FILMS OUT THIS WEEK
A puppeteer's daughter falls foul of criminals this week in Tornado - see what director and star John Maclean and Tim Roth had to say about it. A mother leaving prison strives to retrieve her children in Lollipop, while a woman investigates her brother's death in a convent in Consecration - we spoke with star Jena Malone - and a brutal killing unbalances a troubled Welsh town in Protein - we interviewed director and star Tony Burke and Craig Russell. A shark-obsessed serial killer meets his match in Dangerous Animals - we spoke with director Sean Byrne - while there's another chance to meet a scary Clown In A Cornfield. The John Wick universe sees a Ballerina go looking for vengeance, and an unexpected encounter holds the promise of love in Falling Into Place - see what director Aylin Tezel told us about it. The story of student protests over the Gaza incursion is told in The Encampments, a showbiz legend is profiled in Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story, and there are big screen rerelease for Michael Haneke's tale of obsession The Piano Teacher and Kevin Smith's irreverent comedy Dogma.
In addition to this, we have a great selection of streaming suggestions in our Stay-at-Home Seven, and you can check out our semi-regular column, Eye For Books.
