Win a pair of tickets to attend the preview screening of Amazing Grace at the Lighthouse Cinema
The Irish Times and Studiocanal are giving you the chance to win one of five pairs of tickets to the preview screening of Amazing Grace at the Lighthouse cinema accompanied by a drinks reception on Thursday, May 2nd.
In 1971, Aretha Franklin, the undisputed Queen of Soul, brought producer Jerry Wexler, her backup singers, and the legendary Atlantic Records rhythm section to The New Temple Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles to record an album of gospel music before an enthusiastic live audience. The result, “Amazing Grace”, went on to become one of the biggest albums of Aretha Franklin’s career and one of her most beloved works. Even as the album gained fans around the world, few realized that those inspirational sessions had not only been recorded, they had been filmed by a camera crew led by Oscar winning filmmaker Sydney Pollack. Due to technical problems the film has never been seen. Never until now.
Amazing Grace is in cinemas for general release Friday, May 10th
To be in with a chance to win a pair of tickets, simply answer the competition question below:
