 College student Jeffrey Beaumont returns home after his father has a stroke. When he discovers a severed ear in an abandoned field, Beaumont teams up with detective's daughter Sandy Williams to solve the mystery. They believe beautiful lounge singer Dorothy Vallens may be connected with the case, and Beaumont finds himself becoming drawn into her dark, twisted world, where he encounters sexually depraved psychopath Frank Booth.


It's time for Britannica's annual Pub Quiz! On Tuesday the 21st of April, come test your knowledge of various topics among good company while having drinks and snacks! Do you know as much as you think you do when it comes to movies, music and sports? We've got a wide array of trivia questions waiting for you!  More information can be found here.



We would also like to thank everyone who came by our table at Kåren during Specialföreningsmässan! A lot of people came by to try out our game of matching the correct famous movie lines with their corresponding images. This picture was posted on our official Instagram account, which you can  follow at britannica.rf on Instagram if you haven't already!

Britannica goes Paddington

Britannica's inofficial mascot Paddington has come to the cinemas and naturally we want to go and watch his adventures together! We have booked 15 tickets for the screening in Finnkino on Monday. You'll find all the information you need, and a sign-up sheet, right here!

The event in short:
WHAT? "Paddington" at the cinema
WHERE? Finnkino Åbo, Kauppiaskatu 11
WHEN? Monday 19th January, 17:15 (movie starts at 18:10)
HOW MUCH? ~9,30€ with student card (10,30€ without)

Also, note our little "special offer": if you haven't got Britannica's standard Paddington overall patch yet, this is your chance to buy it at a special price! It normally costs 3€, but during the cinema event you can buy one for 2€. If you want a patch, remember to indicate it on the sign-up sheet, and bring 2€ in cash to the movie. Please avoid the 20€ bills as we won't have large amounts of change with us!

THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT FILM CLUB PRESENTS: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

We are happy to announce that the film club will be screening Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind on Tuesday 4th of Feb at 17.15 in Helikon, Arken. Britannica will be serving snacks for the bargain price of 1 €.

Eternal Sunshine is directed by the wonderful Michel Gondry and is regarded as a quirky classic of the 00's. My personal opinion is that it truly is a gem of coolness, a fantastical portrait of love and the mysteries of the mind. Check out the trailer here.

 
 


See you Tuesday!
