Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? was proposed for our 4th Birthday celebrations by Garden Cinema member Elli Hollington.
Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor star in this adaptation of Edward Albee's controversial play, directed by Mike Nichols. George (Burton) is a foul-mouthed, drunken university professor married for two decades to the equally foul-mouthed, drunken Martha (Taylor), whose father is the president of George's New England college. When younger married couple Nick (George Segal) and Honey (Sandy Dennis) are invited round for a nightcap, they witness a marathon of bickering and verbal abuse. The film won five Oscars, including Best Actress in a Leading Role (Taylor) and Best Actress in a Supporting Role (Dennis) and was nominated for a further eight.
This screening will finish at 20:36.
