Film programme revealed at Scarborough's Stephen Joseph Theatre for July

Film programmer Steve Carley said: “With the new Wes Anderson movie and the final outing for Indiana Jones topping the bill, our film programme is hotter than July..

“There’s also a rare chance to see the final performance of Bowie’s greatest creation Ziggy Stardust, a look at the life of the late, great, Tina Turner, a new movie scripted by our old friend Tim Firth, and a fascinating documentary from our new friends at Scarborough Film Festival.

“Throw in French costume drama, Hugh Jackman in Oklahoma!, and three great classics – The Jungle Book, The 39 Steps and The Draughtsman’s Contract – and we have a blisteringly hot line-up.”

Films at the Stephen Joseph Theatre in July:

Chevalier: Based on the true story of composer Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, the illegitimate son of an African slave and a French plantation owner, who rises to heights in French society as a composer before an ill-fated love affair.
