  • A LIAR’S AUTOBIOGRAPHY

    Subtitled ‘The Untrue Story of Monty Python’s Graham Chapman’, this animated feature is anything but a standard biopic. Using Chapman’s 1980 audiobook recording of his unconventional memoir to tell his story in his own voice, it draws on the work of... Read More

  • BULLHEAD

    Memorable as the conflicted bare-knuckle fighter in Jacques Audiard’s Rust and Bone, star-in-the-making Matthias Schoenaerts is arguably even more remarkable in this earlier offering from his native Belgium.

  • NO

    Chilean director Pablo Larraín hits the target with this sharp-witted, hugely entertaining recreation of the 1988 referendum when General Pinochet announced a free vote on his continuation in power, so confident of victory that he allowed his opponents a brief... Read More

  • ZERO DARK THIRTY

    Director Kathryn Bigelow and writer Mark Boal, the team behind The Hurt Locker, expand their ambitions in this epic account of the hunt for Osama Bin Laden. Forget any notions of triumphalism now however, since the film offers a bracing... Read More
