Reese Witherspoon, Benicio del
Toro, Jena Malone, Maya Rudolph,
Martin Short
Contemporary master Paul Thomas Anderson’s (There Will Be
Blood, The Master) hilarious, jubilant Inherent Vice is the first
ever adaptation of a Thomas Pynchon novel. Set in kaleidoscopic
1970s California, it stars Joaquin Phoenix as a shambolic
private investigator tasked with a curious mystery. Trippy and
convoluted, by turns colourfully antic and dreamily woozy, with
a killer cast including Josh Brolin, Owen Wilson, Martin Short and
Reese Witherspoon.

From writer/director Leila
Sansour, this is a remarkable
documentary about Bethlehem –
home to the majority of
Palestine’s Christians and
Sansour’s own hometown.
Returning to document a year in the city as it’s encircled by the
‘separation wall’ built by Israelis around the West Bank, this is a
courageous film taking in the suffering and strength of a Palestinian
community.

Kidman, Sally Hawkins, Julie Waters,

d’Or winner The Class and
creator of the acclaimed
television series The Returned, directs this tense, erotically charged

observes some of the bleaker aspects of inter-EU immigration.

modern computer and crack the German Enigma code during the darkest

Luxembourg / Germany | 2014 |
96 mins | German w/Eng
Subtitles
Cast | Christian Friedel, Birte
Schnoeink, Stephan
Grossmann, Michael Kohlhass
From Lourdes director Jessica Hausner comes a deliciously humorous
feminist period drama, and a masterful depiction of Berlin in the Romantic
era, based on the life of the Romantic poet Henrich von Kleist.

by idealist Heinrich, a poet who decides to prove his love through a suicide
pact.

Witherspoon is emotionally unstable Cheryl, who attempts the Pacific
Crest Trail solo to get over a broken marriage, a death in her family and
addiction.

graceful, delightful Love is Strange

dynamics of their new digs. Moving and comic in equal measure.
