Double Murder in Earls Court

This July the newly launched Film Club, Scenery Chewer, will be hosting a screening of Hitchcock's 'Rope', followed by lost film noir classic, 'Hangover Square' in Earls Court.

The event will be a celebration of the playwright and novelist Patrick Hamilton.

An Earls Court resident, Hamilton wrote the screenplay for the Hitchcock classic starring James Stewart, as well as the novel 'Hangover Square', which was turned into a movie by John Brahm, director of the more well-known classic, 'The Lodger'. The film is set in Earls Court, a home for both Hitchcock and Hamilton at these points in their careers.

The event will run from 2pm to 8pm on Sunday July 13th at The Troubadour, and will see the screening of the two films, as well as other inspiring works.

The event is the result of a partnership between Scenery Chewer and the Earls Court Community Festival.
