Another week, another superhero movie swallowing up multiple multiplex screens. This time it’s X-Men: Dark Phoenix – in 2D and 3D, as usual.
Bristol Film Festival’s boozy screening series in Averys’ wine cellar continues with Roman Holiday and – inevitably – Sideways.
There are three director Q&As this week, accompanying Eating Animals and Our Most Brilliant Friends at the Orpheus and a preview of refugee drama A Season in France at the Watershed. Also at the Watershed, the second annual Doc’n Roll festival kicks off on Wednesday. If you like your ballet al fresco, head down to Millennium Square on Tuesday for the free live broadcast of Kenneth MacMillan’s Romeo and Juliet.
