WIN: one of 10 double in-season passes to see The Disappearance of Alice Creed

In THE DISAPPEARANCE OF ALICE CREED, two ex-cons kidnap a young woman and plan to make a mint on the ransom. Their hostage is Alice Creed (Gemma Arterton), daughter of a rich businessman, chosen by Danny and Vic as their passport to a better life. Terrified and immobile at first, it soon becomes clear that Alice isn't about to let her captors use her as capital without a fight. As determined to escape as Vic and Danny are to succeed, Alice enters into a battle of wills which strains the already fractious relationship between the two men. As the deadline for the exchange draws nearer, all three are brought close to breaking point, with Vic and Danny's foolproof plan descending into a desperate struggle for survival. A taut, emotionally intense thriller, the debut feature from writer/director J Blakeson eschews genre convention, generating tension from the sexual and psychological ties that bind captive to captors. Starring Eddie Marsan (Sherlock Holmes, Happy Go-Lucky), Gemma Arterton (Prince of Persia, Quantum of Solace), Martin Compston (The Damned United)
Only at the Movies September 9.

Gemma Arterton  won the part of of Agent Fields over 1500 other applicants. The full name of her Miss Fields character is never revealed in the film and is only ever referred to as "Fields". Her full name is given in the film's closing credits and publicity documents as "Strawberry Fields," named after a character in The Beatles-inspired musical Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1978). She has red hair, like strawberries. Strawberry Fields can be considered a typical Ian Fleming-esque moniker. Arterton has reportedly based her character on a number of 1960s Bond Girls, particularly Pussy Galore and Tracy di Vicenzo, on whose hairstyle Arterton based Fields' hair. She's the fifth major redheaded Bond Girl in the series, the first 4 being Fiona Volpe (Luciana Paluzzi) in Thunderball (1965); Tiffany Case (Jill St. John) in Diamonds Are Forever (1971); Helga Brandt (Karin Dor) in You Only Live Twice (1967); and Tracy di Vicenzo in On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969).
