Ravishing and deeply felt, Sunset Song is the latest film from British screenwriter and director Terence Davies. Adapted from Lewis Grassic Gibbon’s classic novel, it’s set in coastal Aberdeenshire on the eve of World War I. Agyness Deyn gives an excellent performance as Chris Guthrie, the teenage daughter in a farming family ruled by an oppressive, violent father; and when tragedy strikes, she finds a curious liberty in the dissolution of their family. Beautifully filmed, it has plenty of Davies’ usual nostalgia and impressionistic grace, but also depicts the grim realities of life in this rural world; making this a uniquely powerful picture. ICO

Gerry is an addicted gambler, a man who can’t keep away from the poker table despite the mountains of debt he’s accumulated. He meets the charismatic Curtis, who agrees to stake him on a trip to a legendary Mississippi poker game, where they dream of the fortune that awaits them.

Peggy Guggenheim – Art Addict offers a rare look into Guggenheim’s world: blending the abstract, the colourful, the surreal and the salacious, to portray a life that was as complex and unpredictable as the artwork Peggy revered and the artists she pushed forward.

Starring: Harrison Ford, John Boyega

The unprecedented victories of Lance Armstrong were shockingly undermined when, in 2012, it was revealed that he had spent his career undergoing the most sophisticated doping program in the history of cycling. This docu-drama from director Stephen Frears and writer John Hodge (Trainspotting) stars Ben Foster as the seven-time Tour de France champion, and Chris O’Dowd as David Walsh, the journalist who struggled for years to bring Armstrong’s transgressions to light.

Pixar Animation Studios takes you on an epic journey into the world of dinosaurs where an Apatosaurus named Arlo makes an unlikely human friend. While travelling through a harsh and mysterious landscape, Arlo learns the power of confronting his fears and discovers what he is truly capable of. Family matinee prices apply.

In 1975 Brian Clough had gone from being football’s most exciting young manager to being seen as impossible to work with. His only offer of work came from a run-down, second division club, Nottingham Forest whose brief glory days in the 1950s were seen as well behind them. With interviews from every player of that remarkable time, I Believe in Miracles tells how Clough pulled off the greatest team story ever told.

“A bittersweet, beautifully textured road movie that plays like a conscious throwback to the lost souls and open highways of 1970s American cinema.” Variety
