Harry Prior behind the camera

The 90 pupils from Frank Wise Special School in Hornbeam Close are starring in their own film, Frankie Wise Goes to Hollywood, being screened at The Mill in Banbury.

Pictured filming his friends for the movie is Harry Prior.

The children, aged two to 16, spent several weeks creating, acting, filming on location and editing the film which explores screen history through the ages with silent movies, musicals, and sci-fi themes.

The film is to be screened on December 17, at 10.30am, 1.45pm, 4.45pm and 7.30pm.

Tickets for the 10.30am and 1.45pm screenings are free but are nearly all gone.
