2 Wed 1 July 7.30pm Rosewater Rating 15 I Running Time 103 mins I USA I 2014 Directed by Jon Stewart Starring Gael García Bernal, Kim Bodnia, Dimitri Leonidas Jon Stewart globally adored liberal icon and presenter of Comedy Central s The Daily Show adds a new string to his bow as writer/director of this shrewd, heartfelt movie about the ordeal of Tehran-born BBC journalist Maziar Bahari (Bernal), who was detained without trial, tortured and interrogated as an alleged US spy for 118 days. Rosewater is a nuanced, moving film which wrings pathos, and unexpected humour, from distressing truth. Thur 2 July 7.30pm Girlhood Rating 15 I Running Time 113 mins I France I 2014 I Subtitled Directed by Céline Sciamma Starring Karidja Touré, Assa Sylla, Lindsay Karamoh Céline Sciamma s third feature is a classic coming of age drama, set in the tough suburbs of Paris and centred around 16-year-old Marieme (Touré) and her struggles with peer pressure and self-discovery. Girlhood puts us inside a ghetto society and challenges us to share the lives and yearnings of those who want to find a way out but it also celebrates the immediate, impulsive here and now, and the result is honest, empowering and electrifying. Fri 3 July 7.30pm Top Five Rating 15 I Running Time 102 mins I USA I 2014 Directed by Chris Rock Starring Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Whoopi Goldberg A candid, fresh and ferociously funny snapshot of life in the celebrity bubble, Top Five is a meta-fictional tale in which Chris Rock plays Andre Allen an Eddie Murphy figure with roots in stand-up, millions in the bank and a hunger to reinvent himself. The real triumph here is a lightness of touch that allows a sustained and vicious attack on celebrity culture to sit neatly beside Rock s frequently hilarious set-pieces without ever overwhelming them. Sun 5 July 7.30pm Phoenix Rating 15 I Running Time 98 mins I Germany/Poland I 2014 I Subtitled Directed by Christian Petzold Starring Nina Hoss, Ronald Zehrfeld, Nina Kunzendorf In the immediate aftermath of the Second World War and the holocaust, a disfigured concentration-camp survivor (Hoss) unrecognizable after facial reconstruction surgery searches what is left of Berlin for her husband Johnny (Zehrfeld), who may or may not have betrayed her to the Nazis. A film about disguises, reinventions and deception, Phoenix is a haunting portrait of identity, loss and the search for answers in the ashes of post-war Berlin.

3 Wed 8 July 7.30pm Lambert and Stamp Rating 15 I Running Time 117 mins I UK I 2014 Directed by James D. Cooper Starring Kit Lambert, Chris Stamp, The Who A rockumentary with a difference, Lambert and Stamp is the story of Kit Lambert and his working-class business partner Chris Stamp, who started out wanting to make a New Wave film and ended up managing The Who. Packed with footage of the early years of the band, the film is colourful and humorous in its evocation of Swinging London and celebration of Lambert's idiosyncrasies. Thur 9 July 7.30pm / Fri 10 July 11am A Royal Night Out Rating 12A I Running Time 97 mins I USA I 2015 Directed by Julian Jarrold Starring Sarah Gadon, Emily Watson, Rupert Everett, Bel Powley On V.E. Day in 1945, as peace extends across Europe, Princesses Elizabeth (Gadon) and Margaret (Powley) are allowed out to join the celebrations and so unfolds a night full of excitement, danger and the first flutters of romance. A Royal Night Out is a poignant and entertaining affair with a satirical edge and a quite exceptional performance by Gadon as the cocooned young princess adjusting to life beyond the palace gates. Fri 10 July 7.30pm Pitch Perfect 2 Rating 12A I Running Time 115 mins I USA I 2015 Directed by Elizabeth Banks Starring Sarah Gadon, Emily Watson, Rupert Everett, Bel Powley The sequel to 2012 s riotous a cappella hit opens in fine style with an accidental mooning of the president thanks to a wardrobe malfunction, and doesn t let up from there. Reprising the first film s cast including the brilliant Kendrick and Wilson double act as well as its uproarious spirit, Pitch Perfect 2 is every bit as goofy and sweet as its predecessor, every bit as instantly quotable, and every bit as side-splittingly hilarious. Sat 11 July 7.30pm Mad Max: Fury Road Rating 15 I Running Time 120 mins I Australia/USA I 2015 Directed by George Miller Starring Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult A belated fourth instalment of George Miller s series which defined our notions of postapocalyptic, Mad Max: Fury Road is at once a welcome throwback to a time of leaner, meaner blockbusters and host to a surprisingly progressive worldview that has seen it described as a truly feminist action flick. With its spare dialogue and dazzlingly choreographed and edited stunts, Miller s film often feels like a great silent movie albeit a very loud one.

4 Sun 12 July 7.30pm Clouds of Sils Maria Rating 15 I Running Time 124 mins I France/Switzerland/Germany I 2014 Directed by Olivier Assayas Starring Juliette Binoche, Kristen Stewart, Chloë Grace Moretz The lines between art and life blur as Juliette Binoche stars as Maria Enders, an actor whose role in a new play leads her to reflect on her career while developing a close relationship with her assistant Valentine (Stewart). With the pair holed up in an Alpine retreat, their relationship drifts fascinatingly between rivalry, sisterhood and erotic frisson, all stoked by the play they re rehearsing, and driven by career-defining performances from Binoche and Stewart. Wed 29 July 7.30pm Danny Collins Rating 15 I Running Time 106 mins I USA I 2014 Directed by Dan Fogelman Starring Al Pacino, Jennifer Garner, Annette Bening The first film directed by Dan Fogelman, whose previous scripts run the gamut from Cars to Crazy, Stupid, Love, Danny Collins is an appealing comedy about an old pop star discovering the true meaning of life. With an unabashed streak of melodrama, sharp dialogue and a superb ensemble cast anchored by a lead performance by Al Pacino in lovable scamp mode, this is a film that is affecting, warm-hearted and impossible to dislike. Thu 6 Aug 7.30pm Black Coal Thin Ice Bai Ri Yan Huo Rating 15 I Running Time 110 mins I China I 2014 I Subtitled Directed by Yi'nan Diao Starring Fan Liao, Lun Mei Gwei, Xuebing Wang A film noir from China, Black Coal Thin Ice is a riveting drama about a cop obsessed with a serial killer who, when the killings begin again years later, realises that he may have known the culprit all along. Taking the form of an old-school whodunit, the film s subtle achievements and atmospheric complexity made it a deserved recipient of the coveted Golden Bear at the 2014 Berlin Film Festival. Fri 7 Aug 11am / 7.30pm Queen and Country Rating 15 I Running Time 115 mins I Ireland/France/Romania I 2014 Directed by John Boorman Starring Callum Turner, Caleb Landry Jones, Pat Shortt Almost 30 years on, John Boorman's sequel and companion-piece to his Oscar-nominated autobiographical 1987 classic Hope and Glory offers a vivid snapshot of army and family life in post-war England. A poignant reminder of a different world, Queen and Country is an entertaining and sympathetic guide to the 1950s, shot through with an eye for detail and a genuine appreciation of life s gentle pleasures.

6 Fri 14 Aug 11am / Sat 15 Aug 7.30pm Mr Holmes Rating PG I Running Time 104 mins I UK/USA I 2015 Directed by Bill Condon Starring Ian McKellen, Laura Linney, Hiroyuki Sanada, Milo Parker After recent eye-catching turns as the great detective by Robert Downey Jr. and Benedict Cumberbatch, Mr Holmes, starring Ian McKellen, is a Sherlock film with a difference. Loosely based on Mitch Cullin s 2005 novel A Slight Trick of the Mind, the film features Holmes at 93, living in cantankerous retirement, exasperated at the way he has been misrepresented in Watson s bestselling accounts and attempting to rewrite his own legacy. Fri 14 Aug 7.30pm Listen Up Philip Rating 15 I Running Time 109 mins I USA I 2014 Directed by Alex Ross Perry Starring Jason Schwartzman, Elisabeth Moss, Krysten Ritter An often hilariously funny tragicomedy, Listen Up Philip is a window into the soul of the alternately self-regarding and self-loathing novelist Philip Lewis Friedman, played by the peerless Jason Schwartzman with a thoroughly unpleasant obnoxiousness. For all of its uproarious, often brutal comedy, Listen Up Philip is at heart a serious work about the struggle to follow your muse whilst existing in the real world. Sun 16 Aug 7.30pm Les Combattants Rating 15 I Running Time 98 mins I France I 2014 I Subtitled Directed by Thomas Cailley Starring Adèle Haenel, Kévin Azaïs, Antoine Laurent, Brigitte Roüan Winner of three prizes in the Cannes Directors' Fortnight, Thomas Cailley's debut feature is an expertly handled, brilliantly performed feel-good comedy with a refreshing originality. The story of a young French couple who cement their love in the unlikely setting of an Army survival program, Les Combattants is progressive and authentic, but never heavy-handed. A funny and entertaining comedy about falling in love and surviving. Fri 21 Aug 7.30pm She s Funny That Way Rating 12A I Running Time 94 mins I USA I 2014 Directed by Peter Bogdanovich Starring Jennifer Aniston, Imogen Poots, Owen Wilson A welcome return for director Bogdanovich, one of the New Hollywood directors responsible for a string of wonderful films in the early 1970s, She s Funny That Way is a high-class screwball comedy that recalls the best of Woody Allen. A hymn to the golden age of Hollywood, the whole thing fizzes with the effortless touch, livewire rhythms and sparkling wit of a master of the genre.

Fri 28 Aug 7.30pm Amy Rating Doc I Running Time 127 mins I UK I 2015 Directed by Asif Kapadia Starring Amy Winehouse Asif Kapadia s study of the great British soul queen Amy Winehouse, who died of alcohol poisoning at 27, is stunningly moving and powerful: intimate, passionate, often shocking and always absorbing. Like Kapadia s previous documentary, the Bafta-winning Senna, Amy is a patchwork of archive images and clips from home movies, concert videos, news footage, camcorded holiday memories and selfies. It is an overwhelming story, and despite everyone knowing the ending, it is as gripping as a thriller. Sat 29 Aug 7.30pm Magic Mike XXL Rating TBC I Running Time TBC mins I USA I 2015 Directed by Gregory Jacobs Starring Amber Heard, Elizabeth Banks, Channing Tatum The follow-up to 2012 s surprisingly smart and sensitive mega-hit about male strippers, Magic Mike XXL picks up three years after the events of its predecessor, when Mike (Tatum) bowed out of his profession at the top of his game. The sequel finds Mike and the Kings of Tampa on the road to one last blow-out performance in Myrtle Beach, learning valuable lessons about life and friendship along the way. Sun 30 Aug 7.30pm Comet Rating TBC I Running Time 91 mins I USA I 2014 Directed by Sam Esmail Starring Justin Long, Emmy Rossum, Kayla Servi An innovative American indie film, Comet comes on like a fusion of Annie Hall and Interstellar, using a playful time-jumping chronology and sci-fi motifs in order to chart five key turning points in a six-year relationship. With beautiful chemistry between the leads, Sam Esmail s debut feature is an arresting and inventive commentary on the intertwining of fate, love and loss.
