Film Showing with Introduction by Patrick Vernon
Friday 8 May 2009, 7pm @ The Nettlefold Hall
A documentary film charting the life of Eddie Martin Noble (1917-2007), it examines personal historical perspectives on issues around colonisation of the Caribbean and racial inequality in post-war Britain.
The film raises issues of the legacy of the Windrush Generation in Britain as Eddie, a RAF Pilot, comes to terms with a post war reality.
In this fascinating film, the story of Eddie Noble becomes a story for us all and inspired the book Small Island by Andrea Levy.
Join Director Patrick Vernon as he introduces ‘A Charmed Life’.
