Angels and Demons/The Da Vinci Code

Double bill of thrillers based on the best-selling novels of Dan Brown.

In 'Angels and Demons' (2009), Tom Hanks stars as Harvard symbologist and religious expert Robert Langdon, who must work alongside Vittoria (Ayelet Zurer), the beautiful daughter of a murdered Italian physicist, to unravel the clues behind her father's murder and prevent a terrorist act against the Vatican by resurgents of an ancient secret brotherhood known as the Illuminati, the most powerful underground organisation in history.

In 'The Da Vinci Code' (2006) Langdon (Hanks) is summoned to the Louvre by the French version of the FBI, led by Captain Bezu Fache (Jean Reno), and soon discovers that he is the prime suspect for the murder of a historian he had been scheduled to meet with.

Assisted by a French cryptographer and government agent named Sophie (Audrey Tautou), Langdon is challenged to decipher a chain of cryptic codes and puzzles, all the while trying to stay ahead of Fache's lawmen in a chase through the Louvre, out into the Parisian cityscape, and finally across the channel to England.

Can Langdon and Sophie decipher the nature of a secret dating back to Leonardo Da Vinci, and even earlier, before those responsible for the historian's murder add them to their hit list?
