Casablanca
Date	Location
You must remember this … Bogart being impossibly noble, Bergman torn between two lovers, Claude Rains playing both ends against the middle, devious Nazis, a fogbound airport, a piano-player tinkling that tune. A wonderful hill of beans. View full details

The Artist

Carnage
Date	Location
A playground spat between two boys causes their parents to try to settle their differences.

Fast, funny and filthy. View full details

Cool Hand Luke
Date	Location
Lucas 'Luke' Jackson (Newman) rewrites the rule book in coolness when he is locked up for a petty crime. Even the officers fall for his laconic charms, but the pressure of remaining on a pedestal soon takes its toll. Remember, nobody can eat fifty eggs. Superb adaptation of Donn Pearce's Christ allegory novel. Highly recommended. View full details

Puss in Boots
Date	Location
Puss (Banderas) and Humpty Dumpty (Galifianakis) attempt to steal magic beans from Jack and Jill, with Hayek as feline accomplice Kitty Softpaws.

The Tin Drum (Die Blechtrommel)

Fantastic, witty, clever and deeply memorable version of Gunther Grass' analogous drama about an intellectual boy who refuses to grow in protest at the world around him (it's actually an attack on those who stayed passive in Nazi Germany). Buñuel favourite Jean-Claude Carrière adapted Grass' monster of a book. View full details

Contagion
Date	Location
Soderbergh revives the type of all-star disaster movie last seen in the 1970s with this sober account of a deadly virus which threatens the world's population. It lacks any central heart or focus, focusing on the bigger picture rather than clichéd dramatics. View full details

Dirty Dancing
Date	Location
The plot – in the summer of 1963 bad boy Johnny (Swayze) meets good girl Baby (Grey) and teaches her hip grinding, eventually winning the respect of her parents. Sure it's full of stereotyping, bad dialogue and a pre-teen sugar coated prurience, but decades on Dirty Dancing still has the ability to send a generation of women all gooey.

Girl, Interrupted
Date	Location
Ryder plays Susanna Kaysen, whose memoirs of her time spent in a mental institution in the late 60s provide the basis for this film, but the star of the show is Lisa (Jolie), a gorgeous, unpredictable sociopath who establishes herself as Susanna's best friend and worst enemy. The film does veer too far into tissue territory, but this remains a sensitive and persuasive piece of work. View full details

Happy Feet
Date	Location
A clumsily plotted but totally charming animated musical from the makers of Babe about tap dancing and singing penguins deep in Antarctica. With solid songs and some genuinely excellent voiceover performances, Happy Feet is probably the best of the Christmas family films. View full details

The Lion King
Date	Location
The first Disney animated feature to be based on an original story rather than a traditional folk or fairy tale, The Lion King retains all of the studio's markers: impeccable animation, jolly songs, colourful characters and a strong moral guideline. Solid family fare. View full details and ticket info

Man on a Ledge
Date	Location
A disgraced former cop (Worthington) threatens to jump from a Manhattan rooftop, but it becomes clear to a police psychologist (Banks) that it's a distraction from a heist across the street. Leth nicely balances action, drama and humour, and a strong cast (notably Bell) lend more quality to the film than it probably deserves. View full details
