Coun Angela Taylor, who is a member of Ossett Town Centre Partnership, said: “The screening is a fantastic community event where the whole family can come along and spend the day in the precinct.

“People either come along for one film or spend the whole day at the event. We provide 200 chairs or people can bring their own.”

Five films will be shown on a big screen in the town precinct with seating for 200 people.

Film fans are also encouraged to bring chairs, blankets, rugs or a small tent.
