My Week With Marilyn
At moments hilarious and others touching, this an entertaining 'no business like show business' story that revolves around the shooting of The Prince And The Showgirl starring Sir Laurence Olivier (Branagh) and Marilyn Monroe (Williams) in 1956. Lowly assistant Colin (Redmayne) befriends the emotionally fragile screen goddess and so gets to see the clash of titanic egos up close and personal. The Oscar talk has already started for Williams who nails the troubled Monroe's combination of needy little girl lost, spontaneous actress and intoxicating sexpot. But its Branagh who steals the show, as the vain Olivier whose desire for Marilyn turns to hot indignation at her outrageous behaviour.

For any event that displays this icon, one free '18s & under' ticket is available with any other ticket purchased. In many cases, this effectively allows two persons aged 18 or under to attend live shows for just £ 2.50 each!
The 'TBC' cetificate means that an event is waiting for the certificate to be confirmed.
The 'U' symbol stands for 'Universal'. A 'U' film should be suitable for audiences aged four years and over. However, it is impossible to predict what might upset a particular child, especially at this lower end of the category range.
'PG' stands for Parental Guidance. This means a film is suitable for general viewing, but some scenes may be unsuitable for younger children. A 'PG' film should not disturb a child aged around eight or older. Parents should consider whether the content might upset younger or more sensitive children.
The A stands for 'accompanied' and 'advisory'. '12A' means that anyone aged 12 or over can go and see the film unaccompanied. Children younger than 12 may see the film if they are accompanied by an adult (eg someone over the age of 18), who must watch the film with them.
No-one under 12 is allowed to see a '12' film at the cinema or buy/rent a '12' rated DVD or video game. Parents are warned that '12' rated works are not suitable for children under 12 years of age.
No-one under 18 is allowed to see an '18' film at the cinema or buy/rent an '18' rated DVD or video game. No '18' rated works are suitable for children.
