Ludivine Sagnier
A screenwriter struggling to write a serial-killer script gets more real-life inspiration than he can handle when a dognapping scheme gone awry brings a galaxy of crazies to his doorstep. A top-notch cult-movie cast - including Christopher Walken, Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrelson, Tom Waits, Harry Dean Stanton - anchors this wacky, blood-spattered commentary on the psycho-killer thriller from the writerdirector of In Bruges.
Martin Freeman
On the run from an evil enemy and his army of nutcrackers, the last real Santa Claus crash lands into Ben and Charlotte’s lives, and takes them on a series of adventures complete with high-speed chases, fake Santas and an invisible reindeer. [In English]
Ruthless executive Christine brings on Isabelle as her assistant. But when the protégé’s ideas become tempting enough for Christine to pass on as her own, she underestimates Isabelle’s ambition and cunning and the ground is set for all-out war. A complex, mischievous, surprising and ultimately devastating look at the corporate world, a last magical effort from one of the world’s most loved directors.
Faithfully adapted from Yann Martel’s bestseller, Life of Pi is a film in which soaring imagination and cutting-edge technology combine to maximum effect to tell the story of a young Indian boy who survives a shipwreck and subsequent 227-day journey aboard a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger as his fearsome and, ultimately, cherished companion. Fantastical, suspenseful and breathtakingly beautiful, Life of Pi looks like a classic that, as with the best of Hollywood’s golden era, can be savoured by audiences of all ages. NYFF
A curious Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, journeys to the Lonely Mountain with a vigorous group of Dwarves to reclaim a treasure stolen from them by the dragon Smaug.
