Steve McQueen: The Man & Le Mans (15) is screened on January 14 at The Dukes and tells the story of a project which the Hollywood star had been dreaming of for a decade. At the time Le Mans went into production, McQueen was one of cinema’s biggest stars but as work on the film got under way, his dream project quickly turned into a nightmare.

A slower pace of life is reflected in The Dukes second documentary of the month – Addicted To Sheep (PG) – on January 16.
