Sorry, Baby

Sorry, Baby (15)

Monday 8 Sep 20252:30pm

Eva Victor writes and stars in their impressive directorial debut, a surprisingly humorous and healing story about coming to terms with past trauma. English Professor Agnes teaches at the same rural New England college she attended as a grad student, living in the same home she used to rent with her best friend Lydie during their studies. When Lydie comes to stay with her, it becomes exceedingly clear that Agnes’ life has been moving slowly compared to her married, city-dwelling former roommate.


Capturing the details that enrich friendships and the barely concealed vulnerabilities resulting from past experiences, Victor’s film skilfully balances humour and heartbreak as the trauma lurking behind Agnes’s troubles is gradually revealed. Produced by Barry Jenkins, Sorry, Baby was a sensation at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, earning Victor the prestigious Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award.

The Life of Chuck

Mike Flanagan’s name has become synonymous with horror, after his successful adaptations of beloved ghost classics The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor. The Life of Chuck is the third of his collaborations with Stephen King, whose work he previously adapted in Gerald’s Game and Doctor Sleep. Less interested in scares than in life affirming sincerity, the film is a cosy science fiction tale of an extraordinary ordinary man called Charles Kantz, ever present in the lives of every citizen of a town on the brink of apocalypse. The less said the better. The film unfolds like an uplifting reminder that everyone contains multitudes

Voted the best Irish film ever made in a poll sponsored by Jameson Whiskey in 2005, The Commitment’s charts the unlikely journey of Dublin soul band ‘The Commitments’. Ambitious Jimmy Rabbitte (Robert Arkins) takes control of his friend’s struggling wedding band and transforms them into ten-piece soul group ‘The Commitments’, recruiting new members from around his working-class community. From these humble beginnings the band achieves fame in Dublin until tensions and inflating egos threaten to scupper their chance at success. Based on the novel from Booker-prize winning author Roddy Doyle’s ‘The Barrytown Trilogy’, The Commitments mixes professional actors and musicians, including ‘The Frames’ Glen Hansard, Maria Doyle Kennedy, and the rousing vocals of Andrew Strong, putting the band’s performances at the heart of the plot. With a shrewd eye for the real attitudes of working class Dublin, The Commitments tells an often comic drama about people struggling to make their way in the world.
