(Israel – comedy/drama – 2007) 87m An Egyptian police band arrives in Israel to perform at the Arab Arts Cultural Centre but ends up in the wrong town.

Oscar winner Julian Fellowes’ (Gosford Park) screenplay follows Queen Victoria’s (Emily Blunt) early rise to power; from an object of a royal power-struggle to her legendary marriage to Prince Albert (Rupert Friend). Locked in a life where even the most basic of tasks must be accompanied by a minder, Victoria’s life is ruled by her power-hungry mother (Miranda Richardson) and adviser Sir John Conroy (Mark Strong). Appointed to the throne following the death of King William (Jim Broadbent), Victoria must navigate the aristocracy including politicians (Paul Bettany) and foreign dignitaries (Thomas Kretschmann). Packed with drama, breath-taking cinematography, stunning costumes created by Oscar winner Sandy Powell and an outstanding ensemble cast, this well-groomed drama from Jean-Marc Vallee is cinema good enough for royalty.
