HELLO Just when you think you are sure of what comes next, life turns around and confounds you.

You think there will never be another film maker like Ken Loach, of such compassion and political acuity, but then along comes Clio Barnard with The Selfish Giant and Kes is reborn for the 21st century.

You think that Cate Blanchett has got the Oscar for Best Actress sewn up for Blue Jasmine, and then Sandra Bullock gives an amazing performance in the sci-fi chamber piece Gravity opposite George Clooney.

And how could they possibly follow Mamma Mia? Well, Dexter Fletcher’s Sunshine on Leith is a heartfelt tale of romance in Edinburgh based on songs by The Proclaimers.

You can’t follow Trainspotting but the dynamic James McAvoy leads a starry cast in a tale of corruption and abuse in Irvine Welsh’s Filth.

You think that everything has already been said about the assassination of JFK. 50 years on, Parkland looks at this landmark event through the eyes of the bit players and bystanders, revealing another story altogether.

Filth 18 Fri 1 – Tue 5 Nov Dir: Jon S. Baird UK 2013 97mins Cast: James McAvoy, Jamie Bell, Imogen Poots

Mary Poppins is an evergreen family favourite but what about the truth behind the tale?

Saving Mr. Banks examines the extraordinary duel between its creator, P L Travers and Walt Disney as she fights to protect her beloved characters from the vulgarization of Hollywood.

It’s been 17 years since Trainspotting, but finally Filth has arrived, another Irvine Welsh adaptation worthy of being discussed in the same breath as Danny Boyle’s breakthrough film. This tale of a corrupt policeman on a downward spiral is a no-holds barred odyssey through Edinburgh’s seedy underbelly, that is replete with Welsh’s trademark satire and scathing wit.

I Wish was the best Japanese film of the year until its director Hirokazu Kore-eda made Like Father, Like Son which is graced by wonderful children’s performances and some deeply moving adults, too.

It features a career-defining performance from James McAvoy, who thoroughly destroys his nice-guy persona with his portrayal of Bruce Robertson – a drug addled, sex-crazed, morally destitute Edinburgh cop who will stop at nothing to gain a promotion to Detective Inspector.

Enjoy the run up to Christmas.

With a cast that includes Shirley Henderson, Jamie Bell and Eddie Marsden, this is a black comedy not for the faint-hearted.

Wed 6 & Thu 7 Nov Dir: Margarethe von Trotta Germany/Luxembourg/France 2012 113mins subtitled Cast: Barbara Sukowa, Axel Milberg, Janet McTeer, Julia Jentsch

45 years after the classic Zeffirelli picture and numerous modern adaptations, experience a return to the traditional telling of William Shakespeare’s romantic tragedy, starring Hailee Steinfield (True Grit) and Douglas Booth (BBC’s Great Expectations) as the doomed young lovers.

An unflinching look at life of political theorist Hannah Ardent, and her report on one of the most controversial trials in history. Ardent was a German-born Jew who fled to New York during World War II, where she became influential in the world of academia, eventually becoming the first female professor at Princeton University. As a writer, she was asked by The New Yorker to cover the trial of the former SS Lieutenant Adolf Eichmann, one of the major facilitators of the Holocaust. Her subsequent reports caused controversy amongst the paper’s readers, as she concluded that Eichmann was an example of the “banality of evil”.

In this classic tale, screenwriter Julian Fellowes remains faithful to the period setting and Shakespeare’s verse, providing the framework for a new classic, which also stars Damian Lewis (TV’s Homeland) and Paul Giamatti (Sideways).

Ruffalo is recovering sex-addict Adam, who (after encouragement from his sponsor) begins seeing fitness fanatic Phoebe (Paltrow).

Soon issues of intimacy and trust impact on the development of their relationship.

Treading a lighter path than Steve McQueen’s Shame, Blumberg provides comic relief in the form Sex Addict Anonymous members Neil (Josh Gad) and Dede (Pink).

Sunshine on Leith PG Fri 8 – Tue 12 Nov, Sat 14 & Mon 16 – Thu 19 Dec Dir: Dexter Fletcher UK 2013 100mins Cast: George MacKay, Peter Mullan, Jason Flemyng, Jane Horrocks Sunshine on Leith is the polar opposite to this season’s other Edinburgh-set film Filth – Scotland’s capital has never seemed as warm and welcoming as it does in this musical, featuring tunes from The Proclaimers.

Director Dexter Fletcher (Wild Bill) assembles a cast of young unknown actors who deliver engaging and enthusiastic performances, with nuanced musical performances from the more established names, which include Peter Mullan and Jane Horrocks.

Davy and Ally are young squaddies, returning home to Edinburgh after a tour in Afghanistan.

Now matters of the heart are their main concerns as they readjust to civilian life.

An uplifting look at life through song.

Shakespeare on Screen

Sat 9 Nov 11am – 3.30pm

Sat 23 Nov 11am – 3.30pm

Coinciding with its emergence as a major economic power, China has become a remarkable producer of cinema, with waves of film-making, first dramatising the nation’s recent past and later probing some of the more difficult areas of contemporary life.

From John Gielgud to Leonardo de Caprio, from Bette Davis to Gwyneth Paltrow, Shakespeare’s lovers have been played on film by an extraordinary range of performers, including animated garden gnomes and live-action Belgian cats. Adaptations, modernisations, parodies and backstage dramas have explored the fascination of Romeo and Juliet since film began. And the play itself has been brought to the screen by some of cinema’s most brilliant, inventive and lyrical directors.

Producer, consultant and programmer David Sin introduces the themes and protagonists of this new golden age with illustrations from their films.

There will be a complete screening of Chen’s ground-breaking Farewell My Concubine, not screened in UK cinemas for over a decade.

An intelligent, divorced woman in her late 50s, Gloria (García) is independent but looking for company. Preferring dance clubs to sitting at home in her Santiago flat, one night she meets Rudolfo, a soft-spoken, recent divorcé. As a relationship develops between them, Gloria is confronted with Rudolfo’s dependence on his exwife and children.

University of Warwick English Professor Tony Howard investigates the undying popularity of Romeo and Juliet with a screening of Baz Luhrmann’s 1996 film adaptation Romeo + Juliet.

A compelling central performance from Paulina García, winner of the Best Actress Award at the Berlin Film Festival, and a well-written storyline makes this a compassionate but never sentimental character study. Gloria is a rare gem, a satisfyingly mature look at middle age.

“A GENTLY HUMOROUS MELODRAMA THAT’S REFRESHINGLY GROWNUP.”

In his finest screen performance to date Steve Coogan plays Sixsmith, a political writer recently sacked from his job, who is approached at a party and offered a chance to cover a different kind of story.

Philomena

Philomena is an Irish woman now in her late 60s, who was forced to give up a child she had 50 years ago. While living at a convent for unmarried mothers, her child was given to an American couple, and she never saw him again. Sixsmith decides to take on Philomena’s story, and helps her track down the son she never knew.

Sun 17 Nov 4pm Dir: Daniel Auteuil France 2013 102mins subtitled Cast: Daniel Auteuil, Victoire Bélézy, Jean-Pierre Darroussin

Veteran French star Daniel Auteuil (Caché) takes on both directing and acting duties in this trilogy based on playwright Marcel Pagnol’s acclaimed Marius/Fanny/ César plays.

Set in the 1920s, in Pagnol’s hometown of Marseille, the first film centres on Marius, a young man working in his father César’s seaside bar. Although desperate to join the ship crews and explore the world, Marius is tethered to the port by feelings for his childhood friend, Fanny. Things come to a head when the local factory owner Panisse proposes to Fanny and Marius is forced to admit his feelings.

08

A Lady in Paris

The follow up to Marius finds Fanny alone, dealing with the ever increasing advances of Panisse and her own shameful secret.

Anne has been employed to look after Frida by Stephane, a younger man and former lover of the older lady, and this only serves to exacerbate Frida’s bitterness. As she accuses Stephane of not caring for her, she makes her own life and those closest to her more miserable.

Something’s got to give...

Sent there by her family after a long affair with mentor Auguste Rodin ended in disaster, Camille is stifled and desperate to escape. When her younger brother Paul writes of his plan to visit, Camille sees an opportunity to leave the asylum.

Classe Tous Risques 12a Tue 19 & Wed 20 Nov Dir: Claude Sautet France/Italy 1960 110mins subtitled b&w Cast: Lino Ventura, Sandra Milo, Jean-Paul Belmondo A superb French crime movie with all the trappings of a classic – speeding trains, fist fights, shoot outs and a man on the run – which was never previously released in the UK. Claude Sautet’s (Un Coeur En Hiver) Classe Tous Risques follows Abel Davos (Ventura), a Parisian gangster, sentenced to death and on the run in Italy. When he plans “one last job” to raise money to get his family back to France, he finds his friends unwilling to help and is forced to enlist the help of a young stranger called Eric Stark (an electrifying performance from a young and then unknown Jean-Paul Belmondo).

“A CRACKING HARD-BOILED THRILLER AND ALSO AN UTTERLY ABSORBING SLICE-OF-LIFE DRAMA.”  The Guardian

This powerful and moving account of an artist trapped by physical and mental constraints is brought to life by a mesmerizingly restrained performance from Juliette Binoche.

The Selfish Giant 15 Fri 22 – Thu 28 Nov Dir: Clio Barnard UK 2013 91mins Cast: Conner Chapman, Shaun Thomas, Sean Gilder After her brilliant debut with the Andrea Dunbar documentary The Arbor, British filmmaker Clio Barnard returns with a film which is partly inspired by Oscar Wilde’s children’s tale, The Selfish Giant.

The Selfish Giant

13 year-olds Arbor and Swifty are from Bradford with absent or absent-minded fathers. Excluded from school and on ADHD medication, Arbor is hyperactive, aggressive and resourceful. Along with best friend Swifty, the two discover they can make money from stealing bits of metal and selling it to the gruff scrap yard dealer named Kitten.

A triumphant contemporary fable in the vein of Ken Loach’s Kes. “BARNARD’S STORYTELLING IS HEARTFELT AND PASSIONATE, FLUENT AND SUPREMELY CONFIDENT AND THIS IS A HEART-WRENCHING MOVIE.”  The Guardian Captain Phillips

Director Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Ultimatum) delivers a high-octane thriller based on the true story of an American container ship captured by Somali pirates.

Tom Hanks is the eponymous captain on the ship, who comes face to face with Muse, the leader of the pirates, and is soon engaged in a battle of wits. The balance of power shifts when Navy Seals are drafted in to resolve the situation.

Realising that he is out of his depth, Muse takes Phillips hostage and forces him onto a lifeboat, pushing the situation out into open water.

10

One of the most anticipated films of the year features an outstanding performance from Sandra Bullock.

Acclaimed director Alfonso Cuarón (Children of Men) crafts a film that is at once both intimate and infinite, as two astronauts get literally lost in space.

Dr Ryan Stone (Bullock) is a medical engineer on her first a space-walk under the watchful eye of Matt Kowalsky (Clooney), an astronaut on his final mission before retirement. When space debris damages their craft and cuts them off from contact with Earth, the battle begins to return home before their limited oxygen supply runs out.

Tue 3 Dec 1.30pm Dir: Joshua Oppenheimer Denmark/Norway/UK 2012 122mins Cast: Haji Anif, Syamsul Arifin, Safit Pardede

Charting the days surrounding the assassination of John F Kennedy, Parkland weaves together the perspectives of ordinary people caught in extraordinary circumstances.

In the aftermath of a failed coup in Indonesia in the mid-60s, more than a million people were murdered in a bloody cull.

From the doctors and nurses at the Parkland hospital where both the President and Lee Harvey Oswald were admitted, the FBI agents who had Oswald in their grasp, to Oswald’s brother, Robert, the film presents history as witnessed from the sidelines. An engrossing and deeply personal retelling of an historical event.

Le Week-end 15

Director Joshua Oppenheimer interviews those who took part in the mass murders and persecutions, many of whom not only escaped convictions but are celebrated as heroes. When asked to re-enact their horrific past, the killers revel in dressing up to play both murderer and victim. But as they watch the footage of the re-enactment, they begin to realise the impact of their actions.

The Act of Killing

Le Week-end tells the story of long-married British couple Nick and Meg (played by Broadbent and Duncan) who revisit Paris for the first time since their honeymoon in an attempt to revitalise their marriage.

Whilst there, they run into an old academic friend of Nick’s, Morgan (Goldblum) and the encounter prompts the couple to re-imagine what life and marriage might be.

Mon 9 – Thu 12 Dec Dir: Nicole Holofcener US 2013 93mins Cast: Julia Louis-Dreyfus, James Gandolfini, Catherine Keener, Toni Collette

A classic underdog story, telling the real-life experience of Britain’s Got Talent winner Paul Potts. James Corden plays Paul, a mobilephone salesman who lives in rural Wales and dreams of singing opera. Crippled by insecurity, he is encouraged to follow his dreams by his friends and his mother (Julie Walters), despite his father’s disapproval. A stint at opera school in Vienna leads to disappointment, and he considers giving up on his operatic aspirations, until he comes across an advert for a televised talent show, and he considers giving himself one more chance...

A sharp, funny romantic comedy, Enough Said marks one of James Gandolfini’s final appearances.

Gandolfini plays Albert, an academic who embarks on an awkward romance with Eva (Louis-Dreyfus), a masseuse who, like Albert, is a single parent to a college-bound daughter.

As their relationship blossoms, Eva befriends New Age poet Marianne (Keener) who becomes one of her clients. When Eva discovers the ex-husband that Marianne complains about is Albert, she starts to be swayed by Marianne’s constant criticisms of Albert.

Woody Allen’s latest film features an Oscar-worthy performance from Cate Blanchett as Jasmine, a broke and broken socialite.

After the government took away all her fraudulent husband’s assets, Jasmine moves in with her free-spirited and working-class sister Ginger (Hawkins). When she’s not wallowing in self-pity and swallowing anti-depressants, Jasmine constantly criticises Ginger’s choice of men.

With echoes of Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire and the recent Madoff scandal, Blue Jasmine has been hailed by many as one of Allen’s best film in years.

“IT IS PURE MOVIE-GOING PLEASURE.”

 The Guardian

A classic comedy of manners, this film is an old-school battle between prim and proper British sensibilities and American over-familiarity. Tom Hanks and Emma Thompson deliver wonderful performances as Walt Disney and writer P.L. Travers in this account of their relationship during production of the Mary Poppins movie.

Protective of her literary creation, Travers travels to America at the request of Disney, who charms her into begrudgingly selling the rights to her book. As production begins to move forward, Travers soon finds herself affronted by the attempts of the American team to “jazz up” her much-loved character, and she begins to dig her heels in as the movie moves beyond her control.

Victor Fleming’s timeless classic is digitally restored and back on the big screen to mark the centenary of Vivien Leigh’s birth.

This multi-Oscar-winning romance pairs together the feisty Southern belle Scarlett O’Hara (Leigh) with the self-made Rhett Butler (Gable) against the chaotic backdrop of the American Civil War. This special one-off screening will include an interval, during which mulled wine and mince pies will be served.
