Its lucky its dark in the cinema.... but they can still hear you sob.

A work colleague took me to a wonderful film last night, at the old art deco Orpheum theatre in Cremorne. She had a double pass to the event, which was being held because this film, As it is in Heaven, is now the longest running, highest grossing film in the cinema’s 75 year history.

It’s the story of an internationally renowned conductor who is forced to take a break from his career and returns to the village that he left in his youth. He gets involved with the village choir and what transpires is just the most life-affirming tear-jerking laugh-provoking, heart-breaking story. I stood up and clapped at the end. So did everyone else. I don’t do that regularly at the movies! If you get a free night, I recommend a trip to Cremorne.
