Josh O’Connor (The Crown; Challengers) leads the cast in this searing revival of Clifford Odets’ knockout American classic.

1930s New York, at the height of the Depression. Joe Bonaparte is a gifted young violinist with a future in music, until a chance at fame and fortune lures him into the brutal world of professional boxing. He must confront what he’s willing to sacrifice, who he’s willing to become and how to find his place in a world that demands he choose a side.

Brought to life with a live string quartet and filmed live from the Almeida Theatre, Olivier Award-winner Sam Yates (Vanya) directs this propulsive drama exploring ambition, identity, and the high price of success.

The Fire in Our Hearts plays at Star Cinema the week of Oct 30 - Nov 5.

When wildfire threatens a remote region of northern British Columbia, the Cheslatta Carrier Nation and residents of the Southside are forced to confront an impossible choice: evacuate, or remain to protect the land that defines them. Cut off by distance and limited access, the community responds collectively, drawing on Indigenous leadership, cooperation, and generations of lived knowledge to face the fire in near isolation.

​The Fire In Our Hearts is a portrait of resilience, exploring how community-led action and responsibility shape survival in a world increasingly defined by fire.

Wicker opens this Friday, Oct 23 at Star Cinema!

"Brought to life by astounding performances from Olivia Colman and Alexander Skarsgård, Wicker is a wickedly funny, surprisingly tender exploration of loneliness, envy, societal expectations. Enjoyable from start to finish; Wicker is a Sundance gem worth seeking out."

A Talent for Murder opens on Friday, Oct 23rd at Star Cinema!

"This smoldering chamber thriller imagines a confrontation between a literary agent and legendary author Patricia Highsmith, whose acclaimed crime novels include Strangers on a Train and The Talented Mr. Ripley. A Talent For Murder is a thrilling and excellently told story that keeps viewers guessing as we witness this brilliant battle of wits. Helen Mirren and Alden Ehrenreich are terrific."
