Whales Of August
Whales of August Sun 4 Oct 1:30pm £7.50/£6.50 A swansong for Bette Davis, her co-star, Lillian Gish, and director, Lindsay Anderson, The Whales of August tells the story of two widowed sisters living together on the Maine coast – one (Davis) is blind and cantankerous, the other (Gish) is optimistic and resilient. Presented in a newly restored print this film is a masterpiece and one of the finest and most poignant films ever made about older age.
