About this event

Film & Media • Film

Imaginary friend - real friendship. A cult classic for the VHS generation. Rik Mayall stars as the titular character Drop Dead Fred, the imaginary best childhood friend of Lizzie Cronan, who returns when she needs him most.

With elements of comic slapstick and fantasy, superficially this is a vehicle for Rik Mayll’s chaotic comedy style to reach the big screen but delve a little deeper and we have the story of a woman who needs to break free from the controlling influence of her slimy husband and stepford-like mother…
