Cinema Club for the Over 50's. Dec 19, 10am; Cineworld

This month's Cinema Club for the Over 50's film is 'Hello, My Name is Doris' starring the two-time Academy award winning actress Sally Field.

Synopsis:
Doris Miller (Sally Field) is a shy, eccentric 60-something woman, living alone following the death of her mother, whom she has lived with for her whole life. At the funeral, her brother Todd (Stephen Root) and his wife (Wendi McLendon-Covey) try to persuade her to sell the house, especially the possessions, as she is a hoarder and has a habit of keeping discarded furniture she finds on the street. Her only close friend is the fiery Roz (Tyne Daly), though she gets along with her granddaughter. On her way to work, where she has been working as a data entry worker for decades, she meets a younger co-worker John (Max Greenfield) who she is immediately infatuated with. Empowered and inspired by cliched self-improvement tapes, Doris decides to go after him.

The venue is CineWorld, The Mall Wood Green, High Road, London N22 6LU

The film will begin at 10am..

The price is £4.90 which includes tea or coffee and snacks after the film.

There are also facilities for the disabled.

The Cinema Club for the Over '50s will run on the last Monday of the month at 11am with the exception of Dec.

I hope to see you there.
