Annette - Sunday 5th December 5pm

 Adam Driver and Marian Cotillard dancing in large waves at sea

Annette is a film likely to split our audience; will you love or hate it? A musical with music (and story) by Sparks, where Annette is played by... a puppet. Adam Driver is Henry, an extrovert stand-up comedian who falls in love with Ann, an Opera singer (Marian Cotillard). Their baby, Annette, threatens to bring about the end of his career, but has special powers of her own which Henry is happy to exploit to get his career back

"The most original film of 2021, Annette is a ride like no other, a spellbinding waltz in a storm." - Ian Freer, Empire Magazine

Night Of The Kings - Sunday 28th November 5pm

 


Imagine being sent to prison in an isolated place, miles from anywhere. Now imagine that this prison is run by an inmate with total power, and, finally, imagine that he tells you that you have to tell a story to the whole prison or you will die. This is Roman's fate in our film this week, Night Of The Kings

"If you’ve ever floundered when asked to tell a joke off the cuff, you’ll feel Roman's pain. Except he has it much worse. He has to weave an entire story. All night long. Surrounded by 200 jeering prisoners nicknamed things like 'Half-Mad' and 'Petrol'. Not ideal". – Huw Oliver, Time Out.

Limbo - Sunday 21st November 5pm

 



Director Ben Sharrock is a Scot who has previously lived and worked with refugees in Syria and Algeria. He set out to make this week's film, Limbo, to show the plight of refugees not in their homeland but here in Britain where they wait for the process to see if they will be accepted or not. 
"For a film that is so infused with sadness... Limbo is remarkably funny - a gentle, empathic kind of humour that is derived from the men's bleak existences, without mocking them." - Wendy Ide, Observer.

The Father - Sunday 14th November 5pm

 

Is The Father another film made for Keswick? A great British Drama starring Anthony Hopkins and Olivia Coleman; how good can it get?

A film written by the director from his own stage play, especially for Anthony Hopkins who plays the Father; maybe no surprise then that Anthony Hopkins has had amazing reviews and has become the oldest winner of an Oscar for Best Actor.

"Haunting and credible, powered by some unshakable performances." - Hannah Strong, Little White Lies
