'MR BURTON'

AN AMAZING CHANGE.

On to the comps - and kicking off today is our giveaway for 'Mr Burton'. Before the fame. Before the legend. There was a teacher who saw the fire. Set in post-war Wales, 'Mr Burton' is the powerful true story of the bond between a gifted teen and the mentor who helped shape him into the acting great, Richard Burton. This is one for lovers of British drama, theatre, and stories that stir the soul. To win one of five double passes to see 'Mr Burton' in cinemas, click here now.

'THE LIFE OF CHUCK'

EVERY LIFE IS ITS OWN UNIVERSE.

Also brand new today is our giveaway for 'The Life of Chuck'. The life-affirming, gene-bending story based on Stephen King’s novella, 'The Life of Chuck' is a beautiful and unconventional tale that unfolds in reverse, exploring the life of Charles Krantz in three distinct acts. Tracing Chuck’s life through moments of joy, sorrow, and wonder, it’s a deeply emotional meditation on memory, mortality, and the small, profound moments that shape a human life. Click here now to win one of nine double passes to see 'The Life of Chuck' in cinemas.

'BABE'

CELEBRATING THIS LOVELY LITTLE MIRACLE.

There are films that seem to exist outside of time and place, either their own or ours. 30 years after 'Babe' first trotted on to the big screen, it's still just as funny, just as forceful, just as moving, and just as rousing as it ever was. Babe is a beautifully crafted character, voiced rambunctiously by Christine Cavanaugh with open-hearted warmth and emotion, but his power as a character is the way he unlocks those around him. To take a trip back to the farm as Daniel revisits 'Babe' three decades after its release, click here now.

'DESCENDANTS'

STILL ROTTEN TO THE CORE.

'Descendants' was released 10 years ago - and it was the last big ooh-rah for the Disney Channel. It may have been born in corporate synergy, but it turned into so much more. It encapsulates everything we love about the Disney Channel: young talent at the start of their career, musical bops and endless love and passion, put into something targeted for kids. Click here now to explore a really rotten film with Chris in his retrospective review of 'Descendants'.
