Films to watch out for – August to September
As the summer draws to a close and autumn fast approaches it’s time to say farewell to the big blockbusters and begin to prepare ourselves for the inevitable slide into awards season.
August to October is always a strange time in cinema as distributors move away from the big tent-pole movies into the more dramatic, kudos-likely fare. But, as always, there are plenty of films that are worth getting excited about.

Looking forward to London theatre
For the first time in a while, there are lots of new plays coming into London that I actually want to see.
Usually I get my fill of theatre when I’m in New York. I tend to fill my week with back-to-back shows. There’s been little in London that I’ve wanted to see.
Is Bradley Cooper heading to the West End?
Bradley Cooper is rumoured to be planning to tread the boards in London this spring in a production of The Elephant Man.
Cooper’s currently starring in a Broadway production of the play which has been getting stellar reviews and breaking box office records.
According to Deadline, producers want to bring the production to London form limited 12-week run beginning in April.
No deal’s been struck with a theatre yet but I imagine it would be an instant sell-out once everything’s confirmed.
It’s also great to see a Broadway play (and not a musical) make the transfer to London.
Best Actor race – some thoughts
Already this year I’ve been lucky enough to see what I think should be four of the five Best Actor nominees at the Oscars.
Benedict Cumberbatch, Steve Carell, Michael Keaton and Eddie Redmayne all give superb performances and should therefore be recognised.
Of those four I’m finding it hard to pick a winner – I know the smart money is currently on Keaton and it would be a typical Oscars-comeback story. Cumberbatch and Redmayne are both excellent as British mathematical geniuses and both brought me to tears. I didn’t like Foxcatcher – I found it too dark – but I did appreciate Carell’s work – I’ve never seen him so unlikeable and menacing on screen. It’s a complete about turn for his regular persona.
Who could be the fifth nominee? Well overnight in LA David Oyelowo has emerged as a serious contender following the debut of Selma at the AFI Fest. Wouldn’t it be fantastic to have Brits among the contenders?
There are still some other actors who could crash the party – I think Timothy Spall is still in contention for Mr Turner, as I’m writing this I’m waiting on reaction to Bradley Cooper’s performance in American Sniper and what about Johnny Depp in Into The Woods which no-one has seen yet?
It’s all speculation of course but it’s shaping up to be an incredibly strong category this year. I just wish we could say the same for Beat Actress.
