On Wednesday 15 July 2009, Movies in Grayshott will be showing the film chosen for the 2008 Royal Film Performance A Bunch of Amateurs.

Jefferson Steel (Burt Reynolds) is an ageing Hollywood action hero, He's vain, insecure and out of work. In a final attempt to find Jefferson work, his incompetent LA agent stumbles upon the perfect role playing King Lear at Stratford. But Jefferson arrives in the UK to discover that instead of an RSC production, he is booked to tread the boards with an amateur dramatic society in the sleepy English village, Stratford St John. A clash of cultures with comic complications ensues in this funny and ultimately moving comedy. The film stars Burt Reynolds, Samantha Bond, Derek Jacobi, Imelda Staunton and Charles Durning.

Doors will open at 7.30pm, with the presentation starting at 8.00pm. Ice-creams, light refreshments and the bar will be available as usual.

The Nepalese restaurant, The Gurkha Durbar, is also offering a discount voucher for use at the Nepalese restaurant on the Headley Road from Sunday to Thursday.
