Collection of two comedies. In 'No Strings Attached' (2011), when long-time friends Emma (Natalie Portman) and Adam (Ashton Kutcher) decide to add a physical dimension to their relationship and move into 'friends with benefits' territory, they agree to keep things strictly casual and on a 'no strings' basis. But before long both of them find things becoming more complicated than planned as those pesky emotions get in the way. In 'Morning Glory' (2010), a sparky, ambitious young television producer spies an opportunity to claw her way up the career ladder when she is offered a job on 'Daybreak', the worst-performing morning chat show in the ratings. Her decision to hire veteran newscaster Mike Pomeroy (Harrison Ford) to host the show meets with scepticism from network executive Jerry (Jeff Goldblum) and co-host Colleen Peck (Diane Keaton), and with little enthusiasm from Pomeroy himself, who is obliged by his contract to take this less-than-promising gig. Can Becky overcome the poor ratings and in-fighting to bring the team together and transform the show into something to be proud of?
Ben Palmer directs this romantic comedy starring Simon Pegg and Lake Bell. When 40-year-old divorcee Jack (Pegg) mistakenly believes 34-year-old Nancy (Bell) to be his much younger blind date she decides to go along with it, taking a chance in the hope of finding the right man for her. The pair have a great, if chaotic, time together until Jack discovers the truth about Nancy's identity. Has she ruined her chance of a future with Jack? The cast also includes Ophelia Lovibond, Olivia Williams, Rory Kinnear and Ken Stott.
Nick Frost stars in the title role of this comedy drama written and directed by Robert B. Weide. Set in Watford in 1969, Mr Sloane is a down on his luck accountant who has recently been fired from his job, left by his wife and even failed by a badly executed suicide attempt. The only things keeping him sane are his friends Ross (Peter Serafinowicz), Reggie (Brendan Patricks) and Beans (Lawry Lewin) and the evenings he spends with them down the pub. All, it seems, is lost until he meets a young American woman called Robin (Ophelia Lovibond) who takes him under her free-spirited wing and shows him what life should be. The episodes are: 'Meet Mr. Sloane', 'It's a Date, Mr. Sloane', 'Everybody Must Get Sloaned', 'Merry Christmas, Mr. Sloane', 'Happy New Year, Mr. Sloane: Part 1' and 'Happy New Year, Mr. Sloane: Part 2'.
Sam Taylor Wood's directorial debut is a chronicle of John Lennon's teenage years. Set in 1950s Liverpool, the film tells the story of the spirited but troubled fifteen-year-old Lennon (Aaron Johnson), who finds himself caught in the crossfire between his formidable Aunt Mimi (Kristin Scott Thomas) and his mother Julia (Anne-Marie Duff). When John meets fellow musician and kindred spirit Paul McCartney (Thomas Sangster), his creative genius at last finds an outlet and the most famous partnership in music is born. But just as John's new life begins, a dark truth from his past leads to a tragedy he will never escape.
