The Secret in their eyes (Spanish with English Subtitles)
Committed federal prosecutor Benjamín Espósito investigates a 1974 rape and murder. The trio?s efforts are countered by a rival lawyer, one whose motives are revealed to mesh with the tragedies of Argentina's fascist past. Winner of the 2010 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.
THE GIRL WHO PLAYED WITH FIRE (Swedish, Italian, French with English subtitles)
The eagerly awaited second film adaptation from Stieg Larsson’s Millennium Trilogy sees hacker Lisbeth Salander in serious danger when she comes under suspicion for murder - can journalist Mikael Blomkvist clear her name as he investigates a sex trafficking ring?
THE ILLUSIONIST (L’ILLUSIONNISTE) (English, without subtitles, but mainly wordless)
Chomet’s follow-up to Belleville Rendezvous is a delightful, almost wordless animation, based on a previously unmade script by French film icon Jacques Tati. Magician Tatishcheff travels from his native France to the wilds of Scotland, where he and his feral rabbit befriend a young girl, Alice. As the gigs on the Scottish island dry up, Tatischeff travels to Edinburgh in search of employment, and Alice runs away to join him in the big city..
Mother (Korean with English Subtitles)
Slow-witted and with an unfortunate choice of friends, 27-year-old Do-jun is an easy stitch-up for the lazy cops when a young girl is murdered. His devoted mother meanwhile will stop at absolutely nothing to clear her son’s name. This bewitching mix of directorial elegance, black comedy and brilliantly twisty drama recalls the same director’s neo-classic Memories of Murder, and is another uniquely Korean delight.
Gainsbourg (French with English Subtitles)
An introspective glimpse into the world of French singer Serge Gainsbourg, from his tough childhood growing up in Nazi-occupied Paris to his death in 1991, via his troubled yet hugely successful time as a songwriter in the 1960s.
Heartbreaker (French with English Subtitles)
From its mischievous premise to its breezy execution, this is a brilliant romantic comedy that has plenty to appeal to both sexes. Heartbreaker is, hands down, one of the funniest and most consistently charming experiences you’re likely to have in the cinema this year.
[REC] 2 (Spanish with English subtitles). Cert 18
The sequel to the spine-chilling, critically acclaimed cult hit '[REC]', '[REC] 2' takes fear to a whole new level, on an adrenalin fuelled rollercoaster ride of sheer terror. Just 15 minutes have passed since the authorities lost contact with the people trapped inside a virus-stricken apartment block. Now a SWAT team must enter the building, equipped with video cameras, to monitor the situation. Nobody knows what has happened inside the building. But whatever evil awaits the SWAT team they must keep recording the unedited horror, at all costs. Subtitled trailer
I Am Love (French with English Subtitles)
Tilda Swinton stars in Luca Guadagnino's melodrama about a Milanese family. Operatic, Visconti-esque drama in which an ailing Milanese paterfamilias passes on the family business to his son and grandson, to the discomfort of his wife (played by Tilda Swinton), and their other two children.

Death Note (12a) Japan
Based on a popular manga about a notebook that allows idealistic law student Light (Tatsuya Fujiwara) to kill people simply by writing their names in its pages. Fiendishly unusual, it's an offbeat time-waster that genre fans will definitely want to make a note of. Trailer Review

From Ang Lee, the Academy Award winning director of "Brokeback Mountain" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," comes the critically acclaimed, sensuous, espionage thriller about conspiracy, passion and betrayal. Trailer Review
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (12a) France
The remarkable true story of Jean-Dominique Bauby (Mathieu Amalric), a successful and charismatic editor-in-chief of French Elle, who believes he is living his life to its absolute fullest when a sudden stroke leaves him in a life-altered state. ‘Nothing short of miraculous’ – Rolling Stone. ‘A masterpiece’ – New York Magazine. ‘A true cinematic experience’ - Empire Trailer
4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days (15)
Set in the final years of Communist rule in Romanian, this harrowing and gripping drama follows a young woman trying to help her friend obtain an abortion, an act that is both illegal and extremely dangerous. ‘A masterclass in tension... the performances are superb’ Time Out. ‘Provocative cinema that’s brilliantly made’ – Total Film. ‘Outstanding’ – Guardian Trailer
The Kite Runner (12a) (NOT subtitled throughout! Only about 90% subtitled)
