You Can See Everything

Queen's Film Theatre · South Belfast · Film
Thirty-four days before she’s sent to prison, notorious Silicon Valley founder Elizabeth Holmes invites a skeptical film crew to document her every move. Filmed over the course of three years, the film captures Holmes as she continues to vehemently maintain her innocence, and evolves into something far stranger, more intimate, and more unpredictable than a conventional documentary. Beginning in 2023, in the 34 days leading up to disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes’ prison sentence, filmmaker and comedian Nathan Fielder moves into Holmes’ home with her husband, Billy Evans, and their children.

I Play Rocky

Queen's Film Theatre · South Belfast · Film
Featuring a career-making performance from Anthony Ippolito, Peter Farrelly vividly recreates the story of how an unknown named Sylvester Stallone got Rocky produced — and became a superstar. Sylvester (Ippolito) dreams of being an actor, but he grew up poor, shuttled from home to home, and at one point lived on the street. Now in his twenties, the closest he's come to the big screen is acting in a porno and working as an usher. Then he sees Muhammad Ali fight Chuck Wepner, and inspiration hits: in a few fevered days, he writes a screenplay about an underdog boxer who goes the distance. Studio executives love it — but they balk at Sylvester’s stipulation that he play the hero. The production of this ambitious indie film will prove more arduous than anyone could have imagined. Ippolito is supported by a dream cast that includes Tracy Letts, Stephan James, and Oscar nominee Matt Dillon.
