Les Miserables – The Movie
Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, Les Misérables tells the story of ex-prisoner Jean Valjean (Hugh Jackman), hunted for decades by the ruthless policeman Javert (Russell Crowe), after he breaks parole. When Valjean agrees to care for factory worker Fantine’s (Anne Hathaway) young daughter, Cosette, their lives change forever.

Gangster Squad
Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show, reaping the ill-gotten gains from drugs, guns, prostitutes and – if he has his way – every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all with the protection of the police and the politicians who are under his control. It’s enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop… except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O’Mara (Josh Brolin) and Jerry Wooters (Ryan Gosling), who come together to try to tear Cohen’s world apart.

Available in Australia to rent or to buy from 15th May, priced from AU$5.99/AU$24.99. Available to buy in the UK from £11.99

Hitchcock
Anthony Hopkins and Helen Mirren are spellbinding in this provocative story about the making of one of cinemas most iconic films. Plagued by both a reckless ego and nagging self-doubt Hollywood legend Alfred Hitchcock becomes obsessed with a grisly murder story that the studios won’t back. Determined, he risks his reputation his home and even the love of his wife Alma, as he sets out to make the film.
