Nerve
Are you a watcher or a player?
High school senior Vee is adverse to
taking risks, so her friends sign her up
for a new online game known as Nerve.
It’s a bit like Truth or Dare (minus the truth),
with watchers paying to watch and players
playing to win (both cash and glory). At first –
when the tasks are still relatively tame – Vee
enjoys letting her hair down (especially when
she gets to smooch the gorgeous Ian), but pretty
soon proceedings start getting out of hand...
Dangerously so! The only way out is for Vee to
win the entire game – but at what cost?
Starring Scream Queens’ Emma Roberts as
Vee and Bad Neighbours’ Dave Franco as Ian,
this is a chilling, thoroughly modern horror
story that takes the dangers of the internet and
magnifies them tenfold. So ask yourself: “Are
you a watcher or a player?”

Almodóvar tackles grief and guilt in this art-house drama
A new Pedro
Almodóvar film is
always worth getting
excited about. After all, the
acclaimed Spanish director,
whose work includes Women
on the Verge of a Nervous
Breakdown and All About
My Mother, has 119 award
wins to his name and a further

103 nominations. His latest
work, which debuted at Cannes
this year, sees mother Julieta
and daughter Antía struggling
to come to terms with the
death of Xoan (Julieta’s
husband and Antía’s father).
A brooding study of grief
and guilt that’s quite simply
not to be missed.
