Bristol’s week in film: November 22-28 2019

Disney sequel Frozen II is this week’s big new release (in 2D and 3D), while action enthusiasts get 21 Bridges and arthouse audiences can enjoy Judy & Punch and/or the latest lauded Netflix flick Marriage Story.

From Wednesday, many cinemas have previews of Rian Johnson’s much-acclaimed Agatha Christie-style murder mystery, Knives Out.

And we’ve got just the one film festival this week: the UK Jewish Film Festival on Tour, which arrives at the Watershed with two screenings.
