Abba The Movie
Date	Location
Made at the height of their popularity, the wafer thin plotline consists of the four Swedes being pursued across Oz by a Sydney journalist. Features a brief, heartstopping appearance by Lou from 'Neighbours' as their bodyguard. No, it really does.
14 Sep Sun 1.00 & 5.30	Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow

Bamako
Date	Location
African political drama following a mock trial in the Malian city of Bamako between African civil society and Western financial institutions. Avoiding dour didacticism by contrasting the proceedings with snapshots of everyday life, this is more than an exercise in the iniquities of globalization.
18 Sep Thu 6.00	Filmhouse, Edinburgh

Death Note: The Last Name
Date	Location
A direct follow-on from Kaneko's 'Death Note', this supernatural thriller rendered in bright comic book animation has enjoyed a huge cult following in Japan.
10 Sep–11 Sep Wed & Thu 3.15 & 8.25	Filmhouse, Edinburgh

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
Date	Location
Julian Schnabel's third biopic tells the tale of 'Elle' editor Jean-Dominique Bauby (Almaric) who, after suffering a debilitating stroke, authored a slim memoir, 'The Diving Bell and the Butterfly'. This is an unusual, rich, formless and challenging film, which fits perfectly with the triumph of the human spirit theme that runs through Bauby's core text.
24 Sep 7.30	The CatStrand, Castle Douglas

A Fistful Of Dollars
Date	Location
Based on Kurosawa's samurai classic 'Yojimba', the spaghetti western that set the ball rolling has Clint squinting into the sun as The Man With No Name. An amoral figure, he profits from both sides as two duelling gangs fight it out in a small town. Ennio Morricone's distinctive score underlines the stylish delights in this the first of Leone's 'spaghetti western' trilogy.
12 Sep–13 Sep, 14 Sep Sun 8.15	Filmhouse, Edinburgh

Flashbacks of a Fool (Senior Screening)
Date	Location
Set in present-day California and an English seaside resort circa 1972, Joe Scott (Craig between Bond outings), is a washed up Hollywood star who recalls a traumatic teenage experience that leads to professional success and personal self-destruction. Good supporting performances and rather pedestrian flashbacks make for an interesting, if not outstanding drama about the repercussions of childhood folly.
10 Sep Wed 10.30am	Odeon Dumfries, Dumfries
10 Sep Wed 11.45am	Odeon Dunfermline, Dunfermline

Happy-Go-Lucky (Senior Screening)
Date	Location
Leigh returns with a familiar, yet reassuringly different film, an affectionate portrait of carefree 30-something Londoner Poppy (Hawkins) and the minutiae of her everyday life. About everything and nothing, the downtime and the uptime, this is life-affirming stuff.

If . . .
Date	Location
On the face of it, the story of a student-led rebellion in an English public school might be taken as a metaphor for the profound social change that had gone on in the 60s, but there's a much broader attack on bourgeois values going on, and the relevance of the piece to today's political culture remains entirely undiminished. 'If . . . ' is also notable for its narrational experiment with flashback, monochrome and inversion of the audience's rational expectation. Add to that an outstanding…
13 Sep Sat 3.30	Filmhouse, Edinburgh

Love in the Time of Cholera
Date	Location
Lousy adaptation of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's literary masterpiece about one man's unquenchable passion for one woman spanning 50 years in Columbia in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
5 Sep–7 Sep Fri & Sun 8.15; Sat 5.15	Macrobert, Stirling

Once
Date	Location
A busker strikes up a friendship with a sparky young Czech immigrant on the streets of Dublin. As their relationship evolves, Hansard's own songs are woven into the narrative, transforming it into an understated musical as they play their songs for one another.
11 Sep Thu 7.45	Perth Concert Hall, Perth

Sex and the City: The Movie
Date	Location
A few years on from packing away the series, the characters are back and fleshed out, the individual angst of each woman realised enough to engage even the hardened cynics. Like life however, the film isn't perfect, the beginning recap is clumsy, the ending is rushed, and the version of feminist power and female solidarity the film peddles is slightly simplistic.
8 Sep Mon 2.00	Cineworld Falkirk, Falkirk
