Ron Howard | USA | UK | France | 2008 | 122′

Michael Sheen and Frank Langella recreate the chemistry of their acclaimed West End and Broadway roles as Frost and Nixon. For three years after being forced from office, Nixon remained silent. But in summer 1977, the steely, cunning former commander-in-chief agreed to sit for one all-inclusive interview. He surprised everyone in selecting Frost as his televised confessor, intending to outfox the breezy British showman and secure a place in the hearts and minds of Americans. What actually unfolds is an unexpectedly candid and revealing interview in which young journo Frost teases a Watergate confession out of the ex-President.

Mae Michael Sheen a Frank Langella yn ail‑greu hud eu rolau West End a Broadway cymeradwyedig fel Frost a Nixon. Am dair blynedd ar ôl cael ei wthio o’i swydd, arhosodd Nixon yn dawel. Ond yn ystod haf 1977, cytunodd y cyn pencadlywydd craff roi un cyfweliad cynhwysol. Er syndod mawr i lawer, dewisodd Frost, fel ei gyffeswr teledu, gyda’r bwriad o drechu’r Prydeiniwr bywiog a diogelu lle yng nghalonnau a meddyliau Americaniaid. Yn hytrach, yr hyn wnaeth gymryd lle mewn gwirionedd oedd cyfweliad annisgwyl o agored a didwyll ble mae Frost y newyddiadurwr ifanc yn denu cyffesiad Watergate o’r cyn-Lywydd.

(12A) | Romania | 2008 | 131’ | Cast | Awards | Subtitles

A collection of five wry and amusing urban myths that circulated under Ceausescu’s paranoid regime, the period he called ‘The Golden Age of the Romanian People’. Full of bleak humour, these stories poke fun at the bizarre lengths people had to go to survive. From the director of 4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days, this has a similar blend of the extraordinary just beneath the surface of the everyday. Inevitably, in a country where food is short, finding enough to eat is a recurring theme. One tense tale tells of a family’s attempt to slaughter a pig in their flat without the neighbour’s hearing. Simply told with well-drawn characters these well-judged stories have an easy charm and a telling take on what makes people tick.

Gosodwyd y ffilm hon yn Rwmania, adeg cyfundrefn Ceausescu. Yn llawn hiwmor noeth, mae’r ffilm yn gasgliad o straeon sy’n gwneud sbort ar yr hyn y bydd pobl yn barod i wneud er mwyn goroesi.

“Absurd, hilarious, poignant and curiously affectionate” Wendy Ide, The Times

Stephen Daldry | USA | Germany | 2008 | TBC’

From the director of Billy Elliot and The Hours, this haunting postwar romance, based on the best-selling novel by German author Bernhard Schlink, stars Kate Winslet and Ralph Fiennes and is hotly tipped as a contender for an Oscar. Set in postwar Germany, it tells the story of a man whose life has been shaped by an illicit affair with a passionate, elusive older woman during his youth. Now a young lawyer involved in a war crimes trial, he is horrified to find his former lover among the defendants.

O gyfarwyddwr Billy Elliot a The Hours, mae’r rhamant ôl-rhyfel hon, wedi ei seilio ar nofel lwyddiannus yr awdur Almaenig Bernhard Schlink, yn cynnwys y sêr Kate Winslet a Ralph Fiennes, ac mae eisoes yn cael ei ffafrio ar gyfer ennill Oscar. Wedi ei gosod yn yr Almaen yn y cyfnod wedi’r rhyfel, mae’n adrodd stori am fywyd dyn a ffurfiwyd gan berthynas â gwraig nwydus, hŷn, pan oedd yn ifanc. Nawr yn gyfreithiwr mewn prawf troseddau’r rhyfel, mae’n darganfod ei gyn-gariad ymhlith y diffynyddion.
