Dirs. Eric Toledano & Olivier
Nakache, France, 2011,
112 mins, subtitles
François Cluzet, Omar Sy, Anne Le Ny
An irreverent, uplifting comedy about friendship, trust and human
possibility, Untouchable has broken box office records in its native
France and all across Europe. Based on a true story of friendship
between a disabled millionaire (Cluzet) and his street smart ex-con
caretaker (Omar Sy), Untouchable depicts an unlikely camaraderie
rooted in honesty and humour between two individuals who, on
the surface, would seem to have nothing in common.

In the mid 21st Century, time travel
has been invented but it is illegal and only available on the black
market. When the mob needs to get rid of someone, they send
their target 30 years into the past, where a ‘looper’, a hired gun
like Joe (Gordon-Levitt), is waiting to mop up. Joe is getting rich
and life is good... until the day the mob decides to “close the
loop,” sending back Joe’s future self (Willis) for assassination.

The third collaboration of
Keira (Knightley) with

Wright, following the awardwinning box office successes Pride & Prejudice and Atonement, is a bold,
theatrical new vision of the epic story of love, adapted from Tolstoy’s
timeless novel by Tom Stoppard. Set in late-19th-century Russia highsociety, the aristocrat Anna Karenina enters into a life-changing affair
with the affluent Count Vronsky (Johnson). The story powerfully
explores the capacity for love that surges through the human heart.

London’s foremost specialist in women’s medicine, and an expert in

When Aurora is hospitalised, she
sends her neighbour, Pilar, to pass
word of her grave condition to Gian Luca, a man of which no one has
ever heard her speak. Pilar’s quest to fulfil her friend’s wish transports us
to Africa fifty years earlier, where Aurora is involved in a forbidden love
affair with Gian Luca, her husband’s best friend. Their moving, poetic
tale is conveyed through the older Gian Luca’s suave voiceover,
combined with the lush, melodious sounds of its heady, tropical setting,
peppered with a soundtrack of Phil Spector songs.
‘A film that knows cinema inside out, and uses it to work pure magic...
If it isn’t the year’s best, I can’t wait to see what that might be.’ Tim

(The Proposition, The Road),

Jones, Steve Carell
Kay (Meryl Streep) and Arnold
(Tommy Lee Jones) are a

wanting to spice things up and
reconnect with her husband. When she hears of a renowned couple’s
specialist (Carell) in the small town of Great Hope Springs, she attempts
to persuade her sceptical husband, a steadfast man of routine, to get on
a plane for a week of marriage therapy. The real challenge for both of
them comes as they shed their bedroom hang-ups and try to re-ignite
the spark that caused them to fall for each other in the first place.

94 mins
Voices: Ray Romano, Denis
Leary, John Leguizamo
Scrat’s nutty pursuit of the
cursed acorn, which he’s
been after since the dawn
of time, has world-changing consequences - a continental cataclysm that
triggers the greatest adventure of all for Manny, Diego and Sid. In the
wake of these upheavals, Sid reunites with his cantankerous Granny, and
the herd encounters a ragtag menagerie of seafaring pirates determined
to stop them from returning home.

During his summer vacation,
‘Wimpy Kid’ Greg Heffley,
the hero of the
phenomenally successful
pre-teen book series,
hatches a plan to pretend he has a job at a ritzy country club - which fails
to keep him away from the season’s ‘dog days’, including embarrassing
mishaps at a public pool and a camping trip that goes horribly wrong...!
SAMSARA (12A)
Mon 8th October – For one night only

2011, 102 mins
Samsara reunites
director Ron Fricke and
producer Mark
Magidson, whose
award-winning films
Baraka and Chronos
were acclaimed for combining visual and musical artistry. Filmed over a
period of almost five years and in twenty-five countries, the film
transports us to sacred grounds, disaster zones, industrial sites, and
natural wonders. By dispensing with dialogue and descriptive text,
Samsara subverts our expectations of a traditional documentary, instead
encouraging our own inner interpretations inspired by images and music
that infuses the ancient with the modern.

To Rome with Love is
Woody Allen’s latest
kaleidoscopic comedy, set
in one of the world’s most
enchanting cities. The film
brings us into contact with
a would-be American architect (Baldwin) reliving his youth; an average
middle-class Roman (Benigni) who suddenly finds himself Rome’s
biggest celebrity; a young provincial couple drawn into separate
romantic encounters; and an American opera director (Allen)
endeavouring to put a singing mortician on stage.

The future America is an irradiated
waste land. On its East Coast lies
Mega City One, a vast, violent metropolis where criminals rule the
chaotic streets. The only force of order lies with the cops known as
‘Judges’ who possess the combined powers of judge, jury and instant
executioner. Known and feared throughout the city, Dredd (Urban) is
the ultimate Judge, challenged with ridding the city of its latest scourge,
a dangerous drug epidemic that has users of “Slo-Mo” experiencing
reality at a fraction of its normal speed. ‘Showing what the comic book
genre can be at its best.’ – Joe Walsh, Film4 ****

Golshifteh Farahani, Shahab Hosseini,
Taraneh Alidoosti
From Asghar Farhadi, director of the
Oscar-winning A Separation comes
another gripping and powerful tale of
secrets and lies… Sepideh is the young matriarch at the heart of a group
of old friends who are taking a trip to the coast. Tagging along for the
ride is Elly, a reserved and gentle soul who is blissfully unaware that
Sepideh has an ulterior motive for her invitation: the prospect of
matchmaking Elly with the recently divorced Ahmad. This small
deception on the part of Sepideh, while seemingly innocuous, is the
trigger that will ultimately lead to a shocking twist in the tale...

Welcome to the Hotel Transylvania,
Dracula’s (Sandler) lavish resort, where
monsters and their families can live it
up, free to be the monsters they are without humans to bother them. On
one special weekend, Dracula has invited some of the world’s most
famous monsters (Frankenstein and his bride, the Mummy, the Invisible
Man, a family of werewolves and more), to celebrate his daughter Mavis’
118th birthday. For Dracula, catering to all of these legendary monsters is
no problem, but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary
human stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis.

Ariane Ascaride, Jean-Pierre
Darroussin, Gérard Meylan
‘When trade unionist Michel
(Darroussin) and his wife Marie
Claire (Ascaride) have their
idyllic and selfless lives
shattered by a crime, they are
forced to take stock. Are their good deeds really good enough? Are the
criminals really all bad? This beautifully performed film earns all its
impressive emotional moments by following them as the couple try to
right themselves; it’s a thrill to see if their innate decency will prevail. It’s
made with a sure and steady hand that never takes shortcuts with its
important message.’ – Phelim O’Neill – The Guardian ****

in a day’s work for Wilee

New York’s agile and aggressive bicycle messengers. When Wilee picks
up his last envelope of the day on a premium rush run, he discovers this
