THIS week brings six films to complement the popular Ian McEwan page to screen drama The Children Act, which is running for the second week.

After the dark Icelandic ‘dramedy’ Under the Tree last week, Ilkley will get to sample two new foreign films this week. The first is the Polish, Cannes Award-winning romantic smoky noir drama, Cold War, directed by Oscar winning Pawel Pawlikowski. Using Polish and French speaking actors, the film is set in the 1950s Cold War in Poland, Berlin, Yugoslavia and Paris. Shot in black and white; it captures an impossible romance at an impossible time in history. This film is thoughtful, passionate and beautifully shot but still very accessible even for those not used to subtitles.

It’s been over 20 years since the last Oscar Wilde biopic and you have to go back even further to the 1960s to find any other films about the great Irish wordsmith. The Happy Prince focuses on last days of Wilde. It is very much the passion project of Rupert Everett, who wrote, directed and stars as Wilde. Everett has starred in many Wilde plays on stage and screen throughout a long acting career, even playing Wilde in The Judas Kiss at the Hampstead Theatre in 2012. The Happy Prince is for anyone who has ever seen and read any Oscar Wilde and wondered who is the man behind the pen.

In the last few years there have been many remakes and reboots, of cult films, many with, dishearteningly, nothing new to say. Predator gets a new lick of paint from writer/director Shane Black. Black was part of the writing team on the original 1987 Arnie cult classic, Predator. He even managed to get a small part on it. The closeness to the original and in depth knowledge of the action genre means the new Predator reboot should not be overlooked!

The Godfather is widely regarded as one of the greatest films of all time. Based on the best-selling novel by Mario Puzo and superbly crafted by Francis Ford Coppola, it also contains one of the greatest screen performances of all time by Marlon Brando. Stanley Kubrick once commented that The Godfather has one of the best casts ever assembled on film and could be the greatest film ever made.

Saturdays Kids Club brings a fantastic opportunity to share the original 1971 Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory with your kids. Based on the classic Roald Dahl book, the zany, weird and wonderful film will bring you plenty of nostalgia whilst leaving your kids with a unique cinematic experience.

For those that missed the previous showings earlier in the year, the intense, innovatively shot documentary, Time Trial, the story of professional cyclist David Millar, is back for two screening only. This is a cycling documentary like no other.
