Warwick Student Cinema: The Apartment (35mm)

Event from Warwick Student Cinema

Monday 02 December 2024, 7.30PM - Monday 02 December 2024, 9.30PM

L3 

Come see The Apartment presented on 35mm film on the big screen in L3!


Billy Wilder’s Christmas classic, starring Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine, is a beautifully sweet and heartachingly warm story of connection between two people who are both being taken advantage of in the hopes of achieving their dreams. Together they give each other the strength to break free and find happiness together. The story follows an insurance clerk, C.C Baxter (Lemmon), and elevator operator Fran Kubelik (Shirley MacLaine) as they become intertwined because of their boss’ behaviour. The film deals with themes not often explored in the typical Christmas film – themes of class, and workplace exploitation are at the forefront of the film, however Wilder’s brilliant and witty writing combined with Lemmon’s great comedic timing give the film the levity it needs. The character of Fran Kubelik is one of Wilder’s most touching characters and MacLaine’s performance is nuanced and sensitive. The Apartment is often forgotten as a Hollywood classic, but it certainly shouldn’t be overlooked. The cinematography is lovely, and the story is sweet. It will warm your heart on a cold winter's night. [Marnie McCrudden]
