Funny Face

U

This is a Memory Matinees screening, designed to help those living with dementia enjoy the magic of cinema.   

Inconspicuous bookshop clerk Jo (Audrey Hepburn) is swept into the glamourous fashion world when her workplace is turned into the backdrop for a photo shoot with esteemed photographer Dick Avery (Fred Astaire) and her potential as the next big thing is realised. 

Initially skeptical of the model life style deeming it shallow and silly, Jo soon changes her mind when a trip to Paris and the opportunity to meet her intellectual hero are thrown in the bargain.  But whether it's the grandeur of Paris or the custom couture gowns she's dressed in, the photographer and the model soon find themselves falling in love.
