Casino

Martin Scorsese’s Casino, his glittering, brutal epic of greed, power, and betrayal returns to the big screen for its 30th anniversary!

Set against the neon-lit decadence of 1970s Las Vegas, Casino tracks the rise and fall of Sam “Ace” Rothstein (Robert De Niro), a meticulous odds-maker tapped to run a mob-backed casino. As Ace builds his empire under the watchful eye of the Chicago Outfit, he’s flanked by a loose-cannon enforcer (a feral Joe Pesci) and a hustler-turned-wife (Sharon Stone in a career-best, Oscar-nominated performance). What unfolds is a tale of loyalty eroded by ambition, love warped by control, and a city where the house always wins—until it doesn’t.

American Psycho

Mary Harron’s pitch-black adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’s controversial novel turns the horror of capitalism into literal bloodsport with American Psycho, the pick for our Page To Screen series this month!

Set in a world of business cards, designer suits, and haute cuisine no one actually eats, American Psycho is as much a razor-wire satire as it is a psychological thriller. Harron directs with icy precision, peeling back the layers of toxic masculinity, status obsession, and moral decay with wit as sharp as an ax to the face.

Stylish, savage, and deeply quotable, this cult classic remains disturbingly relevant and feature’s a star-making performance from legendary actor Christian Bale.
