At the last Transmissions of the year, we finally give in to some kind of seasonal theme in earnest with a screening of Nancy Meyers' iconic, syrupy Christmas rom-com The Holiday (2006), starring Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz as romantically frustrated houseswappers who fall ridiculously into the arms of Jack Black and Jude Law (respectively) over the course of their stays in each other's homes.
Delightfully cringey and yet occasionally affecting (Jude Law crying in the cottage, anyone?), The Holiday feels like just the recipe for those of you hungry for a getaway from December's inevitable stress and busy social calendar.
Find us downstairs at Dalston Superstore for this festive screening of a terrible masterpiece, and enjoy some candy canes on us.
Come for the beautifully smooth-brained romance, stay for Cameron Diaz being the world's biggest mood, and a wild cameo from Lindsay Lohan.
As always, Transmissions centres its majority trans audience before anyone
else, so while all are welcome at our one-off Santa Slay, remember who it's
for and move with love.
You're supposed to be the leading lady in your own life, for God's sake!
Subtitles will be displayed throughout.
Seating is a mixture of benches, chairs, bar stools, and floor space, and is first come first served.
