It's time to go home (2)







Last night in Brighton. Finally I've met a primary teacher. Her name's Poppy. Finally I visited a school with pupils. Unexpectable. It was in Camden, north London. It was in the Duke of York's, the oldest cinema in England. Happy-go-Lucky by Mike Leigh. Le Bouquet final. J'ai adoré le film. J'ai pu évaluer mes progrès en anglais. J'ai encore du pain sur la planche. J'ai souvent décroché quand Poppy est avec ses copines à "chatter" mais le film était excellent. L'école de Poppy n'a rien à voir avec la Durand school.
La leçon de Flamenco et les leçons de conduite sont du pur bonheur.
HAPPY-GO-LUCKY

un extrait du film justement la leçon de flamenco ( enjoy yourself !)


The very last word of the very last evening is : HAPPY GO LUCKY (insouciante)


About The Duke of York's ( from Wikipedia)

The Duke of York's Picture House is an art house cinema in Brighton, England. Opened in 1910, it is the oldest continuously operating cinema in Britain.[1]

Built on the old site of a brewery, it borrows its name from the Duke of York's Theatre in London, which was built by the same person.

It houses one single screen with over 300 seats, plus a small balcony, accessed from the café/bar, and which can be booked privately. It originally seated over 800, but modifications have been made to the inside of the building to create the café/bar upstairs, a concession space downstairs, and to allow for greater comfort.

Giant model legs painted to appear like those of a "Can Can" dancer rest on one of the towers on the front of the building. These came from the "Not The Moulin Rouge Theatre" in Oxford, and were commissioned by one of the cinema's previous managers.

Moi, je partage l'avis de l'artiste. Les photos sont belles et on sent l'Angleterre jusque dans la taille de ce frasier absolutly gorgeous, mais... je ne comprends rien et c'est frustrant!M-C
