The Odyssey is an epic for the ages: gods meddle, monsters loom, and a man fights every force in the universe just to get back to the person he loves. It is grand, gorgeous, and unexpectedly moving — the kind of cinematic event that leaves you walking out into the night feeling slightly larger than when you walked in. With the most screens of anything playing this week, you have no excuse to miss it.

Holly Martins arrives in postwar Vienna to find his old friend dead, a mysterious third man, and a grief-stricken woman he cannot stop thinking about. The Third Man is one of the most atmospheric films ever made — and watching it while you live in the very streets it was shot on is a genuinely spine-tingling experience. One screening only this week, so this is very much a catch-it-or-regret-it moment.
