It's A Wonderful Life (U)

Woodrows Coffee Co is screening It's A Wonderful Life on Wednesday 23 December, from 20:00 to 22:10. It's a proper cinema night in the middle of the Christmas rush, and the timing fits the film's mood perfectly.

Woodrows frames its whole programme around a love of 'proper films' — the classics, the cult favourites and the hidden gems. They show them with a 4k projector and 5.1 Dolby surround sound, and they round the whole thing out with food and drink on hand. It's a cinema experience that doesn't ask you to choose between a good screen and a decent drink.

They also keep an eye on local talent: they sometimes screen a short film before the main feature to give local filmmakers a platform, so there's a chance you'll see something from a Swansea maker before the main event kicks off. Doors open an hour before the showing, so if you want to get settled with a coffee or a drink before the lights go down, you've got plenty of time.

General admission is between £7.00 and £7.50, plus a small ticket service fee. The screening runs from 20:00 to 22:10, and you'll find them at 79 Brynymor Rd, Swansea SA1 4JE.
