In the sublime new film from Jim Jarmusch, Adam Driver gives a career-best performance as Paterson, a bus driver in the New Jersey city of the same name. He's also a poet, recording his daily observations and thoughts into a notebook.

Paterson thrives on routine: he drives his bus route, he goes home for dinner with his wife Laura (Golshifteh Farahani), he walks his dog, he visits his local bar for one beer. By contrast Laura's world is ever-changing, with new projects and ideas striking her daily. The film quietly observes the triumphs and defeats of daily life, along with the poetry evident in its smallest details.

From Mary Harron comes THE NOTORIOUS BETTIE PAGE, a provocative exploration of sexuality and pop culture taking us into the fascinating world of famous pin up girl, Bettie Page. Gretchen Mol plays Page who become a photo model sensation in 1950s New York.

Bettie's legendary fetish poses made her the target of a senate investigation into pornography, and transformed her into an erotic icon who continues to enthrall fans to this day. Depicting Bettie's often accidental journey to celebrity, THE NOTORIOUS BETTIE PAGE captures a vanished but not entirely unfamiliar America, where sex is a secret obsession that can incite furor at the highest levels of government. In a stylistic tour-de-force, Harron recreates the look and feel of the films of Bettie's 1950s heyday, variously evoking the era's gritty black & white noirs, lush technicolour melodramas, even its Super 8 home movies. We step into the past to follow the life and career of Bettie Page, a quiet, good-natured Southern beauty who found her calling in front of the camera and radiated vitality and joy in every single pose and every costume. Though her fetish tableaux may now appear more quaint than shocking, BETTIE PAGE remains a wonder to behold.

Created and directed by Paolo Sorrentino, 'The Young Pope' tells the story of Lenny Belardo, aka Pius XIII (Jude Law), the first American Pope in history. Young and charming, his election seems to be the result of a simple yet effective media strategy on the part of the College of Cardinals.

But appearances can be deceptive. Above all, in the place and among the people who have chosen the great mystery of God as the compass guiding their existence. That place is the Vatican and those people are the leaders of the Church. And Pius XIII proves to be the most mysterious and contradictory of them all. Shrewd and naive, ironical and pedantic, primeval and cutting-edge, doubting and resolute, melancholy and ruthless, Pius XIII tries to cross the endless river of human solitude to find a God he can give to mankind. And to himself.
