The Shooting Party is a 1984 British drama film directed by Alan Bridges set in 1913 and starring James Mason
It is 1913, shortly before the outbreak of World War I. A group of English aristocrats have gathered at the estate of Sir Randolph Nettleby (James Mason) for a weekend “shoot.” The men will demonstrate their masculinity in the fields by firing at fowl flying overhead. The women will walk in the garden, exchange bits of gossip, and look forward to the evening dinner when they can dress in their finest.
A rare film screening of this feature released 40 years ago which also was the last film released with James Mason
Light refreshments will be available before the film commences
To Book: Tickets (£6.00) can be booked in advance via WegotTickets website search for Wyndham Hall Taunton.
