THE KING’S SPEECH (12A) 118 minutes
Documenting the incredible but little-known friendship between King George VI (Colin Firth) and the speech therapist who cured him of a debilitating stammer (Geoffrey Rush), Tom Hooper’s (THE DAMNED UNITED) film is at once an odd-couple comedy, an affectionate biopic and a stirring period piece illuminating a turbulent era of British history.
Wed 14 Dec, 11.00am
JANE EYRE (PG) 121 minutes
Starring Mia Wasikowska and Michael Fassbender, Charlotte Brontë’s timeless gothic novel gets a suitably atmospheric and faithful adaptation from up-and-coming director Cary Fukunaga (SIN NOMBRE).
Thu 15 Dec, 11.00am
WHITE CHRISTMAS (U) 120 minutes
A true Christmas classic starring Bing Cosby and Danny Kaye: A successful song-and-dance team become romantically involved with a sister act and team up to save the failing Vermont inn for their former commanding general.
