Dir: Celine Song 2023 I 106 mins
English and Korean with English subtitles.
Nora lives in New York. She is reunited with the man who was her childhood friend in South Korea. It is a fateful week.
'It’s a must-see' ★★★★★ Guardian
'Plaudits to the principal cast, who do a miraculous job of portraying inner conflict and ecstasy with the merest tilt of a head, or subtle shift of a shoulder' ★★★★★ Observer
'Song finds the political in the personal and avoids seeming indulgent or niche' ★★★★★ Observer
'The film’s great magic is the way it captures the beauty of lonely cities with a camera that seems to caress their geography' ★★★★★ Daily Telegraph
'The performances are impossibly strong and awards-season ready. Anything other than a best actress Oscar nomination for Lee will be criminal' ★★★★★ Times
'A transcendent debut for South Korean-Canadian filmmaker Celine Song, this romantic drama is a masterclass in slow, simmering storytelling. It will stay with you, maybe even into your next life' ★★★★★ Empire

One Life (cert TBC)
Dir: James Hawes 2023 | Run time tbc
Telling the true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton.
Sir Nicholas Winton was a young London broker who, along with Trevor Chadwick and Doreen Warriner of the British Committee for Refugees in Czechoslovakia, rescued 669 children from the Nazis in the months leading up to World War II.
Nicky visited Prague in December 1938 and found families who had fled the rise of the Nazis in Germany and Austria, living in desperate conditions with little or no shelter and food, and under threat of Nazi invasion. He immediately realised it was a race against time. How many children could he and the team rescue before the borders closed?
Fifty years later, it’s 1988 and Nicky lives haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to bring to safety in England. It’s not until a live BBC television show, That’s Life!, surprises him by introducing him to some surviving children – now adults – that he finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he had carried for five decades.
Starring Anthony Hopkins, Johnny Flynn, Helena Bonham Carter, Jonathan Pryce and Romola Garai.

May December (15)
Dir: Todd Haynes 2023 | 117 mins
The latest film from director Todd Haynes is a pitch-perfect melodrama, focusing on an actor researching for a film about a relationship with a significant age gap.
From the outside, Gracie and Joe are the perfect suburban couple. That is, if you don’t take into account the fact that their relationship was a tabloid sensation 20 years ago.
When Elizabeth, an actor, arrives at their home to research for a role in a film based on Gracie, it becomes clear that the couple’s relationship isn’t as strong as they’d like to believe.
As the truth begins to unspool, and Elizabeth immerses herself in her role, it becomes clear that she’s not the only one acting. What is the truth to Gracie and Joe’s relationship? And is Elizabeth’s presence complicating things even further?
Starring Natalie Portman and Julianne Moore.
