THE VITO SUNDAY MATINEE – WITH SOME VERY SPECIAL GUESTS !What did London look and feel like before all our lives were changed by the idea of liberation ? The Sunday Matinee Movie will be sixties classic The L-Shaped Room (1962) –a gritty b&w portrayal of a single straight woman's life in pre-swinging London, complete with a rare and tender portrayal of her older, lesbian neighbour. The movie will be introduced by its writer Lynne Reid Banks , and will be followed by an open-mic sharing session that will give us all a chance to hearand share our stories from that time. There will testimony from an early member of the Campaign for Homosexual Equality and the Gay Liberation Front, stories from the Gay Authors Workshop - and a chance for everyone to join in the discussion about how looking back at our early days might help us to look forward.
SUNDAY NIGHT
For the evening session, VITO will be screening a specially put together programme of LGBTQ quickies , with one short, sharp film for each decade of the extraordinary journey that has brought us from the black-and-white world of the nineteen-sixties to now.
