CREDITON Library is once again putting on its popular “Films at the Library” on Wednesday, February 26.

Enjoy watching a film in a friendly environment. The Friends of Crediton Library will be serving refreshments.

The afternoon film is “The Little Stranger” (2018), certificate 12A, showing from 2pm to 4pm.

Based on the book by Sarah Waters, "The Little Stranger" tells the story of Dr Faraday, the son of a housemaid, who has built a life of quiet respectability as a country doctor.

During the long hot summer of 1948, he is called to a patient at Hundreds Hall, where his mother once worked.

The director is Lenny Abrahamson and the cast include Domhnall Gleeson, Will Poulter, Charlotte Rampling and Ruth Wilson.

The evening film is “The Critic” (2024), certificate 15.

London, 1934. Jimmy Erskine (Ian McKellen) is the most feared theatre critic of the age. He lives as flamboyantly as he writes and takes pleasure in savagely taking down any actor who fails to meet his standards.

When the owner of the Daily Chronicle newspaper dies, and his son David Brooke (Mark Strong) takes over, Jimmy quickly finds himself at odds with his new boss and his position under threat. In an attempt to preserve the power and influence he holds so sacred, Jimmy strikes a faustian pact with struggling actress Nina Land (Gemma Arterton), entangling them and Brooke in a thrilling but deadly web of desire, blackmail and betrayal.

The director is Anand Tucker and the cast include Matthew Cottle, Alfred Enoch, Ed Madden, Ian McKellen and Mark Strong .

Tickets are just £3 per person as the films are supported by Arts Council England funding. Please contact 01363 772578 or [email protected] or drop in to the library to book.
