New films from Fri 18 September

See what's on, including Bad Apples, The Cycle of Love, Bel, Terminator 2: Judgement Day and more

There's a whole range of delicious choices at DCA Cinema this week, from festival hits and moving true stories to restored classics and theatre on screen.

The ever-versatile Saoirse Ronan stars as a teacher who finds herself in hot water over a problem student in the devilish comedy-thriller Bad Apples.

Discover how a 23-year old street artist rode his bicycle 6000 miles across continents in 1973 to find his sweetheart in crowd-pleasing documentary The Cycle of Love, and join us for a deeply emotional tribute to the late singer-songwriter Beldina Odenyo, aka Heir of the Cursed, in the raw and vital Bel.

James Cameron's Terminator 2: Judgement Day is back for its 35th anniversary, joined by Claude Chabrol's Hitchcockian 1969 thriller La Femme infidèle, and Dundead presents Castration Movie iii by pioneering queer filmmaker Louise Weard.

Plus, dive into Jarvis' archives and re-live the 2025 tour magic with Pulp: What Do You Do for an Encore?, NT Live returns with The Misanthrope starringSandra Oh, breakout hit Coyote vs. Acme breaks in, celebrate Twenty Years of the Met in Cinemas, and WW2 drama Pressure continues.
