The Duchess (12A) – Dir. Saul Dibb
USA 2008, 1h50m

The DuchessBased on the best-selling historical biography by Amanda Foreman,‘The Duchess’ is an intelligent and compelling portrait of a remarkable woman.

Married young to the cool and distant Duke of Devonshire, intimate of ministers and princes, Georgiana was a fashion icon, a doting mother and a shrewd political operator. But at the core of her story is a desperate search for warmth and love.

Bring a Baby Screening: Wednesday 29 October at 1.00.

Lou Reed’s Berlin (12A) – Dir. Julian Schnabel
USA UK 2007, 1h25m

Lou Reed’s Berlin Directed by ‘The Diving Bell & the Butterfly’ auteur Julian Schnabel and filmed over five nights in Brooklyn, Lou Reed performs in entirety his concept album of a doomed love affair between two heroin addicts against the harsh backdrop of the Berlin Wall. Originally dismissed in 1973 for being too bleak and austere, Schnabel’s wonderfully decayed and decadent set design, along with performances by Antony Hegarty and actress Emmanuelle Seigner, both enhances and celebrates one of rock’s most misunderstood albums.
