FILMS OUT THIS WEEK
Steven Spielberg is back on alien territory this week with Disclosure Day, while Peter Mullan plays a history enthusiast unsettled when a fantasy TV series comes to town in The Fall Of Sir Douglas Weatherford. Aristocrats engage in ruthless social climbing in Savage House, a teenage girl strives to become a jazz promoter in Köln 75, a struggling furniture-store owner enters the Backrooms, and a teenage boy makes a life-changing friendship in Enzo - we spoke with director Robin Campillo. Meanwhile, there are big screen rereleases for gutsy comedy Bridesmaids, Seventies porn industry fable Boogie Nights, gay erotic odyssey Pink Narcissus and feelgood romance Strictly Ballroom.
In addition to the above, we have a great selection of streaming suggestions in our Stay-at-Home Seven, and there's more to explore in our Eye for books column and podcast.
