BOMBSHELL

BOMBSHELL
Thursday 19 March at 2.30pm (Subtitled) and 7.30pm

Margot Robbie, Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman

Based on the real life scandal, Bombshell is a revealing look inside Fox News, the most powerful and controversial media empire of all time, and the explosive story of the women who brought down the infamous man who created it.  

“One of the most compelling stories of the #MeToo movement is told unflinchingly, empathetically and authentically, with Charlize Theron completely nailing the knotty character of Megyn Kelly.” Empire

2019 | Dir Jay Roach | 109min | USA

The evening programme will also include our current BRIT School Showcase film Seeing Double (12A, 3 min), an eerie Year 12 short directed by Mitchell Bradshaw.


Ticket Prices:
£8.00 (Standard), £6.50 (Concessions), £5.00 (25 and under).

ONCE UPON A TIME … IN HOLLYWOOD

ONCE UPON A TIME … IN HOLLYWOOD 
Thursday 26 September 2019 at 2.30pm (Subtitled) and 7.00pm

Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie

Tarantino’s latest takes us back to late-60s Hollywood and features DiCaprio as a sometime TV star facing up to his own declining powers in an entertainment landscape that’s changing before his eyes. As ever with Quentin, plot is simply a hook on which to hang crackling, salty dialogue, larger-than-life characterisations (including real-life monsters such as Polanski and Manson), postmodern trickiness and a deluge of pop culture references. Brazen, uneven, probably a few minutes too long and, as always, unmissable. 

* The 2.30pm screening will be subtitled for those with hearing loss

2019 | Dir Quentin Tarantino | 159min |  USA |  UK

Freely interweaving his own inventions with the myths and legends of Hollywood’s late golden years… Quentin Tarantino delivers one of the most exuberantly sharp-witted meta-movies we’ve seen” – Jessica Kiang, Sight and Sound


Ticket Prices:
£7.50 (Standard), £6.00 (Concessions), £5.00 (25 and under).

MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS (15) – 2018 UK 124 mins

2.30 screening subtitled for people with hearing loss

Director: Josie Rourke
Stars: Saoirse Ronan, Margot Robbie, David Tennant, Guy Pearce

Queen of France at the age of sixteen, widowed the next year, Mary Stuart returned to rule her own country in turbulent times. Marrying twice more before abdication and imprisonment in England, she was viewed as the legitimate queen of England by many Catholics and therefore a serious threat to her cousin Elizabeth. Ronan gives a characteristically poised performance as the Scottish ruler, while Robbie is transformed as her English counterpart. A Women’s History Month Screening.

“Margot Robbie and Saoirse Ronan excel as wily foes in Josie Rourke’s striking take on the rivalry between Elizabeth I and her Scottish cousin” ★★★★ Mark Kermode, The Guardian

I, TONYA (15) – 2017 USA 120 min

Director: Craig Gillespie
Stars: Margot Robbie, Sebastian Stan, Allison Janney

Image of filmWhile she was one of the world’s most talented ice skaters as the 1994 Winter Olympics approached, Tonya Harding became infamous when her rival was attacked on the orders of her ex-husband. This “bleakly hilarious” (The Guardian) mockumentary is framed around Tonya and her family’s conflicting accounts of her rise from an impoverished, abusive background and her chaotic fall from grace. Giving uninhibited performances as Tonya and her hardnosed mother LaVona, Robbie and Janney both richly deserve their Academy Award nominations.
