£313 raised from the screening of ‘Saturday Night and Sunday Morning’ at Antenna.
James K Walker of Nottingham’s indispensible LeftLion magazine was the driving force behind the event.
James gives an evocative account of the evening on his blog:
“Friday night saw Antenna host their biggest event to date as just over a hundred people came to celebrate the life of Alan Sillitoe. For the fundraising event, we showed ‘Saturday Night and Sunday Morning’ on an enormous screen, a Q&A with Nicola Monaghan and David Sillitoe and music from Blue Yonder who we’ve shoehorned into events due to their Arthur Seaton-inspired song ‘Propaganda’. I can’t emphasise how proud it felt to see so many people, particularly given that most would have seen the film countless times before.”
