Sit back and enjoy this gem of the silent era, starring the incomparable Buster Keaton and his locomotive (The General). When it’s stolen, he sets off in hot pursuit – cue the mother of all chases, a feast of slapstick, gags and spine-tinglingly dangerous stunts.
The Guardian (5 stars) Filmed over 12 years with the same cast, this extraordinary movie follows Mason from age 5 as he literally grows up on screen before our eyes. Ordinary family life is punctuated by the landmarks of childhood and adolescence, while all around him, just as in real life, time passes and things change. Both a nostalgic time capsule of the recent past and an ode to growing up and parenting. Starring Ellar Coltrane, with Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette as his parents.

When Chef Carl loses his restaurant job in circumstances which make him virtually unemployable, he’s more or less forced to start up his own business - in a food truck. The bonus is that he gets to rediscover his creative spark, and reconnect with his son. Fabulous foodie fun with plenty of laughs, starring Jon Favreau, Robert Downey Jr, Scarlett Johansson and Dustin Hoffman.
Ken Loach The USA is a magnet to the poor of South America, and its glittering promise lures three teenagers from Guatemala to make the epic and dangerous journey, hitching rides on freight trains and running the gauntlet of police and ruthless exploiters. Both gripping and moving, this prize-winning movie follows their fortunes; will they make it – and what awaits them, if they do?
