Centering on the intriguing love triangle between the ever more insane Danish King Christian VII (Mikkel Boe Følsgaard), the royal physician who is a man of enlightenment and idealism Struensee (Mads Mikkelsen) and the young but strong Queen Caroline Mathilda (Alicia Vikander), A ROYAL AFFAIR is the gripping tale of brave idealists who risk everything in their pursuit of freedom for their people… Above all it is the story of a passionate and forbidden romance that changed an entire nation.

The Harwood Museum of Art in collaboration with Emerging Pictures proudly presents: From Up on Poppy Hill

From the legendary Studio Ghibli (Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro) comes an inspired coming-of-age story set in 1960s Japan. In a lovingly hand-drawn tale, two students develop a budding romance as they join forces to save their high school’s ramshackle clubhouse from demolition. Japan’s biggest box-office hit of the year and winner of the Japan Academy Prize for Animation, FROM UP ON POPPY HILL conjures up a pure, wistful and nuanced evocation of the past and young love through its rich palette and painterly detail of glistening harbors, sun-drenched gardens and bustling cityscapes. English-language featuring the voices of Jamie Lee Curtis, Christina Hendricks, Ron Howard, Aubrey Plaza and others.

The Harwood Museum of Art in collaboration with Emerging Pictures proudly presents: Leonie

In the lush tradition of the glorious films of Merchant and Ivory comes the true life story of Leonie Gilmour (Emily Mortimer: “The Newsroom”, Hugo), whose life crossed continents, wars and cultures, embodied with courage and passion in search of art and freedom. As an independent young woman seeking to overcome the restrictive female roles in turn-of-the century America, she is retained by the famous Japanese poet, Yone Noguchi, as his editor. Their relationship evolves romantically, however Yone abruptly leaves when she shares with him that she is pregnant. Following him to Japan, she is cast alone to raise their son in a society with few opportunities for women.

A tender and inspiring story of a remarkable woman who nurtures the amazing artistic talent of their son who has only one way to succeed and one person to guide him, as he grows into the world renown artist, Isamu Noguchi.

“Exquisitely acted… lushly photographed.. a remarkable portrait of a brave, uncompromising woman.” – Rex Reed, New York Observer

“This is an exquisite movie about a courageous, determined woman. A wonderful story.” – Jeffrey Lyons/ LYONS DEN RADIO
