Official Secrets (2019)

By Chris Kriofske
Rating: 3 cats
Director: Gavin Hood
Starring: Jeremy Northam | Katherine Kelly | Keira Knightley | Matt Smith | Matthew Goode | Ralph Fiennes

Official Secrets

Chris says: “A fascinating story (based on actual events) told adequately; it wants to be ALL THE PRESIDENT’S MEN, but Keira Knightley lacks the presence of a Hoffman and the ease of a Redford. It’s even more noticeable in her

Rating: 3.5 cats
Director: James Kent

By Chlotrudis Independent Film Society
Rating: 3 cats
Director: Wash Westmoreland
Starring: Arabella Weir | Dominic West | Fiona Shaw | Keira Knightley | Máté Haumann | Robert Pugh | Sloan Thompson

Colette

Rating: 5 cats
Director: John Carney
Starring: Adam Levine | Catherine Keener | Hailee Steinfeld | Keira Knightley | Mark Ruffalo | Yasiin ‘Mos Def’ Bey

Begin Again

Jason says: “I wonder if there’s something about making a movie about popular music that puts filmmakers into a zone where they don’t need to work in quite so straight a line – they’re already thinking in terms of coming

Last Night (2011)

By Chlotrudis Independent Film Society
Rating: 3 cats
Director: Massy Tadjedin
Starring: Anson Mount | Eva Mendes | Griffin Dunne | Guillaume Canet | Keira Knightley | Sam Worthington

Last Night

Chris says: “This is a first feature for director Tadjedin and it’s an assured debut although there’s not that much to it. The relationship drama centers on striking Joanna Reed (Knightley), a writer working on her 2nd novel, and her

Rating: 5 cats
Director: Mark Romanek
Starring: Andrew Garfield | Carey Mulligan | Charlie Rowe | Ella Purnell | Isobel Meikle-Small | Keira Knightley

Never Let Me Go

Jason says: “NEVER LET ME GO is the sort of science fiction that tends to hide its genre or go by another name – ‘speculative fiction’ or ‘slipstream’ – because it wants to associate itself with a different audience.  Science
