The second date in our ‘Music & Movies: The Connection’ festival, Enchanted Cinema in collaboration with repmusic presents Baz Luhrmann’s modern and typically eccentric double Oscar winning adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s, The Great Gatsby. Midwest native Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire), arrives in 1922 New York in search of the American dream. Nick, a would-be writer, moves in next-door to millionaire Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio) across the bay from his cousin Daisy (Carey Mulligan) and her philandering husband Tom (Joel Edgerton). Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the wealthy and as he bears witness to their illusions and deceits, he pens a tale of impossible love, dreams, and tragedy. “This is fantastically enjoyable, and a blast. It is wild and rampant and thrilling.”- Deborah Ross, The Spectator repmusic prides itself of providing the highest level of live music performance, in London and across East Anglia.

This is not to be missed. Freddie defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet. The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound. They reach unparalleled success, but in an unexpected turn Freddie, surrounded by darker influences, shuns Queen in pursuit of his solo career. Having suffered greatly without the collaboration of Queen, Freddie manages to reunite with his bandmates just in time for Live Aid. While bravely facing a recent AIDS diagnosis, Freddie leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. Queen cements a legacy that continues to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day. “Frankly, if you are not cheering along with the crowd as Mercury belts out an ultra-satisfying rendition of “We are the Champions,” then a doctor should check your pulse.” We will be joined by Cambridge’s amazing local musicians, who will be getting you into the mood before the screening starts. In addition, the incredible Guerrilla Kitchen, will be bringing their #bunlove to The Gonville Hotel serving their delicious steamed buns. We also have our brand new bar where BrewBoard will be serving their stunning craft beer, so keep your picnics at home. Enchanted Cinema is back for its 5th-year of inner-city cinematic magic.
