This broad range of films represents and celebrates today’s movie-going experience, and champions the best of cinema today, say the publishers.

“With such a busy entertainment landscape it is ShortList’s role to curate the best content out there for readers, as well as celebrate new launches and shows we think are right for our audience.”
“Expanding on from Film Club, TV Club aims to bring the best of the small screen to the big screen and create money-can’t-buy experiences for our readers.”
