Just in time for summer, we’re thrilled to present Finding Emily, a homegrown romcom very much in the style of Notting Hill and Rye Lane. Set in Manchester, the film follows Owen, a young musician who goes on a night out and meets Emily, the girl of his dreams — only to discover the next morning that the phone number she gave him is missing a digit. So, with the help of another Emily (a psychology student with her own motive for joining the hunt), he begins a quest across campus to find his elusive love.

2025 | Dir David Frankel | USA | 119 min
Stars: Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt

Twenty years on, The Devil Wears Prada 2 struts back onto the scene with its original cast and a fresh dose of high-fashion drama. Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) — ice-cold stare intact — is fighting to keep her fashion magazine Runway relevant as the print media world crumbles. Her former protégé Anne Hathaway returns in considerably better shoes, but it's former assistant-turned-rival Emily Blunt who may prove Miranda's most formidable foe yet. Stilettos are sharpened, alliances tested, and the drama is more fabulous than ever.

Stars: Jodie Foster, Daniel Auteil, Virginie Efira

Jodie Foster plays Lilian Steiner, an American psychiatrist adrift in Paris — divorced, estranged from her son, and losing herself in her patients' troubles. When one of her patients is found dead in an apparent suicide, Steiner can't let it go. Armed with little more than professional instinct and the reluctant company of her ex-husband played by Daniel Auteil, she begins to dig. What unfolds is part Hitchcockian thriller and part wry relationship comedy.
French with English subtitles.

2026 | Dir Marc Evans | UK | 91 min
Stars: Eddie Barth, Irene Cara, Lee Curreri

Based on the acclaimed one-woman play Iphigenia in Splott, this Welsh-language film version moves the action to the North Wales town of Blaenau, a dreary place surrounded by grey slate tips, where Effi tries desperately to enjoy life on the dole through a haze of clubbing and alcohol. An encounter with a disabled soldier seems to promise her some hope, but things soon descend into chaos… But Effi fights back. Leisa Gwenllian gives a tour-de-force performance as Effi, and aided by Evans’s direction, she has you rooting for her character as fate and the elements conspire against her. An affecting and moving drama in the British social realist tradition.

Stars: Claire Foy, Richard E. Grant, Jack Farthing, Bel Powley

England, 1740. Lady Vane and Lord Ashwick will do anything to claw their way to the top of society - lie, scheme, blackmail, and butcher their way through polite company if they must. Claire Foy and Richard E. Grant star in this deliciously vicious period romp, where corsets are tight, morals are loose, and the body count keeps rising. Sharp-tongued, blood-splattered, and wickedly funny, Savage House skewers the brutal absurdity of class obsession with gleeful, unapologetic savagery.
