Monday Cinema: Greenberg (15)
Noah Baumbach 2010 107 mins
7.30 p.m. £5/£4
Directed by Noah Baumbach (The Squid and The Whale) and written by Baumbach and Jennifer Jason Leigh, Greenberg stars Ben Stiller as the eponymous protagonist, a 40-something getting over a nervous breakdown. Moving to L.A. to housesit for his brother, he meets Florence (Greta Gerwig) and an unlikely relationship develops. “A spiky ball of New York neuroses, Roger is Woody Allen by way of Saul Bellow’s Herzog, a 40 year-old man trapped in adolescent self-obsession. Like The Graduate, or the second half of Annie Hall, this is an East Coast comedy about West Coast society, but one that’s harder on the New Yorker’s solipsism than the sun-weathered optimism of L.A.” (Empire)

§Monday 13th December • Cinema
Monday Cinema: Letter From an Unknown Woman (U)
Max Ophuls 1948 87 mins
7.30 p.m. £5/£4
“Joan Fontaine is Lisa, the beautiful young innocent who falls passionately in love with Stefan (Louis Jourdan). Are his feelings for her as deep and permanent as hers for him? Fate, with terrible ironies and duplications, takes its course: this gripping and tragic story spans a decade in which Stefan and Lisa leave their youth and their illusions behind them. The action of the film, on the cusp of melodrama, is fashioned to perfection.” (The Guardian). Set in turn-of-the-century Vienna, Max Ophuls’ lush romance has entranced audiences for decades.
