What are these?

Female Agents
Date	Location
Allegedly based on a true story: in spring 1944 Churchill oversees a suicidal sabotage and rescue mission by female members of the French Resistance - a showgirl (Gillain), an explosives expert (Déborah François), a prostitute (Depardieu), a radio operator (Maya Sansa) and their leader (Marceau). Salome is an arch stylist and copyist but beyond the handful of great performances this feels like another po-faced TV mini series: interesting but pedestrian.

The Spy Who Loved Me
Date	Location
Digital restoration of the classic in which Bond must team up with his Russian female counterpart to solve the mystery of the disappearing nuclear missile carrying submarines.

The Apartment
Date	Location
This new print of Wilder's corrosive 1960 lampoon of corporate America tells the story of spineless insurance statistician CC Baxter (Lemmon). Having fallen into the practice of leasing his apartment to his superiors for illicit liaisons, Baxter is rewarded with high-speed promotion. All of which suits him fine until he realises that one of the ladies being taken back is the girl of his dreams.

12 Jul Sat 2.00	Filmhouse, Edinburgh

Heartbeat Detector
Date	Location
This French corporate thriller adapted from François Emmanuel's novel 'La Question Humaine' is demanding and rewarding in equal measure. Amalric is the psychologist of a German-French petrochemical company who's asked to discretely assess the mental state of the Paris office's CEO (Lonsdale) until disturbing links between his firm and the Nazis start to take their toll. A beautifully executed and horribly convincing film.

Vera Cruz
Date	Location
A colourful Western chronicling cynical Southerner (Cooper) and calculating crook (Lancaster) as they become increasingly embroiled in Maximillian's imperial court and the Juarez revolutionaries in 1860s Mexico.
