We profile and preview some of the latest new restorations of classic films before they are re-released in cinemas and also shine new light on lost films which have recently been rediscovered and presented at our partner festival Il Cinema Ritrovato in Bologna.

This year's restorations feature Merchant & Ivory's award winning adaptation of E.M Forster's autobiographical novel Maurice starring Hugh Grant and James Wilby. There's also a chance to revisit the Coen Brothers most revered creation the Dude in The Big Lebowski in a special 20th anniversary showing.
