The Goonies
Mikey and his friends discover a mysterious pirate map in the attic and
decide to seek its treasure in the hope that it could save their homes from
a local developer’s plans to build a country club. The Goonies, as they call
themselves, follow the map to an underground cavern where they cross paths
with a gang of dangerous criminals. Forced to escape from the evil Fratellis,
their route leads them through a series of perilous booby traps to the long
lost treasure of One-Eyed Willy and a safe return home.

NT Live: The Lehman Trilogy
National Theatre Film Series National Theatre Film Series Presents The
Lehman Trilogy by Stefano Massini, adapted by Ben Power directed by Sam
Mendes
The story of a family and a company that changed the world, told in three parts on a single evening. Academy Award-winner Sam Mendes (Skyfall, The Ferryman) directs Simon Russell Beale, Adam Godley and Ben Miles who play the Lehman Brothers, their sons and grandsons. On a cold September morning in 1844 a young man from Bavaria stands on a New York dockside. Dreaming of a new life in the new world. He is joined by his two brothers and an American epic begins. 163 years later, the firm they establish – Lehman Brothers – spectacularly collapses into bankruptcy, and triggers the largest financial crisis in history.
This critically acclaimed and five-time Olivier Award nominated play
features stunning set design from Es Devlin (NT Live: Hamlet) and will be
broadcast live from London’s West End as part of National Theatre Live’s
10th Birthday season.

Bernini - Great Art on Screen
“No artist defined 17th-century Rome more than Gian Lorenzo Bernini did,
working under nine popes and leaving an indelible mark on the Eternal City.
And there is probably no better place to appreciate his talent and genius
than the Borghese Gallery in Rome… But during the remarkable exhibition
titled ‘Bernini,’ visiting may be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.” – The
New York Times
The selection of more than 60 masterpieces on display at the Villa
Borghese in Rome has been defined by art experts as Bernini’s return home.
Five centuries have passed since the birth of the artist’s magnificent
sculptures and through exclusive, never-before-seen footage, the curators of
this stunning exhibition uncover the details of these treasures, on loan
from the world’s most prestigious museums for this extraordinary cinematic
experience.
