All About Eve (PG) (Joseph L Mankiewicz, US, 1950) Bette Davis, Anne Baxter, George Sanders, Marilyn Monroe. 138min. Davis and Baxter are on top form in this tale of backstage back-biting and conniving, and a young Monroe makes a big entrance in a small part. A witty and intelligent film. Now re-released in digital. Part of the Our Week With Marilyn season. Filmhouse, Edinburgh. The Amazing Spider-Man (12A) (Marc Webb, US, 2012) Andrew

Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans. 136min.

Late Night Cult Classic: Total Recall

A chance to watch the original film ahead of the release of the remake. Directed by Paul Verhoeven (Robocop, Basic Instinct) and loosely based on a Philip K Dick story, the futuristic story of a construction worker plagued by a recurring dream who discovers he has a second life stars Arnold Schwarzenegger (at the peak of his success), Sharon Stone and Rachel Ticotin. GFT, Glasgow, Fri 10 Aug.

of-the nation urban grit Loach is straining so hard to be accessible and populist here that the whole experience feels forced and condescending. General release. Annie Hall (15) (Woody Allen, US, 1977) Woody Allen, Diane Keaton, Tony Roberts. 93min. Two decades before Sex And The City had its first orgasm, Annie Hall was laying bare the mores of modern, urban romance to devastating effect while also zoning in on the specific psyche of Allen Konigsberg: anti-Semitic paranoia, metaphysical angst, the search for true love. They really don’t make ’em like Annie Hall anymore. Part of the Summer of Love season. Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow. Art of Freedom (tbc) (Marek Klosowicz, Poland, 2011) 71min. Documentary telling the story of Poland’s trailblazing Himalayan mountaineers

during the Communist era. Part of a trilogy commissioned by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute entitled Guide to the Poles, exploring how Polish people found ways to express creativity and freedom during the Communist era. Summerhall, Edinburgh. The Asphalt Jungle (PG) (John Huston, US, 1950) Sterling Hayden, Louis Calhern, Jean Hagen, Sam Jaffe, Marilyn Monroe. 112min. Huston’s freshly cleaned up 1950 film noir/heist classic feels as fresh today as it must have been then. Based on WR Burnett’s pulp novel and with a blindingly starry cast, the story of a botched diamond heist that brings down characters from every rung of society was immeasurably influential. Part of the Our Week With Marilyn season. Filmhouse, Edinburgh. Barbie: The Princess and the Popstar (U) (Zeke Norton, US, 2012) Voices of Kelly Sheridan, Tiffany Giardina, Jennifer Waris. 75min.

Part of the Guide to the Poles trilogy (see Art of Freedom, above). Summerhall, Edinburgh. Before Sunrise (15) (Richard Linklater, US, 1995) Julie Delpy, Ethan Hawke, Andrea Eckert. 101min. American Inter- Railer Hawke and French student Delpy are the strangers on a train who strike up a chance conversation and spend a night wandering around Vienna. The actors give career best performances while director Linklater veers into Eric Rohmer territory with a funny, sweet and fundamentally wise movie. Part of the Summer of Love season. Glasgow Film Theatre, Glasgow. Boro in the Box & Borowczyk’s Short Animations (tbc) (Various, Various). A night dedicated to Polish filmmaker Walerian Borowczyk, including a screening of biopic Boro in the Box by Bertrand Mandico, and some of the director’s own early animated shorts.
