The final part of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium trilogy, based on the bestselling books. Lisbeth is trying to clear her name of murder, but powerful and dangerous forces are trying to silence her and she has to face the past and risk her life at every turn to tell her story. Cambridge Film Festival
Six years after Earth has suffered an alien invasion, a cynical journalist agrees to escort a shaken American tourist through an infected zone in Mexico to the safety of the US border. Unique, totally original, even romantic take on the genre from debuting director Edwards marking him out as a talent not to be ignored.
TRON - Legacy is a 3D action-packed adventure set in a digital world unlike anything captured on the big screen. Sam Flynn is haunted by the disappearance of his father, a man once known as the world’s leading video-game developer. When Sam investigates a strange signal sent from the abandoned Flynn’s Arcade he finds himself pulled into a world where his father has been trapped for 20 years. Together they embark on a life-ordeath journey across a visually stunning universe - pursued by a ruthless villain who will stop at nothing to prevent their escape.
Miral is a little red flower that is found on the side of the road; it is also the name of a young woman whose story illustrates the lived experience of the Israeli/ Palestinian struggle. Julian Schnabel (The Diving Bell and the Butterfly) takes on the celebrated novel by Rula Jebreal, a multi-generational story of Palestinian women whose lives are shaped by historic conflict. An intimate tale of loyalty, love and family is painted onto a pristinely gorgeous desert landscape, and Miral is an eye-opening drama as well as a transportive experience of breathtaking cinema.
When they escape a Siberian labour camp in 1940 a band of courageous prisoners discover the true meaning of friendship. The story follows six men who undertake the suicidal, desperate project of escape, including an arduous trek through Mongolia and the Himalayas. Ed Harris plays a misanthropic American expat, Colin Farrell a wily Russian thug, and Saoirse Ronan a mysterious girl encountered on the journey. The revelation is British actor Jim Sturgess who plays an idealistic Pole and unexpected leader.
Starring: Annette Bening, Mark Ruffalo,
Duration: 145m
Sofia Coppola makes a happy return to Lost in Translation territory in the subtly charming Somewhere, which illuminates the emptiness of a movie star’s life in Los Angeles through close observation and gentle irony. Johnny Marco is a bad-boy A-List actor who has a Ferrari, and a constant stream of girls and pills to occupy him. But when his 11-year-old daughter arrives unexpectedly he is finally faced with the question of where his life is going.

Dir: Clio Bernard United Kingdom 2010 94m
In 1980, 15-year-old schoolgirl Andrea Dunbar was the talk of the London theatre scene when her play, The Arbor, was staged at the Royal Court. She died at 29, leaving behind 10-year-old Lorraine, who would go off the rails and end up serving time for manslaughter. This documentary examines the lives of these remarkable women using interviews with Lorraine and the family, which are then lip-synced by actors.
RESTREPO (15) Directors: Sebastian Junger & Tim Hetherington United States 2010 93m
This harrowing war film follows American soldiers on a 15-month deployment in the remote Korengal Valley in eastern Afghanistan. In an unrelentingly harsh landscape, the unit digs in, takes enemy fire, and returns it, every day. Not everyone makes it out alive. Scenes of the chaos of combat are interspersed with postdeployment interviews, and both are devastating. In this era of embedded journalists, filmmakers Sebastian Junger and Tim Hetherington are able to depict the reality and horror of war with an immediacy unimaginable in wars past.
TUE 21, FROM 6PM IT’S CHRISTMAS! Come and enjoy some Christmasy food and a glass of mulled wine tonight before enjoying our ‘alternative’ festive movie, Rare Exports!!

THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER
The sheer fun of classic kids' adventure movies is perfectly captured and slightly lampooned in the deliciously winning Rare Exports. Jalmari Helander expands on his hit shorts to create a prequel in which a boy realizes an excavation near his Arctic hometown has released the original, evil Santa Claus from his frozen prison. Conceived with winking humour and a terrific visual style, the film is a rare treat that could accrue cult status. Variety
