How about a prequel preview with the President of Panem!? Then join us for the highly anticipated prequel to The Hunger Games, THE HUNGER GAMES: THE BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS AND SNAKES starring Tom Blyth, Rachel Zegler, Peter Dinklage, and Academy Award winner Viola Davis. Based on the best-selling novel by Suzanne Collins, you’re invited to return to the games and discover why everyone hungers for something.

Years before he would become the tyrannical President of Panem, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow (Blyth) is the last hope for his fading lineage, a once-proud family that has fallen from grace in a post-war Capitol. With the 10th annual Hunger Games fast approaching, the young Snow is alarmed when he is assigned to mentor Lucy Gray Baird (Zegler), the female tribute from impoverished District 12. But, after Lucy Gray commands all of Panem’s attention by defiantly singing during the reaping ceremony, Snow thinks he might be able to turn the odd in their favour.

THE HUNGER GAMES: THE BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS AND SNAKES Red Carpet Preview includes a glass of sparkling on arrival Premium Lounge Red Carpet Preview Session also available.

IN CINEMAS 2 – 29 NOVEMBER

SYNOPSIS:

Presented by Palace, the 2023 Cunard British Film Festival returns in November with the finest British filmmaking, production and acting, including many of Britain’s most enduring and well-known faces.

The 2023 Festival will open with the premiere of ONE LIFE starring Sir Anthony Hopkins, direct from its World Premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. Based on a deeply moving true story of kindness and compassion that was almost forgotten for 50 years, Hopkins delivers a remarkable performance as Sir Nicholas Winton, also known as the “British Schindler”, who helped rescue hundreds of children from Europe on the verge of World War II.

The Festival centrepiece is THE CRITIC, a wickedly mischievous reimagining of Anthony Quinn’s novel Curtain Call, featuring an all-star cast led by Sir Ian McKellen and Gemma Arterton.

Closing the Festival is the Australian Premiere of WICKED LITTLE LETTERS, based on a true scandal of the 1920s. It stars Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley as neighbours in a small town whose residents start receiving anonymous, expletive-laden letters.

Put your answer on Twitter, Instagram (with the #TheKiller), Facebook, or below!

ONLY IN CINEMAS OCTOBER

SYNOPSIS:

From acclaimed filmmaker David Fincher (Se7en, Fight Club, and Gone Girl), and starring Academy Award Nominee Michael Fassbender  and Academy Award Winner Tilda Swinton comes the neo-noir action thriller THE KILLER

A man solitary and cold, methodical and unencumbered, the killer waits in the shadows, watching for his next target. And yet the longer  he waits, the more he thinks he’s losing his mind, if not his cool. A brutal, bloody and stylish noir story of a professional assassin lost in a  world without a moral compass, this is a case study of a man alone, armed to the teeth and slowly losing his mind. 

“This is a thriller of pure surface and style and managed with terrific flair and Fassbender’s careworn, inscrutable face is just right for it.” – The Guardian 

THE KILLER Red Carpet Preview includes a Stone & Wood beer on arrival.
