Luna Winter Cinema: Elf (PG)

Come and experience the birthplace of Queen Victoria in an entirely new way…

Step foot into the warm cosy Pavillion, on the orangery lawn, bedecked in Christmas attire for a festive film experience like no other. We’re screening just about every heart-warming, chestnut-roasting, cheesy Christmas classic there is, from Elf to Home Alone, It’s A Wonderful Life to The Muppet’s Christmas Carol, and everything in between! Throw in mulled wine, minced pies, and a stunning festive setting (think twinkly lights and snow-dusted trees!) and you’ve got yourself a merry little Christmas…

If you’re in the need of some festive cheer this Christmas, then it has to be Elf! After finding out he’s human, adopted elf Buddy heads to New York – where everyone he meets is in serious need of some festive fun. Celebrate the joy of the season as Will Ferrell reminds us all that Christmas is not just for kids! And remember, the best way to spread Christmas cheer is…

Buddy (Will Ferrell) was accidentally transported to the North Pole as a toddler and raised to adulthood among Santa’s elves. Unable to shake the feeling that he doesn’t fit in, the adult Buddy travels to New York, in full elf uniform, in search of his real father. As it happens, this is Walter Hobbs (James Caan), a cynical businessman. After a DNA test proves this, Walter reluctantly attempts to start a relationship with the childlike Buddy with increasingly chaotic results.
