Lee

Available from Friday 1 November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15

Oscar winner and national treasure Kate Winslet stars in this biopic of Lee Miller, the model turned photojournalist who documented the conflicts of the Second World War on the ground and in defiance of the authorities who thought the battlefield was no place for a woman. As well as a gripping, eye-opening glimpse into the conflicts – both armed and social – of the time, it’s a labour of love for Winslet, who produced the movie and even paid the crew’s wages during a delay. Andy Samberg (Palm Springs) and Marion Cotillard (La Vie En Rose) co-star.

Ordinary Angels

Available from Saturday 2 November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 12

Reacher’s Alan Ritchson is Ed, a widower struggling to make ends meet for his two daughters – a situation exacerbated by punitively expensive medical treatment. When small-town hairdresser Sharon (Hilary Swank, Million Dollar Baby) hears of his plight, she puts her own hardships aside and dedicates herself to helping this family of strangers. Based on a true story, this will inspire you to believe in the potential of humanity.

Sasquatch Sunset

Available from Sunday 3 November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15

If you go down to the woods today, you’re sure of a big surprise. Film-makers David and Nathan Zellner follow up their bizarre thriller Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter and bizarre black comedy western Damsel with this predictably bizarre pseudo-documentary, following a family of Sasquatches over the course a year as they deal with everyday challenges and long-term environmental change. Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network) and Riley Keough (Daisy Jones & The Six) are in the Sasquatch suits for a film that, like Sasquatches themselves, has to be seen to be believed.

The Holdovers

Available from Friday 8 November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15

Paul Hunham (Paul Giamatti, Billions), a curmudgeonly teacher at a New England boarding school, is given the unwanted job of staying over Christmas to supervise the students who aren’t going home. Stuck inside with assorted boys who don’t like him and a recently bereaved cook, Paul starts to see himself through new eyes. The spirit of Chrtistmas is about to be discovered – but in the hands of thoughtful film-maker Alexander Payne (Election, Sideways, The Descendants), it’s an unpredictable journey to that destination. Da’Vine Joy Randolph won pretty much every award going for her performance as cook Mary Lamb.

There’s Something In The Barn

Available from Saturday 9 November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15

Perennial comic supporting actor Martin Starr (Silicon Valley, Spider-Man: Far From Home) gets a lead role in this unusual Christmas movie as Bill Nordheim, who inherits a charming home in deepest Norway. Bill’s determined to live out the festive fairytale in the family’s new snowbound residence, but… well, the title tells you what you need to know. Cultures clash and spiteful Scandi sprites are awakened in a fun monster flick that’s a spiritual successor to the classic Gremlins.

Journey To Bethlehem

Available from Sunday 10 November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert PG

How do you make the greatest story ever told even greater? By reimagining it as a slick and romantic Hollywood musical, of course. Mary (Fiona Palomo, Outer Banks) dreams – and sings – about leaving her small town behind, and when she meets Joseph (Milo Manheim), it’s her chance to do just that. But the relationship has its share of complications, and one of those is King Herod (an outrageously flamboyant turn from Antonio Banderas), who’s paranoid about the rumours of a new king coming… A fun retelling of the nativity, with extremely hummable songs.

Dune: Part 2

Available from Friday 15 November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 12

The first Dune movie was an epic adventure – but it set up the even more thrilling action to come. Driven out of his home, Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) unites with the Fremen as they plot revenge against the ruthless House Harkonnen – but he soon faces a choice between love and the fate of the universe. Director Denis Villeneuve has created another instant sci-fi classic with this visionary film, and the incredible cast also includes Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson, Javier Bardem, Austin Butler, Florence Pugh, Christopher Walken and more.

‌

IF

Available from Friday 22 November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert U

What if the imaginary friends of our childhoods were real? That’s the idea behind this whimsical film, in which 12-year-old Bea (Cailey Fleming) starts seeing weird creatures everywhere. When she meets Cal (Ryan Reynolds), he explains that they’re IFs, or imaginary friends, and he has to find new placements for them after their young companions grow up and stop believing. And Bea soon realises she has a connection to the IFs… It’s an inventive comedy with some serious star power, written and directed by John Krasinski (A Quiet Place) and featuring voice roles for Steve Carell, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, George Clooney, Bradley Cooper, Awkwafina, Matt Damon and more.

Monkey Man

Available in November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 18

British actor Dev Patel went from teen drama Skins to starring roles in hit movies like Slumdog Millionaire and Lion, and now he has co-written, produced and directed Monkey Man, a delirious revenge thriller. Patel also stars as Kid, who saw his village burned down as a child and now works in an underground fight club as he awaits the opportunity for vengeance on those responsible – but when things don’t go to plan, he’s forced to go on the run. It’s an audacious and dynamic action movie, energetically directed by Patel, who’s clearly a film-making talent to be reckoned with.

Girl You Know It’s True

Available in November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15 TBC

Milli Vanilli: great-looking, great dancers, great big chart hits selling millions – what’s the problem? Well, Rob (Tijan Njie) and Fab (Elan Ben Ali) didn’t actually sing those hits. And the longer the charade goes on, the harder it becomes for everyone involved. Except producer Frank Farian (Matthias Schweighöfer), who’s raking it in. This clear-eyed biopic of the duo, which ends in tragedy, exposes how hopefuls like Rob and Fab are ripe for exploitation by an unfeeling industry: a stark reminder, as if we needed another one, of the perils of fame. ‌

Thanksgiving

Available in November in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 18 TBC

Writer/director Eli Roth established himself as the king of gory screen horror in the 2000s with Cabin Fever and Hostel. Now he returns to the genre where he made his name with this smart and blackly comic holiday-themed slasher flick. After a fatal Black Friday riot at a Massachusetts superstore, a killer begins to pick off survivors of the stampede one by one, while taunting the town’s residents on social media. It’s down to Sheriff Eric Newlon (Patrick Dempsey, Grey’s Anatomy) to stop the psycho so he can have a nice Thanksgiving dinner with the family. ‌
