Spotlight on icon in Sunday Cruise

THIS Sunday (May 18), the Regal Picturehouse in Boroma Way, Henley, is holding Tom Cruise Day.

The actor is to receive an honorary Fellowship from the British Film Institute this summer.

Ahead of the general release of Mission: Impossible The Final Reckoning (12A), the itinerary for the day is Jerry Maguire (15), Rain Man (15), Top Gun (12A) and A Few Good Men (15).

Two brothers who have grown up on different sides of the class divide in France are reunited in Emmanuel Courcol’s new film, The Marching Band (15), out today at the Regal Picturehouse.

When conductor Thibault (Benjamin Lavernhe) is struck down by leukaemia, he discovers that he is adopted and his sister is not a blood relation.

However, he finds out he has an older brother, Pierre (Jimmy Lecocq), who is also a match for a bone marrow transplant.

Jazz-loving Pierre is a factory worker but he also plays the trombone in the factory band. When the band is abandoned by their conductor, Thibault has an idea…

The film, which is in French with English subtitles, has a running time of one hour, 43 minutes.

Documentary A New Kind of Wilderness (12A) follows the Payne family, Maria and Nik and their four children, Ulv, Falk, Freja and Ronja. Living a life of self-sufficiency in a forest in Norway, the children are home-schooled and completely at home in nature.

When tragedy strikes, the family is forced to travel several different paths.

The film has a running time of one hour, 24 minutes, followed by a 20-minute question and answer programme.

Continuing are Ocean With David Attenborough (PG), The Penguin Lessons (12A) and Thunderbolts* (12A).
