HI FILM FANS, Well, now we are in the middle of blockbuster season and we’ve already had some crackers! But there’s still loads more to come, including: MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: FALLOUT with Tom Cruise wowing audiences with his amazing stunts. Musical fans will be anticipating the return of MAMMA MIA: HERE WE GO AGAIN, the sequel to the biggest film that we’ve ever had at the Connaught. We are super excited for shark based nonsense THE MEG with Jason Statham.

The schools are off so there’s some great stuff for families with Pixar bringing back the Parr family for THE INCREDIBLES 2. Disney are releasing the delightful CHRISTOPHER ROBIN with a grown up Christopher Robin reuniting with his pals from the Hundred Acre Wood. Adam Sandler brings the monster gang back with HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA 3.

It’s not all crash, bang, wallop though. We have our usual standard of arthouse programming with Debra Granik’s follow up to Winter’s Bone LEAVE NO TRACE, British comedy SWIMMING WITH MEN, Gothic drama MARY SHELLEY and many more. We have some fab one-offs as well, like HEAT celebrating Robert De Niro’s birthday and the inimitable GREASE 2. Don’t miss the rare opportunity to see YELLOW SUBMARINE on the big screen.

Our Screen Arts programming has some outstanding content over the summer with Andre Rieu and Jonas Kaufmann. New seasons from the National Theatre & Glyndebourne, there’s something for everyone this summer.

MY PICK

Of the usual releases I am most excited for THE INCREDIBLES 2 and MISSION IMPOSSIBLE, oh and also LEAVE NO TRACE as I loved Winter’s Bone. For the one-offs, I am pretty pumped to see HEAT on the big screen again.

DIRECTOR Isabel Coixet | STARRING Emily Mortimer, Bill Nighy, Patricia Clarkson | SPECIFICATION (PG) UK

IF YOU LIKED...

2018. 113 Mins

SYNOPSIS A free spirited widow puts grief behind her and risks everything to open up a bookshop - the first such shop in the sleepy seaside town of Hardborough. Fighting local apathy she struggles to establish herself but soon her fortunes change for the better. By exposing the narrow minded local townsfolk to the best literature of the day, including Nabokov’s scandalizing “Lolita” and Ray Bradbury’s “Fahrenheit 451”, she opens their eyes thereby causing a cultural awakening in a town which has not changed for centuries. Although, not everyone is enamoured by her mini social revolution...

CHOCOLAT

BOOK CLUB

BUZZ A charming British film exploring the power of language and literature. With ever reliable actors, Bill Nighy as the paternal Mr Brundish and Patricia Clarkson as the hostile Mrs Gamart. Emily Mortimer excels as usual and the view of the nice safe English village is slowly peeled back.

THE HUNDRED FOOT JOURNEY

FROM

6 JULY

ADRIFT DIRECTOR Baltasar Kormakur | STARRING Shailene Woodley, Sam Claflin | SPECIFICATION (12A) USA 2018.

96 Mins

SYNOPSIS Based on the inspiring true story of two free spirits whose chance encounter leads them first to love, and then to the adventure of a lifetime. As the two avid sailors set out on a journey across the ocean, Tami Oldham and Richard Sharp couldn’t anticipate they would be sailing directly into one of the most catastrophic hurricanes in recorded history. Adrift is the unforgettable story about the resilience of the human spirit and the transcendent power of love.

BUZZ Something about a true story always appeals to us, and

this is no different. Sam Claflin has been tremendous recently in films such as THEIR FINEST, JOURNEY’S END and MY COUSIN RACHEL. An uplifting story with amazing technical skill from director Kormakur.

RACHEL

Business Admin Manager ‘I am excited to see another true life tale! I find films like this inspiring as they show human beings and their capacity for endurance and perseverance. I find this incredibly humbling and it always helps me put things in perspective. Plus, the sea is an equally exciting and terrifying place, the perfect setting for a heart-stopping adventure.’

DIRECTOR Haifaa al-Mansour | STARRING Elle Fanning, Maisie Williams, Joanne Froggatt | SPECIFICATION (12A)

IF YOU LIKED...

UK 2018. 121 Mins

SYNOPSIS The real life story of Mary Shelley - and the creation of her immortal monster - is nearly as fantastical as her fiction. Raised by a renowned philosopher father in 18th-century London, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin is a teenage dreamer determined to make her mark on the world. Marked by both passion and personal tragedy that transforms Mary and fuels the writing of her Gothic masterwork. Imbued with the imaginative spirit of its heroine, Mary Shelley brings to life the world of a trailblazing woman who defied convention and channelled her innermost demons into a legend for the ages.

MISERY

THE LIMEHOUSE GOLEM

BUZZ A fascinating look at the life of Mary Shelley, exploring

many angles that most people will not be aware of. A great cast including GAME OF THRONES Maisie Williams, sell the Gothic story brilliantly and Douglas Booth is also great as the author’s lover, poet Percy Shelley. But Elle Fanning dominates the film in the title role.

PETE’S DRAGON

BUZZ We are really excited for this drama from WINTER’S

BONE director Debra Granik. Filmed in the beautiful surroundings of the forests of Portland, Oregon. Actor Ben Foster has been knocking our socks off for years but was particularly good in HELL OR HIGH WATER and HOSTILES. He’s already being tipped for nominations for this role as a disaffected soldier caring for his daughter. Surprisingly touching and emotional at its core.

IF YOU LIKED...

THE FULL MONTY

BUZZ This is the sort of comedy that Brits do really well. Funny but with a lot of emotion leaving you sincerely caring about the characters. Rob Brydon is hilarious as the central character amongst a cast of recognisable British faces like Jane Horrocks, Thomas Turgoose, Daniel Mays and Charlotte Riley.

Feel-good comedy to warm the hardest heart.

It’s a tough transition for everyone, made tougher by the fact that the family is still unaware of baby Jack-Jack’s emerging superpowers. When a new villain hatches a brilliant and dangerous plot, the family and Frozone must find a way to work together again—which is easier said than done, even when they’re all Incredible.

As Ethan Hunt takes it upon himself to fulfill his original briefing, the CIA begins to question his loyalty and his motives. Hunt finds himself in a race against time, hunted by assassins and former allies while trying to prevent a global catastrophe.

BUZZ As always, a new MISSION IMPOSSIBLE film arrives with

news of the crazy stunts that Tom Cruise has performed! This one is no different but also looks like a great story utilising a great villain in Sean Harris. McQuarrie returns again as director and has really put his own stamp on this franchise pushing each entry to be better than the last.

SPOTLIGHT Tom Cruise has been performing crazy Mission Impossible stunts for over 10 years. The big stunt in this instalment involves a HALO jump from a plane at 25,000ft falling at speeds of 200mph whilst trying to revive an unconscious agent. Sounds thrilling!

Little do they know that his “too good to be true” love interest is actually a descendant of Abraham Van Helsing, ancient nemesis to Dracula and all other monsters!

Believed to have been extinct for more than a million years, the Carcharodon Megalodon - the largest marine predator that ever existed - is still alive and on the hunt!

BUZZ Creature features can be great fun as long as they don’t

take themselves too seriously - the presence of Jason Statham suggests that they haven’t! The trailer really sells this as a silly, entertaining romp - or chomp! - through the high seas with amazing effects and a witty script. Rainn Wilson looks particularly fun as the comic relief.

SHEILA

Admin Assistant I cannot wait for this film. A deep water shark adventure, except not a Great White, but a huge Megaladon!

Facing off against Jason Statham in his science lab, obviously… The special effects in the trailer look great. A reel big fish romp, chomp chomp.

Determined to make a name for himself, he bravely sets out to infiltrate and expose the Ku Klux Klan. Recruiting a seasoned colleague into his scheme, they team up to tackle the extremist hate group.

BUZZ Spike Lee has injected a sense of fun and enjoyment

into what could have been a really serious, dry story. The cast looks fantastic with the two leads Adam Driver and John David Washington standing out. Exploring an amazing slice of history that seems too crazy to be true, this promises to be an enlightening and explosive film.

STEVE

Marketing Officer Nothing beats a film based on a true story, and this action packed comical masterpiece has been put together by visionary director Spike Lee and is produced by the team behind the Academy Award-winning film Get Out.
