Bigger Than Life
Location Date Tickets
Mild-mannered schoolteacher Mason's personality is transformed when the drug he is routinely prescribed turns him into an addicted megalomaniac. Director Ray concentrates on the trappings of suburbia that stand around his central character and also contribute to the breakdown. A classic melodrama with a sharp social eye and great filmmaking skill, much deserving of contemporary reassessment.

Bratz: The Movie
Location Date Tickets

Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow 26 Jul Sat 11.30am 0141 332 8128
A Complete History of My Sexual Failures
Location Date Tickets
Documentary filmmaker Waitt sets out to contact all of his ex-girlfriends, to discover what makes him such a rubbish boyfriend, leading to a trip to Edinburgh. A brisk pace, a desire to bare all (literally) and Chris' very ordinary but anxious humanity makes this slightly insular premise engaging viewing.

Irina Palm
Location Date Tickets
Maggie (Faithful) is desperate. In her mid 50s and struggling with preconceptions that she is too old to do anything, until she wanders into a seedy Soho club and winds up being hired to give relief to men through a glory hole. While there is some humour in how this premise is handled (no pun intended), the film can't decide whether it's a sex comedy or a serious social commentary.
Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow 25 Jul29 Jul Fri & Mon 4.15 & 8.40; Sat 2.00 & 6.30; Sun 2.45; Tue 12.45 0141 332 8128
My Best Fiend
Location Date Tickets
Schizophrenic, cowardly, intolerant and frenetically violent, Klaus Kinski was all these things. But he was also one of the finest actors of his generation and the burning heart of Herzog's best films: 'Aguirre - Wrath Of God', 'Woyseck', 'Fitzcarraldo' and 'Nosferatu'. 'My Best Fiend' is Herzog's affectionate goodbye letter to his old friend and frequent enemy who died in 1991.
Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow 27 Jul Sun 7.30 0141 332 8128
My Winnipeg
Location Date Tickets
Recreating his Winnipeg childhood with various actors playing the roles of siblings and veteran actress Savage as his demanding mum, acquired-taste director and postmodernist auteur Maddin gets the balance between acerbic nostalgia and indulgent self-centredness just right.

Noise
Location Date Tickets
A young Melbourne cop finds his relationship slipping away due to frequent late nights spent working on a murder case. With a community beset by doubt and a young man steadily losing grip with normality, Saville's debut feature works at once as a wry meditation on contemporary Australian life and as a tense relationship drama.
Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow 29 Jul Tue 6.15 0141 332 8128
Otto, or Up With Dead People
Location Date Tickets
Otto is a gay zombie facing an existential crisis in Berlin, who meets an experimental filmmaker out to change the world with her 'political porno zombie movie'. La Bruce combines horror, pornography, silent film and documentary styles, breaking all the rules in the process.

Paris

Duris plays Pierre, a young dancer whose future is suddenly left hanging in the balance by a medical diagnosis; Binoche is his unfulfilled sister, taking a career break to care for him. A warm human drama from the director of 'Pot Luck' and 'Russian Dolls'.

Smiley Face
Location Date Tickets
After 2004's 'Mysterious Skin', Araki's latest is something of a departure. Faris is Jane, an out-of-work actress who fills her days with getting high and little else. After erroneously eating an entire batch of dope-filled cupcakes, Jane ventures out into the world on a drug-fuelled odyssey that can only end in disaster.

Summer Hours (L'Heure d'ete)
Location Date Tickets
It's the 75th birthday of widowed matriarch Helene, and attending the celebrations are her three children, grandchildren and elderly housekeeper, who must decide collectively what to do with their artistic inheritance when Helene passes away soon after. Not tied down to a conventional three-act structure, the film's themes emerge naturally from the drama.

Written On The Wind
Location Date Tickets
A fine film and one of Hollywood's best ever melodramas. Four characters connected to a Texan oil family act on their passions rather than their intellects as love and desire concoct a tempestuous mix leading to tragedy. A prototype soap opera, but incisive in its criticism on the middle-class and notions of masculinity.
