In Irish cinemas September 25th

There's a biopic of James Dean called Life out this week, and that's your pick of major releases. Otherwise there's a cancer-weepy, some drama Kate Mara looking scared.

Life

Control director and former rock photographer Anton Corbijn tells the story of James Dean through the eyes of a man who crossed his path right before fame and misfortune. Dane DeHaan makes for an uncanny Dean (though we're not sure about the voice) and Robert Pattinson the fortunate photographer.

Captive

Kate Mara is menaced by David Oyelowo in this film, which is based on a real incident that happened in the US in 2005. After a spree of violence, an escaped prisoner takes a young woman hostage and things escalate from there. The real case is pretty insane, and the film looks like it is too.

Miss You Already

Drew Barrymore and Toni Collette are bestest-buddies, until tragedy strikes and their relationship takes a turn for the weepy. This comes from Catherine Hardwicke, who gifted the world with the first Twilight movie and launched a massive franchise.
