Bond Star's New Film Preview

Fans of Bond actor Daniel Craig can get a sneak preview of his new film Flashbacks of a Fool in a special early screening in which all proceeds go to Tommy's, the baby charity.

In association with Empire Cinemas and Miramax Films, the screenings takes place on Thursday 17th April at 6pm for a 6.30pm start at the Empire Cinema Basildon - Festival Leisure Park. Normal ticket prices apply.

Bookings can be made in person at the box office or on line at www.EmpireCinemas.co.uk or by calling 08 714 714 714 (booking fees apply.) Every penny of the admission price goes towards funding Tommy's vital research into finding the causes of miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth.

Right now in the UK 1 in 4 women will lose a baby during pregnancy or birth, by 2030 Tommy's aims to halve this number and make sure more babies have the best chance of being born healthy. "This a great chance for cinema goers to see a new film before it can be glimpsed anywhere else and to support Tommy's into the bargain," said Tommy's Chief Executive Jane Brewin. "We're absolutely committed to improving those horrible statistics, but we need your help to do it."

The film (certificate 15) is directed by Bailie Walsh. As well as Craig it also stars Helen McCrory (Interview with the Vampire) and Olivia Williams (The Sixth Sense). It tells the story of a fading but handsome Hollywood star Joe Scot, whose hedonistic lifestyle of sex, drugs, and celebrity has taken its toll.

The story flashes back 25 years to Joe's rites of passage as a young man in a tiny British seaside community, which lay the foundations for the Hollywood dream he goes on to experience.

Back in the present day, Joe returns to England for the funeral of an old friend. Once there, he must face the ghosts of his past; his family, his friends and his first love, Ruth.
