January the 1st, early morning. The telephone rings. Murphy wakes up next to his young wife and 2-year-old child. He listens to his voicemail: Electra’s mother, sick with worry, wants to know whether he has heard from her daughter. Electra’s been missing for a long time. She’s afraid something really bad has happened to her. Over the course of a long rainy day, Murphy finds himself alone in his apartment, reminiscing about the greatest love affair of his life. A burning passion full of promises, games, excesses and mistakes… Famously taciturn and a recluse in his later years, Marlon Brando nevertheless kept an intensely personal audio diary comprising many hours of intimate reflections and recollections over several decades. Access to these cassette recordings has provided renowned documentarian Stevan Riley (FIRE IN BABYLON) with a unique opportunity allowing us to hear Brando talking about his childhood and adolescence, the development of his acting technique and, particularly revealingly, his troubled and often tragic family relationships. “Moving and revelatory.” THE INDEPENDENT In STAR MEN four exceptional astronomers celebrate 50 years of work and friendship on a return road trip to the southwestern United States, recapturing youthful adventures and recounting each other’s influences on the most exciting period in astronomy’s history. In old age and facing death, their journey through memory and the breathtaking landscape provokes a rich series of reflections on how their profound work on the universe has reflected back on the individual, affecting their sense of religious faith, how life may have purpose, and what is knowable and unknowable. Woody Allen’s Miles Monroe, a health food loving clarinet players, goes into hospital for routine surgery and wakes up 200 years later in a future where eating hot fudge sundaes and smoking cigarettes are good for you. Having slept through the apocalypse, Miles wakes up with his neurosis still intact. The world is now an impersonal police state, where curious men of science, with no sense of humour or humanity, ply him for information about the long-forgotten past.

As an immediate connection sparks between them, the innocence of their first encounter dims and their connection deepens. With CAROL director Todd Haynes has created a beautiful adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s seminal novel, THE PRICE OF SALT and a powerful companion piece to his 2002 film FAR FROM HEAVEN. The attention to detail is perfect, the script elegant but most importantly the casting is spot on. Blanchett and Mara inhabit their roles so perfectly that it is in the spaces between the lines, the glances, the gestures, we find ourselves truly believing in this love story. “Haynes crafts a tender, devastating romance but also surveys a battleground of power and control.” Isabel Stevens, SIGHT & SOUND DIRECTOR: DETAILS: Todd Haynes UK/US/FR, 2015, 119mins, 15 STARRING: Rooney Mara, Sarah Paulson, Cate Blanchett C R E AT U R E S O F T H E N I G H T T U E S D AY W O N D E R !

From the imagination of director Guillermo del Toro (PAN’S LABYRINTH) comes a gothic romance sure to send chills down the spine of even the bravest among you. Follow Chris Cotter, an American traveler, as he explores a common migration path through Ethiopia and into Israel, tracking the plight of Eritrean refugees. Chris and his crew visit several refugee camps, including the never-before-documented Afar region. The refugees tell stories of oppression, torture, and survival. Searching for solutions, Chris speaks to various NGOs and experts, including Assistant Secretary of State, Anne Richard. The outlook is bleak, but the spirit of the Eritrean refugees is hard to ignore. During an unexpected truce that breaks out in No Man’s Land during the first Christmas of World War I, a conscripted German opera singer and his visiting soprano girlfriend strike up a version of Silent Night that attracts plaintive bagpipe accompaniment from a Scottish padre. “Work hard, increase production, prevent accidents, and be happy.” THX 1138, George Lucas’ directorial debut, presents a cold, dystopian future in which individual thought and love are forbidden. But two citizens dare to rebel. Presented in collaboration with Meeting Point Leeds, these two screenings explore the image of journeying and the journeying of the image in the 21st Century. Taking lead from the Syrian collective Aboundarraa’s notion of ‘emergency cinema’ and the long legacies this inherits we hope to confront the place of culture in a state of emergency. Including films by Sue Clayton, Pratibha Parmar and William Raban. BLACK SOULS is a tale of violence and complex morality passed down through the generations. The Carbone family consists of three brothers, Luigi and Rocco who are engaged in the family’s illegal drug business and Luciano who has remained in their ancestral town herding goats. When Luciano’s son travels to Milan to force his way into the family business his rash behaviour reignites a bitter feud with a rival family. A cryptic message from an unlikely source sets James Bond navigating the layers of a sinister organisation known as SPECTRE. As M continues fighting political pressures that threaten the future of MI6, Bond draws closer to uncovering a hidden truth that threatens to destroy everything he has fought to protect. Supported by Film Hub North, led by Showroom Workstation. “There are shades of GOMORRAH and THE GODFATHER in Francesco Munzi’s slow-burning Italian crime drama” TELEGRAPH BROOKLYN tells the story of Eilis Lacey, a young Irish immigrant navigating her way through 1950s Brooklyn. Lured by the promise of America, Eilis departs Ireland and the comfort of her mother’s home for the shores of New York City.The initial shackles of homesickness quickly diminish as a fresh romance sweeps Eilis into the intoxicating charm of love. But soon, her new vivacity is disrupted by her past, and Eilis must choose between two countries and the lives that exist within.

The film follows the band on a tour of the UK in the run up to the 2015 General Election, visiting the neglected, broken down and boarded up parts of the country that many would prefer to ignore. Part music doc, part look at the state of the nation, the documentary features individuals and communities attempting to find hope among the ruins, with a blistering soundtrack provided by the Sleaford Mods. Hurst’s 1951 adaptation of the classic Charles Dickens novel A Christmas Carol is probably the most famous (excluding of course the Muppets version which is wonderful for a whole other set of reasons) in part because of Alastair Sims brilliant take on Ebenezer Scrooge, the bitter old miser who is given a second chance by the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future. When film-maker Leila Sansour returned to Bethlehem in 2005, she planned to make a documentary about the Palestinian city she couldn’t wait to leave as a teenager. However, her cousin Carol convinces her to stay and build upon the legacy of her father, who founded the local university in 1973. Realising that the “Separation” wall erected by the Israelis is isolating a oncethriving destination for pilgrims and tourists, Leila and Carol devise a campaign to encourage visitors to return to the birthplace of Jesus Christ and apply for passports giving them honorary citizenship. TO THE EDITOR OF AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHER revolves around the testimonies and documents linked to the complex and often contested history of Pavilion, established in Leeds in 1983 as the UK’s first feminist photography centre. The film examines a radical shift in photography whilst also foregrounding the problems of presenting history through archival fragments and personal recollections.

The film tells the true story of the relationship between Alan Bennett and the singular Miss Shepherd (Maggie Smith), a woman of uncertain origins who ‘temporarily’ parked her van in Bennett’s London driveway and proceeded to live there for 15 years. Their unique story is funny, poignant and life-affirming. BRIDGE OF SPIES tells the true story of James Donovan (Tom Hanks), a Brooklyn lawyer who finds himself thrust into the centre of the Cold War when the CIA sends him on the near-impossible task to negotiate the release of a captured American U-2 pilot. Screenwriters Matt Charman, Ethan Coen and Joel Coen, together with legendary director Steven Spielberg, have woven Donovan’s remarkable experience into a story that vividly brings his personal journey to life. Finally we have a return to form for Johnny Depp in BLACK MASS as he stars as notorious mobster James “Whitey” Bulger. In 1970s South Boston, FBI Agent John Connolly persuades Irish mobster Jimmy Bulger to collaborate with the FBI in order to eliminate their common enemy: the Italian mob. BLACK MASS tells the story of this unholy alliance, which spiralled out of control, allowing Whitey to evade law enforcement while consolidating his power and becoming one of the most ruthless and dangerous gangsters in Boston history.

This is the dilemma Harry and Sally debate during one long post college road trip. When they reconnect years later they’re no closer to agreeing on an answer but the debate is some of the most enchanting, funny and romantic ever committed to celluloid. Perfect festive watching. Hector McAdam is embarking on his annual journey from Scotland to a London shelter, where Christmas cheer and a turkey dinner await him. But, aware this might be his last, Hector opts to reconnect with his past and reunite with those he left behind. Life without a home isn’t easy but Hector is resilient, accepting of people, and life, as they come. He meets with friendship and kindness, disappointment and cruelty, discomfort and joy. His crosscountry odyssey brings chance encounters with companions old and new who need his support as much as he needs theirs. “When you’re racing, it’s life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting” Steve McQueen In Moscow on the eve of WWI, medical student Yuri Zhivago meets the beautiful Lara, setting in motion a fateful romance that turns their lives upside down. Featuring excellent supporting performances by Alec Guinness, Rod Steiger, Geraldine Chaplin and Tom Courtenay (who recently took our breath away in 45 YEARS), DOCTOR ZHIVAGO holds at its heart an intensely human and passionate relationship, challenged by the monumental politics of tradition and war. Helping his father, a cantankerous riverboat captain, stave off a takeover from a wealthy rival, Keaton finds himself in many a funny situation in this wonderful atmospheric comedy perfect for banishing the post-Christmas blues. Active stunt work complements brilliantly observed jokes, including a cyclone sequence which manages to destroy the whole town but leaves Keaton untouched. “There can be few more satisfying movie experiences” THE GUARDIAN JOY is the wild story of a family across four generations centred on the girl who becomes the woman who founds a business dynasty and becomes a matriarch in her own right. Betrayal, treachery, the loss of innocence and the scars of love, pave the road in this intense emotional and human comedy about becoming a true boss of family and enterprise facing a world of unforgiving commerce. Allies become adversaries and adversaries become allies as Joy’s inner life and fierce imagination carry her through the storm she faces in the magnificent story of family, loyalty, and love.
