Newton-John’s
extraordinary
new and
humorous memoir is a ‘can’t miss’.
Olivia has been one of the most
successful and adored entertainers since

eturning to the big screen for another historical drama, Benedict
Cumberbatch wows as electricity titan Thomas Edison. The film
sees inventors Edison and George Westinghouse – played by Michael
Shannon – battle to win the infamous 19th-century ‘Current War’, the race
to power a nation and light up the world. Perhaps most enjoyable is the
intense on-screen rivalry between the two, as they compete to become
the father of modern technology. The film is poignant and experimental,
and a must-see for fans of clever wit and impressive cinematography.
Also starring Tom Holland, Matthew Macfadyen and Nicholas Hoult as
futurist engineer Nikola Tesla. ★ ★ ★ ★ SW OUT JULY 26MANCHESTERINTERNATIONAL
