FILMS OUT THIS WEEK
Infection strikes a biotech conference this week in Colony, while a conductor meets the brother he didn't know he had in The Marching Band - we spoke with star Pierre Lottin. An ageing writer tries to reconnect with his offspring in & Sons, while a film director has an unexpected experience with a star in Teenage Sex And Death At Camp Miasma. Jason Statham plays a bodyguard framed for murder in Mutiny and stewardesses try to stave off disaster in Drag Race spin-off Stop! That! Train! Plus there are big screen re-releases for Danny Boyle classic Trainspotting, musical romance La La Land and claymation adventures Early Man and Shaun The Sheep Movie.
In addition to the above, we have a great selection of streaming suggestions in our Stay-at-Home Seven, and there's more to explore in our Eye for books column and podcast.
