Ry Cooder and Wim Wenders have known each other for decades and worked together on the feature films Paris Texas and The End of Violence.

This time Wenders and a small film crew accompanied Cooder to Cuba, to record the members of that old club, musicians who had started out playing in what is now a dilapidated old house in Havana, which once resounded to their fabulous music.

Nominated for an Oscar®.

For the last 40 years, the photographer Sebastião Salgado has been travelling through the continents, in the footsteps of an ever-changing humanity. He has witnessed some of the major events of our recent history; international conflicts, starvation and exodus. He is now embarking on the discovery of pristine territories, of wild fauna and flora, and of grandiose landscapes as part of a huge photographic project, which is a tribute to the planet’s beauty.

“Photographer Sebastião Salgado’s images on the big screen are a visual gift…

Salgado, when we first see him here, could be John Ford looking out over the plains.”

Anne-Katrin Titze, Eye For Film

THE NEW GIRLFRIEND

France.2014. Director: François Ozon. Cast: Romain Duris, Anaïs Demoustier, Raphaël Personnaz, Isild Le Besco. Duration: 1hr.45mins. Cert: 15. Language: French with English subtitles A young woman being dressed as a bride for her funeral is the opening scene in this quirky tale of love, loss and attraction from director François Ozon.

Claire is devoted to childhood friend Laura, so when Laura dies soon after childbirth, Claire vows to take care of her devastated husband David and infant daughter. What she’s not prepared for is the discovery that David’s way of easing his grief involves a highly creative use of his late wife’s wardrobe.

“Ozon has never been interested in handing his audiences conclusions on a plate and it seems particularly pertinent here that the ultimate destination of his characters depends on each viewer’s perspective.”

Amber Wilkinson, Eye For Film

USA.2014. Director(s): Richard Glatzer, Wash Westmoreland.

Cast: Julianne Moore, Alec Baldwin, Kate Bosworth, Kristen Stuart. Duration: 1hr.41mins. Cert: 12 Alice Howland, happily married with three grown children, is a renowned linguistics professor.

Her struggle to stay connected to who she once was is frightening, heartbreaking and inspiring.

“Julianne Moore gives the performance of her career.”

THE CANAL

Ireland.2014. Director: Ivan Kavanagh. Cast: Rupert Evans, Antonia Campbell-Hughes, Hannah Hoekstra, Kelly Byrne, Steve Oram. Duration: 1hr.32mins.

This is an ominous and apt introduction, not only to the ghost story that will follow, but also to the film’s look backward at the disappearing forms of its own medium.

“Tense family drama becomes mind-bending nightmare.”

8 NOVEMBER FILMS

Alley – Tim “Nailer” Foley, an American veteran, heads a small paramilitary group called Arizona Border Recon, whose goal is to stop Mexico’s drug wars from seeping across our border. Cartel Land is a chilling meditation on the breakdown of order and the blurry line between good and evil.

“If you thought Breaking Bad was terrifying, wait until you see the real drug war.”

Esquire

From the director of Tomboy and Water Lilies comes the critically acclaimed Girlhood, an intimate portrait of female friendship and a compelling coming-of-age story. Oppressed by her family setting, dead-end school prospects and the boys’ law in the neighbourhood, Marieme starts a new life after meeting a group of three free-spirited girls. She changes her name, her style, and quits school to be accepted in the gang, hoping that this will be a way to freedom. As she falls further under their gang lifestyle, she begins to make foolish choices that could impact her life forever.

“One of the best coming-of-age movies in years.”

by Agnes’ driven but by now penurious mother.

BUTTERCUP BILL TUESDAY 10 NOVEMBER @ 8PM

USA.2014. Director: Remy Bennett, Émilie Richard-Froozan. Cast: Remy Bennett, Evan Louison. Duration: 1hr.36mins. Cert: 18

UK/USA.2015. Director: Asif Kapadia. Cast: Amy Winehouse, Mitch Winehouse, Mark Ronson, Tony Bennett, Pete Doherty, Blake Fielder-Civil, Yeslin Bey. Duration: 2hrs.8mins. Cert: 15

A twisted romance in America’s deep south, Buttercup Bill follows mutually obsessed friends struggling to find something like love beneath the wreckage of a broken past.

After the suicide of a childhood playmate, Pernilla loiters in the seedy underbelly of New York’s nightlife until she calls on estranged Patrick and arrives on the doorstep of his isolated Louisiana cabin. Shut in there together, surrounded by the peeling walls of Southern religion and the bottle, they re-light what they once had.

What is at first innocent and playful gives way to cruel games of sexual jealousy as

AMY

This poignant documentary paints an intimate portrait of Amy Winehouse the troubled singer/songwriter who died in 2011 at the age of just 27. Charting her meteoric rise to fame, the film celebrates Amy’s short yet eventful career, reminding the audience that she was a highly talented artist with a unique voice, as well as tabloid fodder.

“Kapadia lays bare the tragedy of Winehouse’s story. It’s a tough, unfiltered watch but a thoughtful, thorough, feeling one.”

Kevin Harley, Total Film “Heartbreaking, moving and emotionally challenging, Amy is one of those rare documentaries that strikes a chord after the credits have finished.”

Katie Wong, Sound On Sight

the pair attempt to reconcile a terrible secret that haunts them both. With a breakthrough performance from lead and co-director Remy Bennett, Buttercup Bill is a stylish, provocative and unflinching portrayal of infatuation tarnished with guilt.

“A unique kind of cinema: extremely personal, invariably independent, and fiercely imaginative.” Aesthetica Magazine

Czechoslovakia.1968. Director: Eduard Grecner. Cast: Radovan Lukavský, Viliam Polónyi, Emília Vásáryová. Duration: 1hr.22mins. Cert: 15. Language: Slovak, Czech with English subtitles One of the most exciting discoveries in Slovak cinema, Eduard Grecner’s Dragon’s Return is an elemental ballad of love, hatred, revenge and desire. A reclusive potter, Martin Lepi – nicknamed ‘Dragon’ – returns to his isolated community years after being wrongly accused of a crime, punished and shunned by his village. His return immediately engenders an atmosphere of suspicion, fear and simmering violence.

Grecner’s hauntingly poetic film is also a revealing account of peasant life in a world isolated from history and the mainstream of socio-political events.

MARSHLAND (LA ISLA MÍNIMA) Spain.2014. Director: Alberto Rodríguez. Cast: Javier Gutiérrez, Raúl Arévalo, María Varod. Duration: 1hr.45mins. Cert: 15. Language: Spanish with English subtitles Spain’s deep south, 1980. In a small village frozen in time, a serial killer has caused the disappearance of several adolescents. But, when two young sisters disappear during the annual festivities, their mother forces an investigation that brings two homicide detectives from Madrid to try and solve the mystery. The detectives are ensnared in a web of intrigue fed by the apathy and introverted nature of the locals. Nothing is what it seems in this isolated region and both men realise they must put aside their professional differences if they are to stop the person responsible.

Nominated for 17 Goya awards and winner of 10, including Best Director, Best Original Screenplay and Best Film.

“Rodriguez crafts a brilliant, compelling edge-of-your-seat detective thriller infused with a spirit of uncanny gothic redolent of David Lynch and David Fincher.”

Maria Delgado, Sight & Sound

WEDNESDAY 9 DECEMBER @ 8PM

CLASSIC FILM: THE PANIC IN NEEDLE PARK USA.1971. Director: Jerry Schatzberg. Cast: Al Pacino, Kitty Winn, Alan Vint, Richard Bright, Kiel Martin. Duration: 1hr.45mins. Cert: 18 Al Pacino’s second movie, and the one that led to his role in The Godfather, was originally banned in the UK because of its stark, raw portrayal of heroin addiction in New York. This hard-hitting drama follows lost soul Helen (Kitty Winn) as she descends into the world of drug addiction. Following an illegal botched abortion, Helen has a chance meeting with petty crook Bobby (Al Pacino). The pair fall in love and soon Helen becomes caught up in Bobby’s world of heroin addiction in Manhattan’s Needle Park.

Surrounded by prostitution,

overdoses and the panic of a major drug bust, the young couple must endure the storm of their bleak existence.

Kitty Winn received Best Actress Award at 1971 Cannes Film Festival.

“A gruelling but highly responsible film about the influence of heroin on a New York street romance.”

Time Out

Italy/France.1962. Director: Michelangelo Antonioni. Cast: Alain Delon, Monica Vitti, Francisco Rabal, Mirella Ricciardi, Lilla Brignone.

Duration: 2hrs.4mins. Cert: PG. Language: Italian with English subtitles The third in Antonioni’s trilogy of films about the fragility of relationships in the contemporary world, the monochrome L’Eclisse unfolds in early ‘60’s Rome, where a translator Vittoria (Monica Vitta) breaks up with her lover and begins a tentative affair with her mother’s dashing stockbroker Piero (Alain Delon). The plot is minimal: what’s remarkable here is how Antonioni creates and maintains the atmosphere of alienation, and the striking performances from the leading actors. The final shot remains one of the greatest endings in cinema.

“Languorous, mysterious and quite fascinating.”

After nearly four decades together, Ben and George finally tie the knot in an idyllic wedding ceremony in lower Manhattan. But when George loses his job soon after, the couple must sell their apartment and – victims of the relentless New York City real estate market – temporarily live apart until they can find an affordable new home. While George moves in with two cops who live downstairs, Ben lands in Brooklyn with his nephew, his wife, and their teenage son, with whom Ben must share a bunk bed. While struggling with

LONDON ROAD

the pain of separation, Ben and George are further challenged by the intergenerational tensions and capricious family dynamics of their new living arrangements.

“The best film of the year.”

Vanity Fair “Most of all it’s a film about love – love that’s a little frayed around the edges sometimes but straightforward, funny and true.”

Sight & Sound

A kind of baby Belle De Jour, François Ozon’s character study is a detailed, mesmerising slow burn. Played out in four seasonal chapters, the movie follows 17 year-old Isabelle (Marine Vacth) from losing her virginity to a random young German to becoming a techsavvy call girl whose secret life is then exposed in dramatic ways the audience will not see coming.

“There is an ephemeral quality to Young & Beautiful that makes it seem as if it’s evaporating as you watch it.”

Keith Uhlich, Time Out New York

WEDNESDAY 16 DECEMBER @ 8PM

WILD

USA.2014. Director: Jean-Marc Vallée. Cast: Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern, Thomas Sadoski, Gaby Hoffman. Duration: 1hr.55mins. Cert: 15 Following the dissolution of her marriage and the death of her mother, Cheryl Strayed has lost all hope. After years of reckless behaviour, a heroin addiction and the destruction of her marriage, Cheryl Strayed makes a rash decision. Haunted by memories of her mother Bobbi and with absolutely no experience, she sets out to hike more than a thousand miles on the Pacific Crest Trail all on her own.

Nominated for 2 Oscars®.

London Road documents the events of 2006, when the quiet rural town of Ipswich was shattered by the discovery of the bodies of five women.

The residents of London Road had struggled for years with frequent soliciting and kerb crawling on their street.

When a local resident was charged and then convicted of the murders, the community grappled with what it meant to be at the epicentre of this tragedy.

“Utterly gripping. A unique triumph.”

The Guardian “A great British film.”

Evening Standard

“While the external scenery is spectacular, it’s the internal landscapes that capture and hold our attention.”
