Dir: Ken Loach (UK 2009, 116 mins)

Struggling to cope after another failed marriage and lumbered with two deadbeat stepsons, Manchester postman Eric Bishop is at the end of his tether. But in his darkest hour, he receives inspiration and guidance from his hero: footballing philosopher, Eric Cantona. Ken Loach’s most entertaining film yet.

The performances have a superb naturalistic air – making Mid-August Lunch a meal you’ll definitely savour and remember.

Tuesday 30th March - Sleep Furiously (U)
Dir: GideonKoppel (England/Wales 2008, 94 mins)

A gorgeous meditative documentary on what it means to live in a small farming community in mid-Wales. Small scale agriculture is disappearing and the generation who inhabited a pre-mechanized world is dying out. A poetic and profound journey into a world of endings and beginnings; a world of stuffed owls, sheep and fire.

Tuesday 13th April - Fish Tank (15)
Dir: Andrea Arnold (UK 2009, 123 mins)112 mins)

Mia is 15, all elbows and anger, going at her life in a rundown apartment complex in Essex as if it were one long skirmish in this exceptionally well-crafted drama. The film features Katie Jarvis, a 17-year-old newcomer who so completely captures the innocence, cynicism and rage of a child of poverty and divorce on the edge of adulthood that it feels as if you are spying on Mia, so achingly real, so tangible does her world seem here.

Tuesday 20th April - Vicki Cristina Barcelona (PG13)
Dir: Woody Allen (Spain/USA 2008, 96 mins)

A sexy romp involving a ménage a trois that keeps changing like the ever-changing tide of love itself. Its central location in the city of Barcelona, bathed in a golden glow and filled with its distinctive Gaudi architecture, perfectly captures the romance in this tale of adventures of the heart. Javier Bardem casts his bedroom eyes at Scarlett Johansson and Rebecca Hall until the fiery, scene-stealing Penelope Cruz bursts onto the scene.
