August's releases include:
Marriage Story (2019) - Nominated for 6 Academy Awards, and an audience favourite from LIFF 2019's Official Selection, Marriage Story is a hilarious and harrowing, sharply observed, and deeply compassionate film from the acclaimed writer-director Noah Baumbach, featuring tour-de-force performances from Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver.
The Lady Eve (1941) - Barbara Stanwyck sizzles, Henry Fonda bumbles and Preston Sturges runs riot in one of the all-time great screwballs, a pitch-perfect blend of comic zing and swoon-worthy romance.
Taste of Cherry (1997) - The first Iranian film to win the Palme d’Or, this austere, emotionally complex drama by the great Abbas Kiarostami follows the middle-aged Mr. Badii (Homayoun Ershadi) as he drives around the hilly outskirts of Tehran looking for someone who will agree to dispose of his body after he commits suicide, a taboo under Islam.
Competition open to UK residents only.
