Funny, heartfelt and emphatically moving, I Swear dramatises the true story of Tourette syndrome campaigner John Davidson and his quest to live normally in a world that insisted on calling him different.

Diagnosed aged 15, John’s Tourette’s made him the target of huge misunderstanding in 1980s Britain, and he faced hostility, bullying and occasionally outright violence for much of his youth. Aged 16, he was the subject of BBC TV documentary John’s Not Mad (a Q.E.D. episode that’s still ranked one of the 50 best British docs in national polls) and subsequently became one of the UK’s most passionate advocates for greater awareness and acceptance of Tourette’s, for which work he received an MBE in 2019.

Academy Award-winning director Chloé Zhao’s adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s bestselling novel features mesmerising performances by Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal.

Agnes, the wife of William Shakespeare, struggles to come to terms with the loss of their only son, Hamnet – the grief driving a wedge between the couple. Shakespeare channels the tragedy and his sorrow into his work, creating Hamlet. Zhao (Nomadland, The Rider) brings a rawness and honesty to this profound portrait of love, grief and the power of storytelling.

Creed and Black Panther director Ryan Coogler teams up once again with star Michael B. Jordan in this highly anticipated supernatural thriller set in the 1930s Jim Crow-era South. The actor plays twin brothers who are desperate to leave their troubled lives behind. They return to their hometown, only to discover a great evil awaiting them. Coogler wrenches every last drop of suspense out of his original story, while Jordan impresses in a dual role.
