The Color Purple – 26th February

Poor Things – 27th February
From filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos and producer Emma Stone comes the incredible tale and fantastical evolution of Bella Baxter (Stone), a young woman brought back to life by the brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe). Under Baxter’s protection, Bella is eager to learn. Hungry for the worldliness she is lacking, Bella runs off with Duncan Wedderburn (Mark Ruffalo), a slick and debauched lawyer, on a whirlwind adventure across the continents. Free from the prejudices of her times, Bella grows steadfast in her purpose to stand for equality and liberation.
Priscilla – 1st March
From a German army base to his dream-world estate at Graceland: through Priscilla Presley’s eyes, Sofia Coppola tells the unseen side of a great American myth in Elvis and Priscilla’s long courtship and turbulent marriage. The movie will be available to buy and also stream on MUBI UK from 1st March.

Next Goal Wins – 4th March
Taika Waititi directs this heartfelt, underdog comedy based on a true story, which follows the American Samoa soccer team, infamous for their brutal 31-0 FIFA loss in 2001.
