March 10th is here, and with it comes a duo of new releases that are sure to entertain you.
Dutch director Paul Verhoeven (RoboCop, Basic Instinct, Total Recall) is back after a long hiatus with his Oscar-nominated thriller Elle starring Isabelle Huppert – and it’s bound to get people talk. And ballet bad boy Sergei Polunin also makes a return in the documentary Dancer.
Check out our review round up for these films below and see them at the IFI from the 10th of March.
