Comedy Son of Rambow (12A) is being screened at the Reel Cinema for a week from today.
In 1980's Britain, young Will Proudfoot (Bill Milner) is raised in isolation among The Brethren, a puritanical religious sect in which music and TV are strictly forbidden.
When Will encounters his first movie, a pirated copy of "Rambo: First Blood", his imagination is blown wide open.
Now, Will sets out to join forces with the seemingly diabolical school bully, Lee Carter (Will Poulter), to make their own action epic, devising wildly creative, on-the-fly stunts, not to mention equally elaborate schemes for creating a movie of total commitment and non-stop thrills while hiding out from The Brethren.
When school popularity finally descends on Will and Lee in the form of, oui, the super-cool French exchange student, Didier Revol (Jules Sitruk), their remarkable new friendship and precious film are pushed, quite literally, to the breaking point.
10,000 BC (12A) is also showing at the Reel for a week.
