Get ready for an evening of tears and timeless cinema! On Saturday 29 November, the Cary Comes Home Festival brings Penny Serenade (1941) to the Bristol Megascreen at Bristol Aquarium. Doors open at 6pm for a 6.30pm start.
As featured on the Visit West website:
This heartfelt melodrama earned Bristol-born Cary Grant his first Oscar nomination and pairs him with Irene Dunne in a story of love, loss, and resilience—told through the haunting melodies of their record collection.
Festival Director Charlotte Crofts says:
Expect 78rpm records spinning in the foyer, live choir performances, and a post-screening panel exploring music and melodrama. And yes—free Cary Grant-branded tissues for this three-hankie weepie!
