Join us in revisiting one of Walt Disney’s most indelible and endearing films, Bambi, as it celebrates its landmark 80th anniversary.

In this animated classic, all the animals of the forest are excited by the birth of a new buck fawn named Bambi, who is set to inherit the title of prince of the forest. With the help of his mother and new friends – a loveable rabbit named Thumper and a bashful skunk named Flower – the young prince must learn valuable lessons about love, loss and life.

Elegantly and painstakingly drawn by hand over a period of two years, the film is widely considered one of the greatest animated films ever made. Rumour even has it that Bambi is next up on the Disney remake carousel, destined to be the recipient of a new, photorealistic computer animated version a la The Lion King (2019) and The Jungle Book (2016).

When a picture-perfect couple’s idyllic honeymoon is tragically cut short, Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot’s (Kenneth Branagh) Egyptian vacation aboard a glamorous river steamer turns into a terrifying search for a murderer. Set against an epic landscape of sweeping desert vistas and the majestic Giza pyramids, this tale of unbridled passion and consequences features an all-star cast of travellers, with enough wicked twists and turns to leave you guessing until the final, shocking denouement.

Based on Agatha Christie’s 1937 novel, Death on the Nile reunites the filmmaking team behind 2017’s Murder on the Orient Express, including Branagh once again pulling double duty as director. This time around, he’s joined by the likes of Gal Gadot, Armie Hamer, Annette Bening, Russell Brand, Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders as our company of victims/suspects. Although the real mystery should be why people keep getting on transportation with Poirot...
