergh, who's known for working across a huge range of styles, and it stars Ian McKellen and James Corden. The two of them lead the cast, and if you've followed either of their careers, that's a pairing you'll want to see on screen together.
It's playing at Harbour Lights, the two-screen cinema and bar in Ocean Village, right on the waterfront overlooking the marina. The building itself has a bit of a story: it was designed by architects Burrell Foley Fischer and first opened in February 1995 on the site where the first purpose-built docks were constructed back in the 1840s. It picked up a Civic Trust Commendation in 1997 and was shortlisted for a RIBA architecture award, and in 2000, Empire Magazine readers voted it Britain's Best-Loved Independent Cinema. It's a well-established part of the local scene, and it's still going strong.

Beyond the screens, there's a café-bar with indoor and outdoor seating, so you can grab a coffee, a slice of cake, a pizza, or a drink before or after the film. The cinema runs a broad mix of titles, from current blockbusters and family favourites to independent gems and world cinema, and The Christophers fits right into that independent side of things. If you're heading down, you'll find it in Ocean Village, Southampton, with the marina just outside.
