Based on the book by Robert M. Edsel, this is the stranger-thanfiction true story of a small platoon, commissioned by Roosevelt to go behind enemy lines and rescue works of art from the Nazis. Possibly the most unlikely task force ever assembled, the group of museum directors, curators and art historians nonetheless risked their lives to preserve a priceless heritage for posterity. The all-star cast includes George Clooney, Matt Damon, Bill Murray, John Goodman, Jean Dujardin (The Artist), Cate Blanchett and Hugh Bonneville.

The adventures of Gustave H, legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and Zero Moustafa, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for an enormous family fortune - all against the back-drop of a suddenly and dramatically changing Continent. The incredible star-studded cast includes Ralph Fiennes, Jude Law, Tilda Swinton, Bill Murray, Adrien Brody, Owen Wilson, Jason Schwartzman, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum, Tom Wilkinson and Harvey Keitel.

Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom (12A) Dir: Justin Chadwick, UK/South Africa, 2913, 146 mins

‘with the magnificent Elba to anchor it, the film gradually achieves a sort of grandeur, in the manner of the hero it depicts.’ The Guardian

A scorching adaptation of Tracy Letts’ Pulitzer Prize-winning stage play which assembles a wildly dysfunctional family back home in Oklahoma – and then stands by as they all let rip. Starring Meryl Streep (Oscar nominated), as the outrageously malicious mother, and Julia Roberts (Oscar and BAFTA nominated), outstanding as her oldest daughter, with Ewan McGregor, Chris Cooper, Benedict Cumberbatch, Abigail Breslin, Juliette Lewis and Sam Shepard.

Adapted from Nelson Mandela’s autobiography Long Walk to Freedom, this film chronicles the great man’s life journey from childhood in a rural village, through career as a fiery young lawyer, his political awakening, the 27-year imprisonment, and finally his inauguration as the first democratically elected president of South Africa.

Idris Elba (The Wire) stars as Mandela, with Naomie Harris as Winnie. Mandela is BAFTA nominated for Outstanding British Film.

Based on Solomon Northup’s memoir, this is the shocking story of a free man who is kidnapped and sold into slavery. For 12 years he struggles to stay alive and retain his dignity, until a chance meeting with a Canadian abolitionist (Brad Pitt) finally offers hope. This clear-eyed, unsentimental film won the Best Film Golden Globe, and has 12 BAFTA and 9 Oscar nominations, including best film, director, and best actor noms for Chiwetel Ejiofor (Solomon), Michael Fassbender and Lupita Nyong’o.

Based on the biography by Claire Tomalin, this is the beautifully told story of Charles Dickens’ secret love affair with the young Nelly Ternan.

Quite apart from Nelly’s Victorian scruples, both are very aware of the scandal that such a liaison would provoke, especially so with Dickens’ fame and Nelly’s youth.

Based on the prize-winning novel by Markus Zusak, this is the story of inadvertent book-thief Liesel (Sophie Nelisse), and how her life is enriched beyond measure by books and reading. In war-torn Germany, books are regarded as subversive, and Liesel courts danger by ‘borrowing’ books from the mayor’s library; then her foster family allows a young Jewish boy to hide in their basement; he shares her passion for books, but his presence puts them all in jeopardy…

With Geoffrey Rush and Emily Watson.
