PAUL Giamatti takes to the big screen in Gullane Village Hall on Saturday.

The Holdovers is a Christmas comedy-drama that is being shown by Little Big Screen.

A curmudgeonly instructor at a New England school remains on campus during the Christmas break.

He soon forms an unlikely bond with a brainy but damaged troublemaker and with the school’s cook, a woman who just lost her son in the Vietnam War.

Doors open at 7.30pm, with the film getting under way half an hour later.

No tickets are required – donation on the door.
