NOVEMBER FILM
Springsteen Deliver Me from Nowhere
For our movie outing in November we saw Springsteen Deliver Me from Nowhere which we all enjoyed.
It is a 2025 biopic about the making of rock star Bruce Springsteens 1982 album Nebraska. It follows his process of recording the album on a four track recorder while struggling with his past and striving for a new identity. It cuts deep as an intimate portrait of Springsteens life, capturing the emotional struggle that shaped his legendary album.
Being an avid film goer Daryl had already seen it so he opted for a documentary, Prime Minister, on the rise of Jacinda Ardern, which he thoroughly enjoyed.
We all met up over the road at our usual cafe for lunch and some interesting conversation.

FILM THE TRAVELLERS
FILM – DOWNTOWN ABBEY FINALE – Glenn Ewing
Our movie outing for this month was to see Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale. It was our chance to say our farewells to the Crawley family who we have got to know so well through the popular TV series and the previous two films.
It’s an emotional and elegant farewell to this popular drama as the aristocratic household faces a changing world, secrets are revealed, old flames rekindled and long standing loyalties tested.
It features the original ensemble cast and exhibits the usual splendour we’ve come to expect with opulent costumes, grand settings, exquisite cinematography, witty dialogue and an engaging storyline.
We all thoroughly enjoyed it.
Afterwards we kicked on to our usual cafe over the road.
AUGUST 2025 - Glenn Ewing
For our movie outing in August at the Balwyn cinema we all did our own thing and saw The Stolen Painting, Mr Burton and the Life of Chuck and it was a general thumbs up for the other two films. We all enjoyed meeting up over the road for lunch and had a good discussion about our chosen films. Something different but I think it worked out well.
