In the still of the night, three lives are about to cross…a woman abandoned,
a stranger awaiting his chance and a best-selling author who imagines the
thriller of the year. Deceptively layered and intriguingly misleading, this
highly anticipated new feature from writer/director Claude Lelouch (Oscar
winner for A Man and a Woman) stars Dominique Pinon and Fanny Ardant
as an unlikely couple caught up in a game with high stakes—and deadly
consequences. The thriller takes its title from the name given to pulp fictions
sold in French train stations. Co-starring Audrey Dana. Official Web Site

Forced into an arranged marriage to an older man (Satish Kaushik), she exchanges her Bangladeshi village home for a block of flats in London's East End. Pining for her home and her sister, she struggles to make sense of her existenceand to do her duty to her husband. A man of inflated ideas (and stomach), he sorely tests her compliance. Told from birth that she must not fight her fate, Nazneen submits, devoting her life to raising her family and slapping down her demons of discontent. Until the day that Karim (Christopher Simpson), a hot-headed local man, bursts into her life. Against a background of escalating racial tension, they embark on an affair that finally forces Nazneen to take control of her life.

| The longest-running midnight movie of all time stars Tim Curry as the kinky yet endearing “transsexual from Transylvania” Dr. Frank N. Furter, Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick as his hapless guests Brad and Janet, Meat Loaf as motorcycle-riding rough trade and author Richard O’Brien as the hunchbacked butler Riff Raff. It’s harmless musical fun—a delightful spoof of Hollywood horror movies and Old Dark House melodramas. All of our engagements feature live casts who perform scenes during the movie, and the audience is always welcome to respond to the on-screen action. The Rocky Horror Picture was the first—and is still the best—interactive movie experience! Official Web Site |

| Based on the award-winning book, director Tom Kalin (Swoon) tells the incredible true story of Barbara Daly (Julianne Moore), who married above her class to Brooks Baekeland (Stephen Dillane), the dashing heir to the Bakelite plastics fortune. Beautiful, red-headed and charismatic, Barbara is still no match for her well-bred husband. The birth of the couple's only child, Tony, rocks the uneasy balance in this marriage of extremes. Tony (Eddie Redmayne) is a failure in his father's eyes. As he matures and becomes increasingly close to his lonely mother, the seeds for a tragedy of spectacular decadence are sown. Spanning 1946 to 1972, the drama unfolds in six acts, as the Baekelands' pursuit of social distinction and the glittering 'good life' propels them across the globe. Co-starring Hugh Dancy and Elena Anaya. Official Web Site |
