Downton Abbey: A New Era CERTIFICATE PG RUNNING TIME 126 MINUTES START TIME 8 PM |
|
|
The Crawley family goes on a grand journey to the South of France to uncover the mystery of the dowager countess's newly inherited villa.
Excellent Sequel Feels Like the Glory Days of the Series. Simon Curtis' sequel beautifully blends lighthearted joys and melancholy in a way that reminds of 'Downton Abbey' at its best. Collider.com But this is a movie for the fans—almost a gift, really. The last two-plus years have been a lot for everyone, and to escape to late 1920s England and France in all its splendor is a delight. All the things we adore about Downton are still there.

Belfast Oscar: best original screenplay 2022 CERTIFICATE 12 RUNNING TIME 94 MINUTES START TIME 8 PM |
|
|
BELFAST is a movie straight from the director Kenneth Branagh's own experience. A nine-year-old boy must chart a path towards adulthood through a world that has suddenly turned upside down. His stable and loving community and everything he thought he understood about life is changed forever but joy, laughter, music and the formative magic of the movies remain.
A twinkly-eyed childhood memoir - and rigorously fashioned to be an Oscar frontrunner. The Independent Belfast is exactly the kind of film that wins an audience award at a festival — highly entertaining and beautifully done without ever being innovative or challenging, finding the universal in the specific, the upbeat in dire circumstances.

Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot's Egyptian vacation aboard a glamorous river steamer turns into a terrifying search for a murderer when a picture-perfect couple's idyllic honeymoon is tragically cut short.
