June 29 2025 - Mr Burton (12A)
Join us for a screening of Mr Burton (12A) in the Screening Room on 29 June 2025 at 4PM.
Mr. Burton tells the true story of the relationship between Welsh schoolmaster Philip Burton and a wild young schoolboy called Richard Jenkins. The latter dreamed of becoming an actor, but his ambitions were in danger of being derailed by a combination of family trouble, the pressure of war, and his own lack of discipline. Mr. Burton recognised the raw talent in his pupil, and made it his mission to fight for him, becoming his tutor, strict taskmaster and eventually his adoptive father. Actor Burton would go on to be nominated for seven Oscars.
Run time: 2hr 4 minutes
