Happy Go Lucky
When the weatherman says it’s raining, you’ll never catch Poppy complaining – it would take a lot more than a few rain drops to dampen the spirits of Mike Leigh’s permanently upbeat primary school teacher. Played by Sally Hawkins, Poppy is a cool 30-something Londoner who loves her job, loves her friends and loves her freedom. Her refreshing upbeat attitude to life is infectious and the hilarious scrapes she manages to get herself into make this the ultimate feel-good flick!

Persopolis
Comedy and tragedy collide in Persopolis; the beautifully observed story of Marjane, a young girl growing up during the Iranian revolution who learns to triumph over adversity. Told in striking black and white animation, this film will leave a lasting impression long after the credits roll and is definitely one for your arty mates.

Leatherheads
Fancy a night in with George Clooney? Well who doesn’t? Written, directed and produced by the star himself, this classic screwball comedy brings our favourite screen heartthrob together with a sultry Renee Zellweger in a roaring 20’s tale of American Football and the ultimate newspaper expose. It simply exudes style and glamour!
