Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, James Mason

Director: Alfred Hitchcock

Middle-aged New York advertising executive Roger Thornhill (Grant) is pursued by group of foreign spies led by the ruthless Phillip Vandamm (Mason) after Thornhill is mistaken for a government agent.  Thornhill is framed for murder but manages to escape the police by boarding a train bound for Chicago.  On the train he meets the beautiful, mysterious blonde Eve Kendall (Saint) who hides him from the police and becomes his romantic ally.

Thornhill and Kendall are pursued across the States by both the spies and the government.  Vandamm’s men lure Thornhill to an isolated rural stretch in Indiana, leading to the iconic, suspenseful crop-duster airplane attack.  The film culminates in a dramatic rescue and escape at the top of Mount Rushmore.

This standard bearer from the Warner Bros. deep catalogue is now available in 4K Ultra High Definition with a brilliant HDR10 transfer and an impressive new Atmos audio mix.

★★★★★ “Hitchcock’s funniest, most ambitious film. You can’t look away” The Guardian
★★★★★ “Certifiable classic territory, Hitchcock's glossiest entertainment is the closest the trickster ever came to an action movie. A justifiable masterpiece” Empire
★★★★★ “Alfred Hitchcock’s North by Northwest is a magnificent thriller, but it's also very funny” The Telegraph
★★★★★ “Hitch delivers emotional highs and lows with perfect timing, allowing moments of relief to break out before mounting another crescendo of excitement” BBC Film

Glenn Close, Anders Danielsen Lie, Emily Matthews

Director: Charlie McDowell

Based on the classic 1972 novel by Tove Jansson, The Summer Book is a moving drama film about an eight-year-old girl named Sophia, her grieving father and her wise but cantankerous grandmother.

Following the recent death of Sophia’s mother, the family spend a transformative summer together on a remote, unspoiled island in the Gulf of Finland.  While the father remains numb from the loss, Sophia (Matthews) and her grandmother (Close) explore rocky shores, share honest truths, and navigate the delicate transition of growing up while the grandmother confronts her own mortality.

★★★★ “A bracingly unsentimental drama ... Glenn Close is a wonderfully cranky Grandma” The Times

★★★ “Glenn Close brings her totemic presence to this gentle movie ... affecting and distinctive” The Guardian

Andrew Scott, Brendan Fraser, Kerry Condon

Director: Anthony Maras

In the tense 72 hours leading up to D-Day in June 1944, the fate of Operation Overlord – the Allied invasion of Europe – hangs in the balance.

RAF Group Captain James Stagg (Scott), a studious and stubborn Scottish meteorologist, analyses live atmospheric data and predicts two severe low-pressure storms heading straight for the English Channel.  He advises that launching Operation Overlord on the planned date of 5th June would be a catastrophic disaster.  However, Col. Irving P. Krick (Chris Messina), a U.S. meteorologist relying on analogue forecasting and historical patterns, fiercely disputes Stagg’s grim assessment and insists that the weather will remain clear.

Supreme Allied Commander General Dwight D. Eisenhower (Fraser) faces an agonising dilemma: launch the largest seaborne invasion in history into a violent storm, or delay the operation and risk losing the element of surprise to German intelligence.

★★★★ “Andrew Scott is breathtaking as the weatherman who saved D-Day from disaster” The Telegraph
★★★★ “Led by a stellar Andrew Scott, Pressure is a conventional but compelling look at a little-known vignette from the theatre of World War II” Empire
★★★★ “Andrew Scott brings remarkable nuance and depth to this tense WW2 drama ... a beautifully balanced portrayal” Radio Times
★★★★ “Andrew Scott sticks a black cloud on the Allies’ D-Day plans in this terrifically tense World War II thriller” Time Out

Emmy and Tony winner Christine Baranski makes her West End debut alongside Academy Award-nominated stage and screen legend Richard E. Grant in Noël Coward’s irresistible comedy.

Judith Bliss retired from her life-on-stage and she misses the applause.  Idling away at their country home, the rest of the family are too self-involved to be a good audience.  So, Judith invites a young fan as her guest for the weekend.  But unbeknownst to her, each of the Blisses has a guest of their own arriving at the very same time...

Captured live at Wyndham’s Theatre in the West End, Emily Burns directs this stinging new production.

Four years have passed since the events of No Way Home, and Peter is now an adult living entirely alone, having voluntarily erased himself from the lives and memories of those he loves.  Crime-fighting in a New York that no longer knows his name, he’s devoted himself entirely to protecting his city – a full-time Spider-Man – but as the demands on him intensify, the pressure sparks a surprising physical evolution that threatens his existence, even as a strange new pattern of crimes gives rise to one of the most powerful threats he has ever faced...
