Simon Miller / UK 2007 / 1h32m / Scottish Gaelic with English subtitles. Contains mild threat and bereavement theme. Cast: Aonghas Padruig Caimbeul, Padruig Moireasdan, Crisdean Domhnallach, Winnie Brook Young, Dolina Maclennan. The first Scottish Gaelic film to have mainstream distribution. Past and present collide for Angus when his grandfather – a towering but troublesome figure in his life – falls seriously ill. Travelling to Skye to say a final farewell – and with the legendary Inaccessible Pinnacle standing as a dramatic metaphor for the challenges ahead – Angus must untangle the old man’s stories to discover the truth about his own family history. Tickets £5 (£4), available online @ www.thebooth.co.uk or on the day at VisitScotland box office counter (tickets subject to availability). Doors open half an hour before screening.

Ridley Scott / USA 2007 / 2h37m. Contains strong violence and hard drug use. Cast: Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Josh Brolin, Lymari Nadal. In what is perhaps the most audacious smuggling operation in history, 70s drugs kingpin Frank Lucas used the coffins of ill-fated US soldiers to shift heroin from war-torn Vietnam to the States. Denzel Washington is the visionary, real-life American Gangster in director Ridley Scott’s sharply riveting crime saga, with Russell Crowe also on excellent form playing the ramshackle but scrupulously honest detective on Lucas’ case. Tickets £5 (£4).

Sean Penn / USA 2007 / 2h28m / 35mm. Contains strong language. Cast: Emile Hirsch, Marcia Gay Harden, William Hurt, Jena Malone, Catherine Keener. Sean Penn’s unsettling film tells the true story of Christopher McCandless. The script, which Penn also wrote, picks up its hero’s story two years after he has left his family, changed his name, given away his money, hitchhiked around the country and, unprepared, is about to enter the Alaskan wilderness. The film is a celebration of the survivalist instinct and, at the same time, a warning of the dangers of idealising nature. Tickets £5 (£4).

Frank Nissen / USA 2005 / 1h8m. Contains no sex, violence or bad language. With the voices of Jim Cummings, John Fiedler, Nikita Hopkins, Brenda Blethyn. Beware the marauding heffalump! Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet and Rabbit must capture the heffalump before it invades Hundred Acre Wood. An amusing, beautifully drawn film centred on the budding friendship between Roo, son of Kanga, and Lumpy, a baby heffalump. Tickets £5 (£4).

Sarah Gavron / UK 2007 / 1h42m. Contains strong language. Cast: Tannishtha Chatterjee, Satish Kaushik, Christopher Simpson. In a remote village in Bangladesh, Nazneen is a happy teenage girl devoted to her family and community. When tragedy strikes, she is sent to London for an arranged marriage. Fast forward several years as Nazneen walks back along Brick Lane to the flat that has become the centre of her existence. A sensitive and beautifully acted tale of a young girl transported into a totally alien world.

Wes Anderson / USA 2007 / 1h44m. Contains strong language and moderate sex. Cast: Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman, Amara Karan, Wallace Wolodarsky, Bill Murray. Three brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other. Their ‘spiritual quest’, however, veers rapidly offcourse, and they find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert. Tickets £5 (£4).

Robert Zemeckis / USA 2007 / 1h54m. Contains moderate bloody violence and sex references. Cast: Ray Winstone, Angelina Jolie, Anthony Hopkins, Crispin Glover, John Malkovich. The ancient English poem is brought to life in this bold, computergenerated fantasy from director Robert Zemeckis, telling the heroic story of Beowulf as he goes from hero to zero and back again, slaying monsters but becoming something of a monster himself. Tickets £5 (£4).

He escapes only to discover the harsh realities of an unforgiving jungle beyond the camp’s walls. Tickets £5 (£4).

But the greatest threat to his life may ultimately come from those he trusts the most. Tickets £5 (£4).

Steve Hickner & Simon J Smith / USA 2007 / 1h30m. Contains no material likely to offend or harm. With the voices of Jerry Seinfeld, Renée Zellweger, Matthew Broderick, Patrick Warburton, John Goodman, Chris Rock. Newly-graduated bee, Barry B Benson, ventures outside the hive for the first time and breaks one of the cardinal rules of the bee world. He talks to a human, a florist named Vanessa. He is shocked to discover that the humans have been eating honey for centuries, and realises that his true calling is to sue the human race for stealing the bees’ precious honey. Tickets £5 (£4).

Kenneth Branagh / UK/France 2006 / 2h15m. Contains visual reference to suicide by hanging. Cast: Joseph Kaiser, Amy Carson, René Pape, Lyubov Petrova, Benjamin Jay Davis. One of Mozart’s most famous operas, reconceived for the screen by Kenneth Branagh, with a libretto in English adapted by Stephen Fry. Branagh is no stranger to bringing fresh perspectives to bear on great classics. From the timeless, fairytale world of most productions, he moves the action and familiar characters to the trenches of the First World War, amidst the horror and mud of the Western Front, Tickets £5 (£4).
