With the holiday season just around the corner, we thought we would take a second to remind you about our Private Bubble Cinema... rent out the entire cinema for your family & friends to catch a movie this Christmas.

Some of 2020's best indie films are arriving at the Princess this week, with the much anticipated LGBTQ romance period-piece, Ammonite. The film stars Kate Winslet & Saoirse Ronan and the chemistry between them is some of the best we've seen on-screen this year. Reviews for the film are pointing towards another Oscar for Winslet: "As fossil-hunter Mary Anning, Kate Winslet gives probably the performance of her career." And of course, Saoirse Ronan is always outstanding, so you can be sure she'll be noticed, too.

The Climb, which is new this week feels like an Alexander Payne film. There hasn't been a film about male friendship this fresh since 2004's Sideways and we're really excited to be able to bring it to the Playhouse. "You realise that what you're watching is an epic disguised as scuffed indie comedy, a portrait of adult friendship in which no one ever completely grows up." - Financial Times

The New Corporation: The Unfortunately Necessary Sequel screens on the 17th, only. It's the sequel to The Corporation, a big hit for us back in 2003. Look at that devil with a device in his hand.... A must-see!

If you're looking for a totally different kind of cinema experience this week, check out The 3rd Annual NY Cat Film Festival (short films featuring our adorable feline friends) or, the cult-classic Tammy and the T-Rex. This film might be your new favourite cult-classic: "A teen (Denise Richards) learns that a scientist (Paul Walker) implanted her dead boyfriend's brain into an animatronic dinosaur." We're wondering, teenage hormones?

One of the best films of all time. The screenplay by veteran screenwriter, Herman Mankiewicz --"MANK"-- won its only Oscar.

Orson Welles' first feature film -- which he directed, produced, and co-wrote, as well as playing the title role -- proved to be his most important and influential work, a ground-breaking drama loosely based on the life of William Randolph Hearst which is frequently cited as the finest American film ever made.
