Fundy Cinema
Fundy Cinema screens ‘The Happy Prince’ on Jan. 6 at 4 p.m. and 7 p.m.
The directorial debut from celebrated actor Rupert Everett (Shakespeare in Love, My Best Friend’s Wedding), The Happy Prince is at once a spirited tribute to legendary author and playwright Oscar Wilde and an exacting commentary on 19thcentury British mores.
It is 1895, and Wilde (Everett, A Royal Night Out) has been imprisoned for two years for gross indecency after his affair with Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas (Colin Morgan, Testament of Youth). Upon his release, he is greeted by companions Robbie Ross (Edwin Thomas) and Reggie Turner (Colin Firth, The King’s Speech; A Single Man) and quickly moves to France to spend his final years in exile.
All shows at the Al Whittle Theatre, 450 Main St., Wolfville. Tickets are $10 and available 30 minutes before screening. Go Online: fundycinema.ca Go Online: facebook. com/ Fundy-Cinema-1692183731024542
