| THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD: British screen icon Richard Burton is in top form as the British spy sent into East Germany in the Cold War - supposedly to defect, but in fact to sow disinformation. As more plot turns appear, he questions how he's being used as a pawn in a bigger game. How will he react? The film - based on super spy-novelist John le Carre's early book - is deliberately shot in black and white to heighten the tension.
THE MORE YOU IGNORE ME: Our second film, a comedy-drama set in the 1980s, is also based on a critically-acclaimed book - by Jo Brand. A teenage girl struggles to relate to her loving mother's mental decline, and causes chaos when she comes up with a plan to reconnect with her. Set to the songs of The Smiths, the film provides a sometimes stark yet comical insight into life within this quirky household. Brand herself has a part as the local shop-keeper who ends up on the roof! | |
