(Click on the picture to enlarge.)

Plot synopsis:
“Moll (Jessie Buckley) is the black sheep in her otherwise reserved, stiff-upper-lip British family and their country-club world. Her adventurous spirit and fiery temperament are too much for them to handle. Home-schooled by her controlling mother following a violent incident in her preteen past, Moll is, at first glance, quiet and unassuming; but how long will she be punished for something she did all those years ago?
After escaping her own garden birthday party in favour of a night out dancing with strangers, she meets Pascal (Johnny Flynn), a rugged hunter with a guarded past. He proves to be just the tonic she needs. Eager to leave her family, she makes the sweetly satisfying, if rash, decision, to move in with him. But when a local teenage girl goes missing following a string of murders on their otherwise tranquil isle of Jersey, Moll must decide what and whom to trust — her own instincts or the animal she now calls home?”

Well, Johnny Flynn makes for one handsome beast, doesn’t he?

The film has yet to get an official release date.

Plot synopsis:
“Two men square off over control of a motorcycle gang.
While Knuck (Matt Nable) has been in prison, his surrogate son, Mark, nicknamed ‘Paddo’ (Ryan Corr) has minded the store. Paddo has modernized the activities of the club, expanded their enterprise, and brought in new members — all endeavours that threaten Knuck’s position on his return. Both men are supported and influenced by their equally strong wives, each woman as rabidly ambitious for her husband as for herself. Tensions mount when Paddo’s younger brother, Skink (Josh McConville), creates a problem for the club, and Paddo must choose between familial devotion or loyalty to Knuck and the club he heads.”

As the two drive into the wooded European countryside and reach their destination, it gradually dawns on Ines why she has been asked to accompany her sister. Horrified at first, she fights to understand her sister’s intentions as the two women confront their unsettled past and, more importantly, their future.”

(Click on a picture to enlarge.)

Plot synopsis:
“Judge Fiona Maye (Emma Thompson) is married to her work, which has become a problem for her husband, Jack (Stanley Tucci), who announces that he wants to have an affair.

The question: should a couple who are Jehovah’s Witnesses be permitted to deny a life-saving blood transfusion to their leukemia-stricken 17-year-old son (Fionn Whitehead)? Fiona finds herself taking unusual measures to determine her verdict — measures that will have far-reaching consequences.”

Refusing blood transfusions because of religion is just dumb, especially when a young life is at stake.

Elle Fanning, Douglas Booth, Bel Powley, and Tom Sturridge are all featured on this new official picture of Mary Shelley (aka A Storm in the Stars), the upcoming biography romantic drama movie directed by Haifaa Al-Mansour:

(Click on the picture to enlarge.)

Plot synopsis:
“The film depicts the author Mary Shelley as a fiercely modern 19th-century woman, and her Frankenstein as the product of unbridled imagination and profound grief.
Daughter of political philosophers William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft, who died giving birth to her, Mary (Elle Fanning) is a bookish adolescent of humble means when she meets Percy Bysshe Shelley (Douglas Booth), who, though only 21, is already a celebrated young poet — and a shameless womanizer with one collapsing marriage already under his belt. Defying her beloved but disapproving father, Mary absconds with Shelley — her stepsister, Claire (Bel Powley), in tow. Mary seeks ‘unconventional approaches to living’, and finds it in spades with her debt-ridden bon vivant scribe, who desires neither monogamy nor the constraints of fatherly responsibility. Yet Percy believes in Mary, and two years into their union he whisks her away to a Swiss chateau for a summer of debauchery presided over by Lord Byron (Tom Sturridge), where Mary will confront personal demons and compose the most influential horror novel of all time.

Those young people obviously didn’t have to work in the field or at a factory…

The UK release date of the movie Mary Shelley is set to July 6, 2018. Not official US release date yet.

We just spotted this new official picture of Woman Walks Ahead, the upcoming sweeping historical biography drama movie directed by Susanna White:

(Click on the picture to enlarge.)

Plot synopsis:
“The film explores a pivotal yet little-known encounter between a pioneering European artist and an Indigenous icon.
A strong-willed nonconformist, Swissborn, New York–bred Catherine Weldon (Jessica Chastain) lived life on her own terms. She was a passionate painter, and by the 1880s had become committed to the cause of Native Americans. Woman Walks Ahead chronicles Weldon’s journey to Dakota to paint Hunkpapa Lakota holy man Sitting Bull (Michael Greyeyes). Far more than a mere portrait session, the meeting inspires a conversation that will change both artist and subject.
Weldon became Sitting Bull’s secretary, interpreter, and advocate, but not before these two powerful people would contend with their differences in assumptions, in outlook, and in the long reach of their respective histories.”

You may recognize Actor Michael Greyeyes as Sitting Bull and Actress Jessica Chastain as Catherine Weldon. Do you think love is in the air for those two?

Still no official release date.
