Tuesday 17 March 2026 at 8pm (doors open 7.30pm) at Haddenham Village Hall I SWEAR (15) 120 mins Director: Kirk Jones Starring: Robert Aramayo, Peter Mullen, Maxine Peake Synopsis: Scottish setting, true life story of John Davidson. Diagnosed with Tourette's at 15, targeted as 'insane' by his peers, he struggled with a condition few had witnessed. Campaigning for better understanding and acceptance of the condition of Tourette's as an adult, he finds his life's purpose and accepted his MBE from the Queen in 2019. Awards: Two 2026 BAFTA wins and three nominations Reviews: "All flaws are overcome by Aramayo’s technically precise and heart-rending turn. It’s astonishing." **** TIMES "I Swear happily adheres to the British cinematic tradition of small town underdog stories, without ever hijacking and streamlining Davidson’s experiences to maximise its “feel-good” credentials." **** INDEPENDENT "This is an absorbing, compassionate film." **** GUARDIAN "It is a drama with three-dimensional people, facing three-dimensional problems and dealing with them... I absolutely loved it." Mark Kermode (BBC Radio) "The writer-director, Kirk Jones (Waking Ned, Nanny McPhee) has sculpted this to provide an education – it’s unflashy directing with an ordinary look, and a few clichés in tow. But his handling of the cast is top-to-bottom impeccable." **** TELEGRAPH "Empathetic, funny and myth-busting, it gives you permission to laugh at the situation while feeling only compassion for the man." **** TIME OUT |
