Dementia Friendly Film Screening: The Odd Couple

Thursday 23 January | 11am | £5 (includes tea/coffee & biscuits) 

Dir: Gene Saks | 1968 | 101 Mins | Certificate PG

Neil Simon’s classic stage comedy made an effortless transition to the big screen in 1967, when ‘The Odd Couple’ provided Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau with a tailor-made mid-career affirmation of their status as two of cinema’s greatest funny men. 

Lemmon is Felix, manically obsessed with cleanliness and housekeeping, struggling to understand why his wife wants a divorce. Matthau is Oscar, his slovenly poker-playing buddy who invites him to take the spare room and lives to regret it as they rapidly and comically come to grief like an old, totally incompatible, married couple! 

Our dementia friendly screenings are open to all, but have been tailored with care, attention and insight, to be accessible for people living with dementia. 

This event will take place in our studio theatre with an unreserved, cabaret-style seating layout.
