Calendar Girls
Summer Comedy: "CALENDAR GIRLS"
Juliette Towhidi and Tim Firth; Directed by Randy Powell
Middle aged Chris Harper and Annie Clarke are best friends. They spend much of their time at their local Knapely, Yorkshire County chapter of the Womens Institute (WI), whose motto is enlightenment, fun and friendship. Although they like most of the women at the WI (the friendship part), they find much of what goes on there, especially the monthly presentations, banal and devoid of enlightenment and fun. Equally as banal was last years fund-raising calendar, featuring local bridges, whuch raised a meager sum.
When Annies husband John dies of leukemia, she and best friend Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. They manage to persuade four fellow WI members to pose nude with them for an alternative calendar. The news of the womens charitable venture spreads like wildfire, and hordes of press soon descend on the small village. The calendar is a success, but Chris and Annies friendship is put to the test under the strain of their new-found fame. Based on a true story.
