Winona Forever @ Howler

Said to be one of 90s’ most iconic actresses, Winona Ryder visits Brunswick from the 7th to the 9th of June! Well, maybe not literally, but Brunswick’s coolest warehouse bar, Howler brings you the next best thing; three nights of the films that made you fall in love with Winona.
Kick-starting Thursday the 7th of June is Reality Bites, followed by Edward Scissorhands on Friday the 8th and finishing with the option between Mermaids and Heathers on Saturday the 9th. A 7:30 start on both Thursday and Friday with Mermaids at 5:30 on Saturday and Heathers at 9:15, so there’s a sneaky option to do a back-to-back if you’re a real fan!
It’s a beanbag cinema, so it’s exactly like a movie night at home with friends, except at Melbourne’s top venue for arts and entertainment with amazing drinks and food.
