Writer William Peter Blatty always griped that, in excising twenty minutes from The Exorcist, Friedkin removed its moral centre and obscured its theological message. To Blatty's horror, some people thought the Devil won. Friedkin has reinstated eleven minutes of footage, and the re-editing job is done so lovingly that fans are unlikely to feel cynically exploited. Even so, Friedkin's cuts have mostly been vindicated but­ it now feels too long, while the infamous 'spider walk' scene merely adds a cheap and redundant shock.

James Norton (Happy Valley, Grantchester) stars in the theatrical event as visionary director Ivo van Hove (A View from the Bridge) stages the English language premiere of A Little Life. Filmed live at the Savoy Theatre, London, during its West End run, this record-breaking and ‘beautifully acted’ production of the million-copy bestseller by Hanya Yanagihara comes to the big screen for a limited time only.

The critically acclaimed five-star play also stars Luke Thompson (Bridgerton), Omari Douglas (It’s A Sin), Zach Wyatt (The Witcher), Elliot Cowan (The Crown), Zubin Varla (Tammy Faye), Nathalie Armin (Force Majeure) and Emilio Doorgasingh (Best of Enemies).

A Little Life follows four college friends in New York City: aspiring actor Willem, successful architect Malcolm, struggling artist JB, and prodigious lawyer Jude. As ambition, addiction, and pride threaten to pull the group apart, they always find themselves bound by their love for Jude and the mysteries of his past. But when those secrets come to light, they finally learn that to know Jude St Francis is to understand the limitless potential of love in the face of life.

A remarkable end to a remarkable series of films, the journey of Frodo, Sam and Gollum is the pièce de résistance of the trilogy. The tension-filled journey forces both Gollum and Sam to show their true colours as Frodo suffers under the burden of the ring. All around is war as Aragorn fights to reclaim what is rightfully his. Jackson's vision is awesome. The Return of the King is some kind of beautiful, some kind of masterpiece. Unmissable.

• Cast: Greta Lee, Teo Yoo, John Magaro, Moon Seung-ah

A budding childhood romance between Nora and Hae Sung, classmates at a primary school in Seoul, ends abruptly when Nora’s family emigrates to Canada. Twelve years later, Nora - now a playwriting student in New York - notices that Hae Sung’s been searching social media for her. They reconnect online and even imagine a reunion. But another dozen years pass before they finally meet during his visit to New York. Although their lives have changed dramatically, they remain bound by a wistful connection.

An aching, deeply romantic debut feature from playwright Celine Song, Past Lives is a love story told across three moments in time. Song’s artful aesthetic and profound character writing, and the spellbinding performances she draws from Greta Lee, Teo Yoo and John Magaro (whose fates intertwine) explore love, identity, and ‘In Yun’, a Korean notion of fate stemming from two people’s connection in a past life.

There's plenty of quality in 'Stop Making Sense', the film of Talking Heads' 1984 stage show: the songs, the band's original musicians enjoying themselves tremendously and Demme, who has a radar-like eye for the little smiles and exchanges between band members. But the element of 'Stop Making Sense' that arrests the attention from beginning to end and makes this film unforgettable is the scintillating, mesmeric David Byrne.
