Music & Movies: The Connection
Summer Screenings 2019The 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. Offering music from a number of genres, but specialising in jazz, swing, and pop, we’re delighted to have worked together to put together this exciting festival of Music & Movies, where repmusic has specifically chosen acts or performances that represent the music featured in our festival programme. At each event a repmusic ensemble will perform an extended programme to get our audiences in the perfect mood and mindset for the movie to follow. Energetic London swing quartet Pinstripe Réduit gets us in the mood for The Great Gatsby with a speakeasy swing performance. Full of shout-outs and humour, this performance will also be great for dancing. We will be joined by Kerief Catering who will be serving delicious foods of South Africa and Jamaica, including Jerk Chicken, Bunny Chow and Curry Goat. 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.

Team EC has brought together some of the best street food vendors in Cambridge who will be serving up delicious food for Enchanted Cinema ticket holders and there will be an out-door bar and popcorn kiosk along with live music from local musicians until the screening which will begin at sunset for each film.

The next date in our ‘Music & Movies: The Connection’ festival, Enchanted Cinema in collaboration with repmusic presents When Harry Met Sally. This ’80s Rom-Com classic stars cinema legends Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan. Can men and women ever just be friends? Come and join us for one of the most iconic films of all time in the beautiful Gonville Hotel. In 1977, college graduates Harry Burns (Billy Crystal), and Sally Albright (Meg Ryan), share a contentious car ride from Chicago to New York, during which they argue about whether men and women can ever truly be strictly platonic friends. Ten years later, Harry and Sally meet again at a bookstore, and in the company of their respective best friends, Jess (Bruno Kirby) and Marie (Carrie Fisher), attempt to stay friends without sex becoming an issue between them. “When Harry Met Sally is a beautiful, brainy, touching and lilting romantic comedy that should touch the heartstrings of lovers and those yearning to be in love everywhere.” – Hollywood Reporter. repmusic prides itself of providing the highest level of live music performance, in London and across East Anglia.
