JULY - AUGUST 2019 YESTERDAY | VITA & VIRGINIA | THE QUEEN’S CORGI | THE DEAD DON’T DIE THE LION KING | SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME | HORRIBLE HISTORIES MIDSOMMAR | THE CURRENT WAR | BLINDED BY THE LIGHT ... and more
HI FILM FANS, The Summer blockbuster season is truly upon us and we will be showing some of the best this summer has to offer. Disney’s THE LION KING promises to be an absolute box office juggernaut, with people going nuts for the new realistic look for Simba and the animals of Pride Rock. We start July with YESTERDAY from director Danny Boyle, about a struggling musician who suddenly becomes the only person who remembers the Beatles. Sticking with a musical theme there’s BLINDED BY THE LIGHT from the director of Bend It Like Beckham about the effect the music of Bruce Springsteen has on a young Indian teenager growing up in England. It wouldn’t be summer without a super-hero and we’ve got SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME. Find out how Peter Parker is adapting to a post-Endgame world in the Marvel Universe. But it’s not all bluster and tunes, there’s smaller scale stories as well. THE CURRENT WAR tells the fascinating true story of the rivalry between Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse Starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Michael Shannon. ANIMALS based on the hit novel by Emma Jane Unsworth about the relationship between two young women on the verge of adulthood. There’s an all-star cast in THE DEAD DON’T DIE led by Bill Murray and Adam Driver in director Jim Jarmusch’s zombie comedy. Plus indie horror MIDSOMMAR from the director of Hereditary. Obviously it’s the Summer school holidays so we have a great range for families with ANGRY BIRDS 2, THE QUEEN’S CORGI, UGLY DOLLS, DORA AND THE LOST CITY OF GOLD and PLAYMOBIL THE MOVIE. MY PICK My choices for this brochure are the space documentaries APOLLO 11 covering the historic NASA mission to land on the Moon, and ARMSTRONG, about the first man himself. They look brilliant and tie in with the 50th Anniversary of the Moon landing. But also the new Quentin Tarantino film ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD looks amazing!

BUZZ An even more hipster SHAUN OF THE DEAD. Director Jim GHOST DOG Jarmusch has always kept to the fringes of genre film-making seemingly deliberately avoiding anything that might accidentally be a crossover hit. But in doing so, has established himself as an indie favourite. Coaxing Bill Murray into a lead role in a zombie comedy is perfect casting and Jarmush’s excellent casting shines through the whole film. ZOMBIELAND
