Still the Water Futatsume no madoFriday 3 – Thursday 9 July

Naomi Kawase is a master of serene, spiritual dramas in which earthly troubles are contrasted with the healing powers of the natural world. Still the Water is set on the tropical Japanese island of Amami where 16-year-old Kyôko (Jun Yoshinaga) is falling in love with the boy next door, Kaito (Nijirô Murakami). However, when a body is washed up on shore, a link with the dead man forces Kaito to re-examine his relationship with his parents; a move which creates an emotional impasse between himself and Kyôko.

IESBest of EnemiesTuesday 28 – Thursday 30 July

When ABC found themselves lagging behind in ratings, they asked conservative commentator William F Buckley Jr and liberal writer Gore Vidal to take part in a series of debates around the Republican and Democratic Conventions of 1968. Whilst Buckley saw Vidal as a moral degenerate, Vidal saw Buckley’s conservative views as dangerous to democracy, and from the moment the two met onscreen the nation became transfixed by their barbed wordplay. From the director of the Oscar-winning 20 Feet from Stardom, this is a captivating look at a pivotal time in American history, seen through the clashing of two perfectly opposed thinkers.

The Mist Friday 17 July (23.00)

The modern master of Stephen King adaptations, Frank Darabont, delivered his third King movie after The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile with this hugely effective creature feature. As a disparate group take shelter inside a supermarket when an unearthly mist rolls in, the fear and paranoia growing inside the store is nothing compared to what might be lurking in the mist’s impenetrable depths. Darabont gives us characters to care deeply about and encounters to chill our blood, frequently bettering King’s novella and building the tension expertly all the way to an unforgettable climax.

Die Hard with a VengeanceTuesday 4 August (20.00)

The second film in the Die Hard franchise tried to recapture the claustrophobic magic of the original, but this third film twists the premise on its head. A mysterious new terrorist emerges during a sweltering summer heatwave to force NYPD officer Lt. John McClane into a life-threatening, citywide game of Simon Says. Original Die Hard director John McTiernan returned to the franchise (with a vengeance) to offer arguably the last great outing for Bruce Willis as McClane. Screening on 35mm.

Director John McTiernan Cast, Bruce Willis, Samuel L Jackson, Jeremy Irons, USA 1995, 2h9m, 15

Do the Right ThingTuesday 18 August (20.15)

On the hottest day of the summer in the Bedford-Stuyvesant district of Brooklyn, Italian-American Sal Fragione opens his pizza parlour in the same way he has for the past 25 years. However, on this day, the simmering racial tensions between Sal’s Italian-American family and the predominately African-American neighbourhood come to the fore as thinly veiled hatred and bigotry explodes into violence. One of Spike Lee’s earliest feature films, Do the Right Thing overflows with creative energy, political relevance and righteous anger. It is recognised not only as one of Lee’s best works, but also as one of the greatest films ever made. Screening on 35mm.

Director Spike Lee Cast Danny Aiello, Spike Lee, John Turturro, USA 1989, 1h55m, 18

JawsTuesday 11 August (20.00)

What would a summer movie season be without an outing for the original summer blockbuster? Steven Spielberg’s 1975 shark saga transformed his career and set the standard for Hollywood, while frightening moviegoers out of the water for years. When pieces of human flesh wash up on the shore of a popular tourist resort, Police Chief Brody suspects the worst. But local officials, mindful of the lucrative tourist trade, refuse to put the island on a business-killing shark alert. After more deadly attacks, Brody recruits marine biologist Hooper and veteran fisherman Quint to hunt down the legendary beast, only to realise it is the shark that is hunting them.

Director Steven Spielberg Cast Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, Robert Shaw, USA 1975, 1h59m, 12A contains moderate threat and occasional gory moments


The Virgin SuicidesTuesday 25 August (20.30)

Before the summer of ‘99, Sofia Coppola was known only for being the daughter of Francis Ford Coppola. However, upon the release of The Virgin Suicides she quickly became one of America’s most interesting filmmakers, delicately exploring themes of identity, angst and awkwardness in young women with melancholy and balanced humour. One dreamy ‘70s summer, 13-year-old Cecilia commits suicide, and her four older sisters are placed in isolation by their parents, quarantined from social interaction – particularly from the opposite sex. A curious and compelling story that is brought to life by the actors’ genuine emotions and a fantastic soundtrack by French duo Air.

Director Sofia Coppola Cast Kirsten Dunst, Josh Hartnett, James Woods, USA 1999, 1h33m, 15
