April 21, May 18: THE HOLDOVERS
2024 OSCAR winner Da’Vine Joy Randolph (Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role) with 2024 Golden Globe winner Paul Giamatti (Best Male actor) as a cranky history teacher at a prep school, forced to remain on campus over the holidays with a troubled student who has no place to go.
STUFF/ WAIKATO TIMES Graeme Tuckett 5/5 stars “Da’Vine Joy Randolph (The United States vs Billie Holiday) takes on the role of chef and confidant Mary, and burns the screen down in a couple of key scenes. The Holdovers is a marvel.”

From acclaimed director Alexander Payne, THE HOLDOVERS follows a bad tempered instructor (2024 Golden Globes winner) Paul Giamatti) at a prestigious American school who is forced to remain on campus during Christmas break to babysit the handful of students with nowhere to go. Eventually he forms an unlikely bond with one of them — a damaged, brainy troublemaker (newcomer Dominic Sessa) — and with the school’s head cook, who has just lost a son in Vietnam (2024 OSAC winner Da’Vine Joy Randolph).
DIRECTED BY Alexander Payne

May 19: ONE LOVE – BOB MARLEY
FIRST HE CHANGED MUSIC. THEN HE CHANGED THE WORLD.
Graeme Tuckett Waikato Times/ Stuff 4/5 Stars “A mostly very watchable and enjoyable ride. There’s a good handful of set-pieces here – the jam session that led to the writing of the title track of Exodus is a standout, a visit to a pub in London where The Clash are playing is another.”

ONE LIFE tells the inspiring true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton, whose unsung endeavours on the eve of World War II saved more than 600 children from their doom. Nicky considered himself a banker, not a humanitarian. Yet when he visited a recently annexed Prague in 1938 and saw the state of the fleeing Jewish refugees, he did what he believed was the right thing to do – the thing that anyone would do – and dedicated himself to the cause. War was approaching, and it was a race against time. How many children could he liberate before it ran out?
Fifty years later, it’s 1988 and Nicky is haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to help. And so it’s not until he’s surprised by the survivors on live television that he can accept that when facing devastating atrocities, saving even one life is a victory, and the British public learn the truth about the hero hidden in their midst.
