A GRIPPING RESTAURANT DRAMA.
On to the comps - and wrapping up today is our giveaway for 'La Cocina'. Amidst the lunch rush of a frantic Manhattan restaurant, a series of events threaten to bring the kitchen to a crashing halt. While food orders flood in and pressure mounts to boiling point, the passionate relationship between chef Pedro (Raúl Briones) and waitress Julia (Academy Award nominee Rooney Mara) is starting to fray. But when missing money and shocking revelations cause things to spiral out of control, it’s not long before one of New York’s busiest kitchens is on the verge of imploding. Featuring an array of outstanding performances led by Briones and Mara, 'La Cocina' is a gripping, exhilarating and truly cinematic new film from acclaimed director Alonso Ruizpalacios.

LETTING NATURE TAKE OVER.
Brand new is our giveaway for 'Wilding'. Based on Isabella Tree’s best-selling book by the same title, Wilding tells the story of a couple that bets on nature for the future of their failing four-hundred-year-old estate. The young couple battles entrenched tradition and dares to place the fate of their farm in the hands of nature. Ripping down the fences, they set the land back to the wild and entrust its recovery to a motley mix of animals both tame and wild. It is the beginning of a grand experiment that will become one of the most significant rewilding experiments in Europe. To win one of five double passes to see 'Wilding' at a special preview screening, click here now./megapic/anne-rices-mayfair-witches-season-2.jpg)

IN DEFENCE OF THE DIRECTOR'S CUT.
It's been 20 years since the theatrical edition of 'Kingdom of Heaven' first hit cinemas. 20th Century Fox insisted that filmmaker Ridley Scott adhere to the model he had set with 'Gladiator', with an emphasis on action and romance. But Scott hadn't made that film - he'd aimed for something far more ambitious. Despite its disappointing theatrical reception, its true form was finally revealed with the release of the Director's Cut. Join Daniel as he defends the true hidden gem that is the Director's Cut of 'Kingdom of Heaven'./megapic/bluesky-2.jpg)
