Join us for the opening night of this year's French Film Festival with a sneak preview of Jodie Foster's latest film.
Rebecca Zlotowski’s anticipated follow-up to Other People’s Children stars Jodie Foster in a French-language role as Lilian Steiner, a renowned psychiatrist investigating the death of one of her patients. She becomes deeply troubled and is convinced that it was murder. She decides to investigate... Foster is joined by an A-list cast including Daniel Auteuil, Mathieu Amalric and Virginie Efira. The director plays with the duality of tones: between deliberate comedy and deep dives into a personality full of gray areas. In French and English with English subtitles.
"A new landmark in Foster’s career which just continues to dazzle." - Deadline
Screening as part of French Film Festival 2025.
One of director Douglas Sirk's best and most successful romantic melodramas of the 1950s, "All That Heaven Allows" movingly portrays a May-December romance between Cary Scott (Jane Wyman), an attractive widow, and handsome gardener-landscaper Ron Kirby (Rock Hudson). Exceedingly lonely since her husband's death, Cary throws conventional behavior to the winds and facing social ostracism by pursuing her romance with Ron, who is unjustly perceived as a fortune-hunter by Cary's friends and family--especially her priggish son Ned (William Reynolds). Don’t forget your tissues.
All That Heaven Allows is screening as part of the BFI's Too Much: Melodrama on Film season. You can another film in the season -- Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard -- on Sunday 14 December. Image Credit: Park Circus.
Funding for the film screening was made possible thanks to Film Hub Scotland.

📖📚🎞Book Week Scotland returns to the Robert Burns Centre in November with local author Karl Drinkwater 🎞📚📖
Karl is an author of a sci-fi series and at the core of the whole series is the friendship between two women (often just talking to each other over a distance). Karl also did a creative writing session on the topic of friendship in March 2023. This evening's event will relate to Karl’s writing on friendship as this is covered in many of his stories, not just the sci-fi ones. Karl: "the best romances are ones where the leads are also obviously great friends, in turn with each other, challenging each other, pushing each other."
Karl chose 'Before Sunrise' for screening alongside his talk the first film in Richard Linklater’s Before Trilogy. In Before Sunrise Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Céline (Julie Delpy) meet on a Euro rail train and disembark in Vienna to spend the night together.
Tickets for the event are free with funding provided by Book Week Scotland.
