We would walk 500 miles (and we would
walk 500 more) just to see this rip-roaring
adaptation of the hit musical based on the
songs of The Proclaimers! An absolute joy
from start to finish this is one film that will
have you toe-tapping in the cinema aisles!
Oscar-winners Christian Bale, Amy
Adams, and Jennifer Lawrence star
in this crime drama about a brilliant
con man who is recruited by the FBI
to infiltrate the mafia with a job that
is as dangerous as it is enchanting.
Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman turn
in powerhouse performances in this
extremely affecting and accomplished
drama based on the true story of Eric
Lomax, a former prisoner of World
War II coming to terms with his time
working on the Burma railway.
Reissued as part of the BFI Gothic season,
this creepily atmospheric, stylishly crafted
and chilling ghost tale sees a young
governess become convinced that the
mansion she is sent to work in is haunted.
Astounding critics and hotly tipped to walk
away with just about every film award
going, this devastatingly brutal depiction of
slavery on a New Orleans plantation in the
1800s starring Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael
Fassbender and Brad Pitt is shaping up
to be the first must-see film of 2014.
The first Saudi Arabian film to be
directed by a woman and the first to
be shot entirely within the kingdom,
this inspirational debut from Haifaa
Al-Mansour follows Wadjda, a ten-year
old girl pushing against Saudi tradition.

Tension, Spice Girl, and The Sensei.
Paolo Sorrento, one of the modern
masters of Italian filmmaking brings
this breath-taking love letter to Rome

National treasure Jim Broadbent and
Olivier Award-winning star of stage
and screen Lindsay Duncan (About
Time) are outstanding in this tender,
insightful comedy as a couple trying
