The Grand Budapest Hotel The Grand Budapest Hotel recounts the adventures of Gustave H. a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars; and Zero Moustafa the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting; a raging battle for an enormous family fortune; a desperate chase on motorcycles trains sleds and skis; and the sweetest confection of a love affair — all against the backdrop of a suddenly and dramatically changing Continent. The Sessions Academy Award®... Winner Helen Hunt joins John Hawkes and William H. Macy in this triumphant true story about love sex desire... and making every breath count. Paralysed and confined to an iron lung since childhood poet-journalist Mark O’Brien (Hawkes) has overcome adversity time and time again. But now at age 38 he faces his toughest challenge yet: losing his virginity. With the help of a beautiful therapist (Hunt) a sympathetic priest (Macy) and his own unbridled sense of optimism and humour Mark embarks on an extraordinary personal journey to discover the wondrous pleasures that make life worth living. Hitchcock Oscar® Winners Anthony Hopkins and Helen Mirren are spellbinding in this provocative story about the making of one of cinema’s most iconic films. Plagued by both a reckless ego and nagging self-doubt Hollywood legend Alfred Hitchcock (Hopkins) becomes obsessed with a grisly murder story that the studios won’t back. Determined he risks his reputation his home and even the love of his wife Alma (Mirren) as he sets out to make the film. Ultimately Hitch wins Alma over and the two collaborate to create an enduring masterpiece – Psycho. Also starring Scarlett Johansson Toni Collette and Jessica Biel Hitchcock is “a knockout from start to finish” (Rex Reed The New York Observer). [show more]

Collection of films by directors Wes Anderson, Ben Lewin and Sacha Gervasi. 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' (2014) is a comedy set in 1920s Europe starring Ralph Fiennes as hotel concierge Gustave who, after a one night stand with Madame (Tilda Swinton), finds himself bequeathed a valuable painting when she passes away - much to the fury of her son Dmitri (Adrien Brody). With Dmitri intent on framing Gustave for his mother's murder, the concierge and his lobby boy Zero Moustafa (Tony Revolori) hatch a plan to hide the painting and evade the authorities. Will they succeed? The cast also includes Jeff Goldblum, Harvey Keitel, Jude Law, Bill Murray, Edward Norton and Tom Wilkinson. 'The Sessions' (2012) is a drama about the sexual awakening of a life-long polio sufferer. John Hawkes stars as Mark O'Brien, a writer in his late thirties who has spent most of his life lying horizontal in an iron lung since a debilitating childhood bout of polio left him paralysed. A poet and a romantic, Mark has lived a life devoid of sexual intimacy. When he is given the job of writing an article about the sex lives of the disabled, he arranges - with the support of his local priest, Father Brendan (William H. Macy) - to employ the services of sexual surrogate Cheryl (Helen Hunt). Their 'sessions' take Mark on an unexpected journey of discovery and self-awareness. 'Hitchcock' (2012) stars Anthony Hopkins as the legendary director in this biopic that chronicles the personal and professional relationship between Hitchcock and his wife Alma Reville (Helen Mirren) during the making of his 1960 classic 'Psycho'. It's 1959 and, increasingly worried about his relevance, Hitchcock decides a change of direction is what is needed. He settles on adapting Robert Bloch's true crime novel 'Psycho', despite the protestations of both Alma and Paramount President Barney Balaban (Richard Portnow). Having to mortgage their house to pay for the film, Alma's initial opposition soon gives way to support, as she dutifully throws herself fully behind the project. But as her husband begins to indulge himself in his trademark flights of fancy with a variety of blonde stars, Alma, whilst trying to keep the marriage on the rails, is determined that her own needs take centre stage.
