22.01.2022 Christmas is coming and the mad rush to get the shopping done is on! Take some time out from the madness and enjoy a movie on Mary. Thanks to STUDIOCANAL we've got 5 double passes to give away to The Program (2015 film) -- based on David Walsh's book Seven Deadly Sins: My Pursuit of Lance Armstrong. From Academy Award nominated director Stephen Frears, comes the true story of the meteoric rise and fall of one of the most celebrated and controversial men in recent history, wor...ld renowned Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong. The Program is in cinemas from November 26. Simply be one of the first five people to comment below and tell us what your favourite biography is and why to win a ticket! Trailer: https://youtu.be/TmAJ8rq9T7s When Lance Armstrong fought back from life-threatening cancer to win the 1999 Tour de France, it seemed almost too good to be true. It was. Journalist David Walsh was one of a small group who was prepared to raise awkward questions about Armstrongs seemingly superhuman feats. And so began a 13-year battle to reveal the truth that finally ended in October 2012 when the cyclist was stripped of his seven Tour victories for using performance enhancing drugs and banned from the sport for life. Based on the award winning book Seven Deadly Sins by David Walsh, and featuring a stellar cast including Ben Foster (KILL YOUR DARLINGS), Chris ODowd (BRIDESMAIDS), Dustin Hoffman (RAIN MAN), and Jesse Plemons (BREAKING BAD), this tense thriller looks at how one of the greatest deceptions in the modern era was uncovered, and how a few brave people fought to save a sport they loved from corruption.
