FILMS SHOWING Friday December 25 to Thursday December 31

To Our Newsletter Subscribers,

Many thanks for an outstanding 2015 at the Princess, and 2016 looks to be just as stellar! Opening on December 25th, we have 3 highly anticipated new films: from the director of 'The King's Speech,' THE DANISH GIRL; Michael Caine in the poetically rich, YOUTH; and a film that could be our biggest hit of the year, the refreshingly old-fashioned, BROOKLYN. The Princess has another new feature to mention: Instead of producing 6 bi-monthly film guides per year, we will produce 8 programs a year, covering a period of 6 or 7 weeks of listings for the Original Princess Cinema. The bookers & graphic wizards in the cinema back office will be busier adjusting to this new format, but the audiences will benefit from a more current selection of films. And may we remind members, we mail out this printed guide FREE of charge for the duration of your membership. If you are a member and haven't done so already, drop off your name and address next time you're at cinema. Another benefit of being a member!
The Christmas season represents busy days for us at the Princess, as the critically-praised, awards-season contenders jockey for position on the lead up to the Oscars on Feb 28th, 2016.
From the entire Staff and Management of the Princess Cinemas, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year in 2016! See you at the movies!

Brooklyn

PG

Nominated for 3 Oscars, incl. Best Film & Actress. "A superb, emotionally turbulent account of a young Irishwoman's attempt to become an American in the early 1950s." - Hollywood Reporter

"The Lacey women, wrote Irish novelist Colm Toibin in his 2009 book BROOKLYN, could do everything, 'except say out loud what it was they were thinking.' In John Crowley’s lovely film made from the novel, Saoirse Ronan ('Atonement') provides a master class in showing, not saying, what her character Eilis Lacey is thinking.

No screenings currently scheduled.

The Danish Girl

14A

Oscar winner! Alicia Vikander for Best Supporting Actress

"Eddie Redmayne goes deep in this biopic on the Danish painter who became a transgender activist.Nearly a century ago, Einar Wegener became a pioneer in gender-reassignment surgery. You can't take your eyes off Eddie Redmayne (Oscar winner - The Theory of Everything), who is flat-out fabulous as Einar.

Youth

14A

"Michael Caine and Harvey Keitel make beautiful music together in a witty, wise and swooningly beautiful dramatic comedy." - New York Post

Trumbo

14A

Golden Globe nominated! "Trumbo reminds us of a very dark time in America as well as Hollywood. Important but also hugely entertaining. Bryan Cranston nails it." - Deadline Hollywood

“Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) does sterling work in 'Trumbo' as an eloquent screenwriter who bucked the Hollywood blacklist and triumphed. Catnip for fans of old Hollywood, this highly entertaining biopic focuses on so-called 'swimming pool Communist' Dalton Trumbo, who was once Tinseltown’s highest-paid writer.

Spotlight

14A

Winner! Oscar for Best Picture. "A remarkably assured and tight retelling of the Boston Globe's investigation into the Catholic Church's legacy of child abuse and cover-ups." - Globe & Mail

"Spotlight is a masterpiece. Director Tom McCarthy’s drama embraces both great cinema and even better journalism as it chronicles a Boston Globe investigative team’s real-life expose on child abuse by local priests and the Catholic Church cover-up that followed. Not only is it an amazingly crafted movie, it’s an important one as well.

Room

14A

Winner! Oscar for Best Actress (Brie Larson). "It's a deeply satisfying, profoundly moving adaptation of a popular novel, an all-too-rare occurrence in modern Hollywood." Winner, Golden Globe Best Actress

"Adapted from Emma Donoghue’s 2010 novel of the same name, this captivity narrative about a woman and her young son living in a 10-by-10-foot shed is no one’s idea of a feel-good story.
