Irrational Man Showing from Fri 11 Sep Woody Allen • USA 2015 • 1h36m • Digital • cert tbc Cast: Jamie Blackley, Joaquin Phoenix, Parker Posey, Emma Stone.
Woody Allen’s 45th feature sees him returning from continental Europe to the leafy collegiate environs of Rhode Island. Here, writer and newly-appointed professor Abe (Joaquin Phoenix) is in the midst of grappling with a long-standing bout of ennui - unable to write, uninterested in life and unhappy in his competing relationships with colleague Rita (Parker Posey) and brilliant student Jill (Emma Stone). But, after overhearing a passing conversation at a restaurant, Abe finds himself drawn down an unexpected path, leading him towards philosophical crises, hidden dangers and late-night games of Russian roulette...

Roger Waters The Wall
Andrew Haigh • UK 2014 •1h35m • Digital 15 - Contains strong language, sex. Cast: Charlotte Rampling, Tom Courtenay, Dolly Wells, Geraldine James.
Tue 29 Sep only
One of the best British films of the year, Andrew Haigh’s subtly devastating film is about the fractured relationship between a couple - delightfully played by Charlotte Rampling and Tom Courtenay - as they head towards their 45th wedding anniversary party. A powerful and enthralling follow-up to Haigh’s critically acclaimed 2011 film Weekend, the film (winner of the Michael Powell Award for Best British Feature Film at Edinburgh International Film Festival 2015) dwells on how an apparently happy union can be tormented by an echo from the past, with a decades-long bond threatened by insecurities and irrational jealousy.
Roger Waters & Sean Evans • UK 2014 • 2h15m • Digital English and French with English subtitles • cert tbc Cast: Concert film featuring Roger Waters, Nick Mason.
Roger Waters, co-founder and primary songwriter of Pink Floyd, fuses the epic and the personal in Roger Waters The Wall, a concert film that goes well beyond the stage. Based on the groundbreaking concept album, Roger Waters The Wall could be called a concept film: it’s a state-of-the-art show that dazzles the senses, combined with an intensely personal road trip that deals with the loss Roger has felt throughout his life due to war. After the film we will present The Simple Facts, a unique opportunity to see Roger Waters and his Pink Floyd bandmate Nick Mason - reunited, unscripted and in conversation, answering questions submitted by fans from around the world.
ALSO COMING SOON L’Eclisse A new restoration of Michelangelo Antonioni’s 1962 film, starring Monica Vitti and Alain Delon. Take One Action Film Festival The 8th Take One Action Film Festival promises yet another armful of the most inspiring new international films, debates and avenues for change for a better world. Mistress America Noah Baumbach’s second writing collaboration with Greta Gerwig (who also stars) is a smart, witty comedy drama about a disillusioned college student who is taken under the wing of her spontaneous soon-to-be stepsister.
