If I Had Legs I'd Kick You | Picturehouse Recommends
In Mary Bronstein’s new film, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, Rose Byrne’s Linda mostly skips the crying and just laughs and screams manically in all directions. The result is a film that’s easy to relish but hard to define; it’s probably best described as a dark comedy.

Watch With Baby

What is the value of art? Does it reside in personal expression? Cultural longevity? Financial worth? These questions fuel Steven Soderbergh’s gloriously entertaining comedy, THE CHRISTOPHERS.
Julian Sklar (McKellen) was once a star of London’s 1960’s and 70’s pop art explosion, but he hasn’t painted in decades and has been broke for years.
His two estranged children, desperate for an inheritance, hire Lori, an art restorer and former forger (Coel), to pose as a prospective assistant in order to access unfinished canvases Julian has buried deep in storage.
A sharp and remarkable tale of creativity, legacy, and avarice.Is your name Christopher? Chris? Christina? Be one of the first five people at your local Picturehouse to watch The Christophers from Fri 15 May with proof of ID, and redeem a free box of regular popcorn. See full terms and conditions here.
