Tonight, October the 11th, within the court of the York Student Cinema 💥

I hope you, lovely reader, are a fan of sweat, because tonight you'll find yourself drenched by it with every other shot.

With a plot as intense as its soon-to-be academy award winning score, Challengers looks to bring uniformity to our week, combining Monday's Josh O'Connor with Thursday's throwback Guadagnino joint to bring to you a film with both of these things 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

As one legendary Letterboxd user once said, "everything is s*x, except s*x, which is tennis".

Feel free to come argue with me after the screening about whether Josh O'Connor is hotter in this or in La Chimera.

Challengers is rated a 15 for strong language, s*x and s*x references. For more information visit the BBFC website.
