Win Invictus Hampers1 comment

10 March!

Back in cinemas for one day only, the Oscar nominated Invictus, starring Morgan Freeman, Matt Damon and directed by Clint Eastwood.

Directed by four-time Oscar^® winner Clint Eastwood (“Million Dollar Baby,” “Unforgiven”), the film stars Oscar^® winners Morgan Freeman (“Million Dollar Baby,” “The Dark Knight”) and Matt Damon (“Good Will Hunting,” the “Bourne” franchise),

“Invictus” tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) joined forces with the captain of South Africa’s rugby team (Damon) to help unite their country.  Newly elected President Mandela knows his nation remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid.  Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africa’s underdog rugby team as they make an unlikely run to the 1995 World Cup Championship match.
