When Jackie met Harry

It's January 31st, 1931, and you're going to the Cinema. It's the Gaumont British Cinematograph Theatre on Cattlemarket Street, Loughborough at the heart of England. You're the guest of honour, as you - and your dad - inspired the movie that is to be screened today. It's both the story of Harry and of the town where you were born.

3D and 6D Pictures Ltd. present a Paul Seaton film, distributed by WWW Group Ltd.

In HD direct to your Ipad thanks to some incredible HTML5 technology, we're proud to present Part 1 of Harry Leon and the Art of Noel,
which has the working title When Jackie met Harry.

Bring your own Covid-safe popcorn. The film is best served with a Martini ... and a handkerchief. Enjoy!
