Winner of the TIFF 2021 Audience Award (a consistent bellwether for the Best Picture Oscar). Opens Nov 12 at the Twin.

Written and directed by Kenneth Branagh, BELFAST is a poignant story of love, laughter and loss in one boy's childhood, amid the music and social tumult of the late 1960s.

"Written, performed, and captured with measured grace, Belfast packs an emotional punch so subtle and slow-burning that you might not recognize its power until it's already gutted you." - The Spool

Kenneth Branagh's funny, touching and vital look at his own coming of age in turbulent Northern Ireland cuts a clear, true path of the heart. It's his personal best!

Rave reviews are coming in from critics around the world... Belfast is a must-see, feel-good film.

"Belfast is a delight that knocks down whatever emotional walls have been built up inside, making what must've been very personal to the director almost as personal to the viewer. It's great, and an instant favorite film of the year." - ABC

The French Dispatch continues at the Twin! An absolute MUST-SEE, this is Wes Anderson at his best. A truly entertaining, fun, delightful film. There is so much happening in every frame, you really need to see it on the big screen!

"The cinematic world of Wes Anderson remains fascinating, abundant in detail and eccentrically rich." - Always Good Movies
