FILMS OUT THIS WEEK
A new wife's frustration leads to strange urges this week in Sister Midnight - see our interview with director Karan Kandhari - while a pivotal moment in history is explored in Dawn Of Impressionism: Paris 1874. An intelligence agent is torn between wife and country in Black Bag, an economics professor makes a dodgy property deal in American Dreamer, and a former judge encounters tyranny in a nursing home in The Rule Of Jenny Pen. A Portuguese warehouse worker in Scotland struggles with isolation in On Falling - we spoke with director Laura Carreira - while a man must decide how to face up to the Nazis in Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin. A clone finds himself in trouble in Mickey 17, and there are big screen rereleases for Prince spectacular Purple Rain and Coen brothers classic O Brother, Where Art Thou?.
In addition to this, we have a great selection of streaming suggestions in our Stay-at-Home Seven.
