DMovies - weekly newsletter

Sunset Screening Sessions presents The Story of Cymande, and Withnail and I + Smoking Causes Coughing + Sick of Myself + Master Gardener + much more

This week's newsletter contains the latest films in cinemas, and also the latest releases on various VoD platforms, including Netflix and Mubi.

Plus, catch two more films from the third edition of Sunset Screening Sessions this weekend, as the UK's most beautiful open-air cinema returns with another selection of 10 British films that shine.

On the spotlight:

Sunset Screening Sessions, Doc'n Roll Film Festival and Young Lewisham Project present a dirty gem of a rockumentary. Cymande are the first British band to play at Harlem’s legendary Apollo. Their message of peace, love and funk sailed far beyond Britain’s shores and helped shape music for five decades.

Loosely based on the director’s life in London in 1960, this black comedy classic is the perfect Friday night boozy entertainment. Two unemployed actors live in a squalid Camden flat. One day, they embark on a holiday to the countryside "by mistake".

Latest releases:

SMOKING CAUSES COUGHING

In this anthology, Quentin Dupieux looks at the dangers of smoking, heavy machinery and human folly through a series of scintillating stories!

MASTER GARDENER

A gardener with a murky past is offered a second chance in life when he agrees to mentor a distant relative of his boss, in Paul Schrader's new film.

SICK OF MYSELF

From the producers of The Worst Person in the World comes a superior Oslo-set tale, pushing narcissism to its very limits.

Releases from the past few weeks:

INDIANA JONES AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY

The fifth and final instalment of the Indiana Jones franchise is a hearty feast of historical absurdities, cliches and self-references; it is easily digestible and enjoyable.

LA SYNDICALISTE

A magnificent Isabelle Huppert stars as the head union chief of a French multinational nuclear powerhouse, in this real-life thriller.

TO NOWHERE

In this frank but fair account about queer love and teenage rebellion, director Sian Astor-Lewis offers a strangely piercing fable about alcoholism in London.

ASTEROID CITY

Children and parents get together for a stargazing convention in the middle of the American desert, in Wes Anderson's banally idiosyncratic new movie.
