This week sees the release of a film about Napoleon’s rise and fall framed through his relationship with his wife Josephine, a drama about a man who finds his life turned upside-down when millions of strangers start seeing him in their dreams, and an animated film about a young girl who gets a more direct answer to her wish upon a star than she ever expected!
