How to Have Sex

In this British title, a group of besties expect to have the time of their lives on the party town of Malia in Crete, Greece. Unfortunately for the trio of long term friends, they were born into a movie that looks to examine that world of hedonism a little more closely. Their whirlwind, out of control drinking tests their lives, friendships and even their own self-identities. Directed by Molly Manning Walker in what will be her debut feature, How to Have Sex looks to be a direct representation of those anxiety ridden days after one too many where every decision throughout your life seems like it was the wrong one.

May December

May December stars Natalie Portman and Julianne Moore in this drama about the ripple effect of a tabloid romance that once gripped the nation. Now, 20 years after the romance sparked, Hollywood star Gracie Atherton-Yu (Moore) and her husband Joe (Charles Melton) are preparing for their twins to graduate high school. Meanwhile, a less-veteran Hollywood actress, Elizabeth (Portman), comes to their Southern home to better understand Gracie before playing her in a film. However, the womens identities become oddly entangled as family dynamics begin to rip apart.

Firebrand

Brazilian filmmaker Karim Ainouzs first English-language film stars Oscar winner Alicia Vikander (The Danish Girl) as Catherine Parr, the sixth and last wife of Henry VIII (Jude Law). Based on the 2013 novel The Queens Gambit by Elizabeth Fremantle, this feminist psychological thriller follows Parr, who is romantically entangled with Thomas Seymour (Sam Riley) when she catches the eye of the king, still desperately seeking a male heir. But, after she marries him, Parr helps to make Princesses Mary and Elizabeth eligible to inherit the throne.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

Harrison Fords final turn as the whip-toting archaeologist Indiana Jones is among the most highly anticipated of the film festival. In the world premiere of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, the 80-year-old action hero will be reunited with his trusty leather jacket and fedora for a fifth and final time. His co-stars include Fleabags Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who was born four years after the first in the franchise, Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981). Dial of Destiny is also the first Indiana Jones film not to be directed by Steven Spielberg though he does have an executive producer credit.
