FILMS SHOWING Friday Oct 4 to Thursday Oct 10

"Bill Nighy is a debonair delight in this charming, elegant, whimsical and unexpectedly moving gem of British comedy-drama mystery." - Daily Mirror

"Sometimes Always Never is a quiet, funny, sad, quirky delight, beautifully written by Frank Cottrell Boyce, and directed with tremendous style by first-timer Carl Hunter. Seek it out if you can. It has a superb central performance by Bill Nighy, and first-class support from, among others, Jenny Agutter, Tim McInnerny and Sam Riley.

“One of the giants of American television news broadcasting gets an extended close-up in Mike Wallace Is Here, a compulsively engrossing account of a career notable for its gutsy, confrontational attitude toward the power brokers in business and politics.

No screenings currently scheduled.

"To make a movie so bad it's good you need vision, drive, luck and obsessive vanity. Fortuitously Tommy Wiseau appears to possess all of these qualities, combined with a total lack of acting talent." - The Guardian

Celebrate 20 years of The Room! 

“Tommy Wiseau’s The Room may be the first true successor to the Rocky Horror throne.  Wiseau's Johnny is the noblest of boyfriends and most capable of lovers. But none of that satisfies his fiancée Lisa, a wicked Jezebel whose boredom with Johnny manifests in a brazen affair with his best friend.

Tribute to Robbie Robertson. “With Robertson’s deep timber and vivid recollections – as well as quips from his mentor Ronnie Hawkins, interviews with fellow rock luminaries and a dizzying amount of rock and roll archival clips – it’s an entertaining account of Robertson’s journey through monumental music moments.” - NOW" - Variety

"A tour through Winogrand's unique sensibility and a changing America, the film charts a career now enshrined in the canon of photography but which was, like most artists' lives, more difficult in the living." - Burnaway

Art, Design, Achitecture. "Thirty years after the Museum of Modern Art’s posthumous 1988 retrospective of the work of photographer Garry Winogrand comes Garry Winogrand: All Things Are Photographable, is a balanced and deeply satisfying documentary assessment of the late photographer’s work.

No screenings currently scheduled.

"Tarantino's brand of classical moviemaking is a thrill to behold." - Minneapolis Star Tribune

After a career of celebrating, dismantling, and reviving every corner of cinema history he can find, master filmmaker and provocateur Quentin Tarantino finally turns his attention to the movie business itself.

No screenings currently scheduled.

"Honeyland has become one of the most talked about documentaries of the year, and it's not hard to see why." - The Gate

“The opening frames of Honeyland are so rustically sumptuous that you wonder, for a second, if they’ve somehow been art-directed.

No screenings currently scheduled.

STC

“A sort of seafaring Battle of the Sexes, Maiden is an enlivening bit of documentary filmmaking about an all-female sailing crew that takes on harsh oceanic conditions and even rougher treatment from the sexist international sailing community.

No screenings currently scheduled.

NR

"Bloody hell, the Brits do low-key, paranoid procedural dramas like Official Secrets well, with a pervading chill... The crispness cuts like a knife." - New York Magazine

"Based on the book The Spy Who Tried To Stop A War, Official Secrets tells the true story of British secret-service officer Katharine Gun, who during the immediate run-up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq leaked a top-secret National Security Agency memo. The memo – which exposed an illegal U.S./U.K.

“In Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool, Sundance vet Stanley Nelson offers a documentary broader in chronological scope than his most visible films, celebrating a musician whose career was not just long but constantly transformational.

"Reiner's brilliantly inventive script and smart visuals avoid all the obvious pitfalls, making this one of the funniest ever films about the music business." - Time Out

"This Is Spinal Tap, one of the funniest movies ever made, is about a lot of things, but one of them is the way the real story is not in the questions or in the answers, but at the edge of the frame. There are two stories told in the film: the story of what the rock band Spinal Tap thinks, hopes, believes or fears is happening, and the story of what is actually happening.
