Prepare to be swept off your feet by three special screenings, part of BFI’s UK-wide season ‘Too Much: Melodrama on Film’. Each ticket will include a limited-edition art print inspired by the film, created by local artist, Zilja Brøndum-Eklund. Join us at all three screenings to collect the full set!

In Brief Encounter, director David Lean captures the quiet ache of forbidden love with exquisite restraint. Laura Jesson accidentally meets Alex Harvey at a railway station on her way home from a neighbouring town. Both married with children, the pair begin to question their previously happy home lives when their chance encounter turns into a regular acquaintance and their initial friendship becomes a burgeoning attraction

These screenings are supported by the BFI Film Audience Network, awarding funding on behalf of the BFI National Lottery.
