Le Havre
Date	Location
In the dismal seaport of Le Havre, elderly shoe-shiner Marcel (Wilms) attempts to help a young African immigrant boy to cross the Channel to a better life.

Jo Nesbo's Headhunters (Hodejegerne)
Date	Location
Roger (Hennie) is a successful headhunter living beyond his means, who supplements his income with a double life as a gentleman thief, until one of his victims (Coster-Waldau) fights back. Tyldum's adaptation of Jo Nesbo's novel is somewhere between a Road Runner cartoon and a Coen Brothers thriller: breathlessly, outrageously entertaining. View full details

Monsieur Lazhar
Date	Location
When a popular teacher in a Montreal school commits suicide, Algerian immigrant Bachir Lazhar (Fellag) replaces her, but the grieving pupils don't suspect his own struggles with family tragedy and imminent deportation.

Le Quai des Brumes (Port of Shadows)
Date	Location
In pre-WWII Le Havre, army deserter Jean (Gabin) tries to protect beautiful Nelly (Morgan) from a gang of small-time hoods. The great collaboration between director Carné and poet/screenwriter Prévert begins here; it's dark, bitter, fatalistic and wonderful, and has been given a meticulous and well-deserved digital restoration. View full details

The Raid
Date	Location
An Indonesian SWAT team storms a Jakarta tower block intending to take down crime lord Tama (Sahetapy), but finds itself trapped.

This Must be the Place
Date	Location
Reclusive rock star Cheyenne (Penn) goes in search of the SS officer who humiliated his father at Auschwitz.

Albert Nobbs
Date	Location
In 1890s Dublin, Albert (Close) is a hardworking waiter in a hotel who has concealed for years the fact that he's really a woman – only to be found out by fellow employee Hubert (McTeer), who is also one. A sad, strange and touching tale, which however never really pays off. View full details

All in Good Time
Date	Location
East is East writer Ayub Khan-Din adapts his own play (itself based on a story by Bill Naughton) about a British-Asian newly-married couple (Ritchie, Karan) whose intrusive family continually hinders them from having sex for the first time.

30 May 7pm	Odeon Leeds-Bradford, Bradford

American Reunion
Date	Location
The American Pie gang have a 13-year reunion and contemplate some familiar problems about love, sex and intimacy. A fun nostalgia trip that rates the heart as important as the other bodily parts; the original cast are as likable (or not) as ever. Nothing very revelatory but plenty of laughs. View full details

Beloved (Les bien-aimés)
Date	Location
Elegiac musical contrasting the lives of Madeleine (Sagnier and Deneuve as younger and older incarnations) and her daughter Vera (Mastroianni), who were young in the 60s and the early 21st century respectively. A sprawling, poignant, ambitious epic of unrequited love. View full details

Damsels in Distress
Date	Location
The titular damsels are a group of female undergrads led by the obsessive-compulsive Violet (Gerwig, good) who set about rescuing their fellow students from perceived ills. It's good to have director Stillman back after 14 years, even if the pointed wit has been replaced by studied silliness. View full details
30 May–31 May Wed & Thu 1.45pm	Odeon Panton St, London SW1Y

Dark Shadows
Date	Location
18th century vampire Barnabas Collins (Depp) escapes from his coffin to find himself in Maine in 1972. It's fun, thanks to a smart script and plenty of surreal humour; Burton regulars Depp and Bonham-Carter are a hoot, but Moretz and Green could have used more restraint. View full details
