LA BOHÈME
GLYNDEBOURNE In ‘La Bohème’, Puccini elevates ordinary people to the level of the extraordinary, the tragic, the timeless – transformed by a score that has seduced generations of audiences. Fresh from Festival 2022, Glyndebourne’s new five-star production is ‘a masterpiece in monochrome’ (The Arts Desk). With a ‘megawatt Mimì’, director Floris Visser delivers a ‘fresh take’ on one of the greatest operas of all time (The Times). When seamstress Mimì meets the struggling writer Rodolfo they are instantly drawn together. But Paris is a city of hardship as well as love, as the two young Bohemians and their friends soon discover. 120M (NO INTERVAL)

MR. MALCOLM’S LIST
This romantic period drama is a playful mix of ‘Bridgerton’ and ‘Dangerous Liaisons’ based on the bestselling book by Suzanne Allain, and is Emma Holly Jones’ feature debut. When she fails to meet an item on his list of requirements for a bride, Julia Thistlewaite (Zawe Ashton) is jilted by London’s most eligible bachelor, Mr. Malcolm (Sope Dirisu). Feeling humiliated and determined to exact revenge, she convinces her friend Selina Dalton (Freida Pinto) to play the role of his ideal match. Soon, Mr. Malcolm wonders whether he has found the perfect woman… or the perfect hoax. Author Suzanne Allain also wrote the screenplay for this resplendent period drama. It’s fun and romantic, with beautiful wardrobes and scenery and an outstanding cast. It checks almost all the right boxes. UK 2022 EMMA HOLLY JONES 115M

FROM THE FILM FESTIVAL - SPAIN OFFICIAL COMPETITION
COMPETENCIA OFICIAL
With Penélope Cruz playing a director who must harness the rivalrous egos of her two leading men, played by Antonio Banderas and Oscar Martínez, this comedy eschews easy laughs for something more intricate. A billionaire businessman in search of fame and social prestige decides to make a unique, ground-breaking film. To achieve this goal, he hires the best of the best: a stellar team consisting of famous filmmaker Lola Cuevas and two well-known actors who boast not only an enormous talent, but also an even bigger ego: Hollywood star Félix Rivero and aging theatre thespian Iván Torres. They are both legends, but not exactly the best of friends. If awards season gets up your nose, with its self-congratulatory speeches and luvvie back-patting, this playful and wildly entertaining Spanish satire on the filmmaking process is the perfect antidote.

SEE HOW THEY RUN
In the West End of 1950s London, plans for a movie version of a smash-hit play come to an abrupt halt after a pivotal member of the crew is murdered. When world-weary Inspector Stoppard (Sam Rockwell) and eager rookie Constable Stalker (Saoirse Ronan) take on the case, the two find themselves thrown into a puzzling whodunit within the glamorously sordid theatre underground, investigating the mysterious homicide at their own peril. David Oyelowo, Reece Shearsmith, Adrien Brody and Ruth Wilson also feature. The project was shot in historic London locations earlier this year, at sites including the Dominion Theatre on Tottenham Court Road, St. Martin’s Theatre in the West End and the Old Vic Theatre in Waterloo. This is very much in the Agatha Christie mode with bundles more wit and panache, and is a sublime blend of ‘Noises Off’ and brilliant 2019 ‘Knives Out’. USA 2022 TOM GEORGE 98M
