YOUR WEEKLY DIGITAL RIO LISTINGS 🎟️🍿📽️
WHAT’S ON: FRI 11 - THU 17 OCTOBER

NEW THIS WEEK:

TIMESTALKER ⏳💘😂
Genre: Comedy, Romance
Multi-talented Alice Lowe takes the classic rom-com and impales it on a very sharp-edged sword in this genre-defying romp, as insightful as it is entertaining. Hapless heroine Agnes travels through time from repeatedly, falling for the wrong guy, dies a grim death, gets reincarnated before meeting him again. Her only hope is to reaching spiritual enlightenment, but how can she ever wise up when she’s destined to be a fool for love? Some lessons are just too hard to learn in one lifetime…

CONTINUED:

JOKER: FOLIE A DEUX 🤡🎶💥
Genre: Psychological Thriller, Musical
The much-anticipated follow-up to JOKER sees the return of Joaquin Phoenix in his Oscar-winning dual role with co-stars Lady Gaga and Brendan Gleeson. JOKER: FOLIE A DEUX finds Arthur Fleck institutionalised at Arkham awaiting trial for his crimes as Joker. While struggling with his dual identity, Arthur not only stumbles upon true love, but also finds the music that's always been inside him.

THE OUTRUN 🌊🌅❤️‍🩹
Genre: Drama
With an extraordinarily moving performance from Saoirse Ronan, Nora Fingscheidt’s vivid adaptation of Amy Liptrot’s personal memoir of addiction and hope is riveting. Powered by a pounding soundtrack, a kinetic visual style and intricate narrative structure, THE OUTRUN is an emotive and evocative story of healing, connection with the landscape, and letting go.

THE SUBSTANCE 🧪💉😱
Genre: Satirical Body Horror, Drama
Deliriously entertaining and ruthlessly satirical, Coralie Fargeat’s THE SUBSTANCE turns toxic beauty culture inside out with a be-careful-what-you-wish-for fable for the ages. Explosive, provocative and twisted, it is a thrillingly visionary piece of filmmaking.

STRANGE DARLING 🏃‍♀️🖤🔪
Genre: Thriller, Suspense, Horror
In STRANGE DARLING nothing is what it seems when a twisted one-night stand spirals into a game of cat and mouse in which the twists are not just clever, they are outrageous and subversive. The less you know the better but STRANGE DARLING’s meticulously crafted non-linear narrative structure, and killer premise unfolds with maximum intrigue and suspense. Add tour de-force performances from Willa Fitzgerald and Kyle Gallner and the result is the thriller/chiller of the year.
