The Notebook (2004)

Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams star in this beloved romantic drama based on Nicholas Sparks’ bestselling novel. It’s a journey through time revealing unwavering affection, as words from a faded notebook transport us into Allie and Noah's world—a world of youthful passion, societal barriers, and life-altering decisions.

Playtime (1967)

Playtime (1967)

Jacques Tati's Playtime is a wordless wonder of cinema. Tati writes, directs, and stars in this near-silent French comedy, a visual spectacle and social satire that critiques modern life. As Monsieur Hulot wanders a hyper-modern, mechanised Paris of glass and steel, he becomes entangled in hilarious absurdities. Sublime in its design and meticulous in its humour, this cult favorite is a must-see.


Ronin (1998)

Sunday 4th May at 9pm on ITV4

Ronin (1998)

Robert De Niro plays a freelance former US intelligence agent, who gets drawn into a murky mission to retrieve a heavily-guarded briefcase. With breathtaking car chases and explosive results, it’s a must-see for both espionage enthusiasts and action purists.

Gritty thriller also Jean Reno, Natascha McElhone, Sean Bean, Stellan Skarsgard and Jonathan Pryce.
