Final Flicks in the Sticks for this season at Knighton to show Mr Burton

The final Knighton Flicks in the sticks of the season will take place on Friday.

The film Mr Burton will be screened at Knighton Community Centre on Friday, May 8.

The film tells the inspiring story behind the early life of one of Britain’s most celebrated actors, Richard Burton, charting his journey from a Welsh mining town to international stardom, shaped by raw talent, determination, and the encouragement of a dedicated teacher.

It is directed by Marc Evans, written by Tom Bullough and Josh Hyams, and stars Harry Lawtey as Richard, alongside Toby Jones (as Philip Burton), and Lesley Manville.

It was released in British cinemas on April 4 2025.

Tickets are £6, offering a great night out at an affordable price.

Doors open at 7pm, with the café and bar open from 7pm, and the film starting at 7.30pm.

At half time, enjoy hotdogs (including plant-based options) along with freshly popped popcorn and drinks and refreshments from the cafe and bar.
