Back in 2012, a couple of film buff brothers had a thought - why isn’t there a local film club? Somewhere like-minded individuals with a passion for cinema could meet up and talk about their shared love. Shortly thereafter, We Watch Films was born.

We started having monthly meet ups at the cinema to watch the latest releases together and share in the the experience of watching movies on the big screen, as well as sharing some old favourites at home too. As those meetings grew from a small group of friends to strangers that became new friends, the home meet ups became harder to squeeze everyone into someone's front room around a TV. It was then we realised that there were no local cinemas showing classic movies on the big screen - so we began to organise them ourselves.

Since 2013 We Watch Films has been bringing classic movies back to the big screen every month, showcasing films that deserve to be seen back on the big screen. From Jaws to The Shawshank Redemption, Labyrinth to The Goonies (and many more), trying to put a little something in there for everyone.

As well as screening some great classic movies, we also host the free to enter BIG MOVIE QUIZ before each film, giving you the chance to test your movie general knowledge and making every #ClassicMovieMonday a fun night out for everyone!

Having started out at our sister cinema in Beverley, We Watch Films has grown so popular we thought we better bring it to Parkway Cinema Barnsley too! So why not see what we’ve got on this season with us and enjoy some of your favourite classic movies back on the big screen, where they belong!

Self-involved corporate raider Edward Lewis (Richard Gere) has recently split up with his girlfriend. Seeking directions to the Beverly Hills Hotel, he makes the acquaintance of free-spirited hooker Vivian Ward (Julia Roberts) and decides to put her on a 3,000-dollar retainer as his 'date', with a full wardrobe and cosmetic makeover. Of course, the setup will be strictly platonic. A disarming modern-day fairy tale, Pretty Woman was the picture that made Julia Roberts a superstar. As charming as she is in her 'giggling' sequences, Roberts' best scene is her triumphant return to a posh Rodeo Drive shop where she'd been previously snubbed. Keeping Pretty Woman afloat throughout is the buoyant direction of Garry Marshall and the always welcome presence of Marshall's stock company of actors, including Hector Elizondo as a stuffy but golden-hearted concierge.
