Dark new British drama Jellyfish captures the tough life of a Margate family, for whom the solution to life’s bleakness is laughter.

It’s a story of guns, power and Washington ethics: the new political thriller Miss Sloan opens this week, starring Jessica Chastain as a lobbyist ‘hired to win’ in a battle over gun legislation.

It’s a classic movie formula. Put two men who hate each other on a tense car journey , forced to work together; then watch as they begrudgingly come to develop a mutual respect. A new film called ‘The Journey’ does just this, but casts Northern Ireland’s deeply opposed political leaders as the central characters.
