Freakscene: The Story of Dinosaur Jr Out now Even if you’re not familiar with US grungers Dinosaur Jr, you’ll know the music they influenced.

Next Door Out now Set in the Prenzlauer Berg, Berlin’s now gentrified urban district, this modest indie meta-drama offers a wink-wink portrait of actorly vanity.

Bold new moves by a great artist. Ruined Scottish National Portrait Gallery, Edinburgh, to 9 Jan Young Scots ponder the national story in a multimedia exhibition that has fun with the “ruins” of the past.
