This semi-autobiographical film, the fourth instalment in the saga of Antoine Doinel, concentrates on his early married life during which time he becomes a writer, a father and a philanderer. A humourous and ironic account of a failing middle-class marriage, a subject that Truffaut obviously knew rather well.

The theme for these three shorts is desire – a comfortable mode for Wong Kar-Wai whose ‘The Hand' offers a miniature version of his swooningly gorgeous, chronologically choppy impressionism; an apprentice tailor is bowled over by Gong Li's imperious 60s courtesan to whom, despite a reversal of fortune, he remains a devoted supplicant for decades. Set in 1955 Soderbergh's chamber piece ‘Equilibrium' is the lightest and wittiest of the three; Robert Downey Jr is a neurotic ad exec with recurring d

A slow, lyrical series of vignettes, often banal, but always poetic, about life one hot summer in a decaying Deep South (North Carolina) small town for a tight-knit, predominately black, group of impoverished semi-rural children on the cusp of adolescence and responsibility. The plot, for what it matters; a child's game goes astray and one is accidentally killed, trapping the children in a lie that slowly pulls them apart. George is the handicapped (his skull hasn't fused) introspective, but inw

The well-known Moroccan dissident Mehdi Ben Barka was to be the film's 'historical advisor', but the whole film project was an elaborat

Valerie Solanas was a nutter cum radical feminist who tried to hang around with the Warhol crowd, became the sole member of SCUM, the Society for Cutting Up Men, and became famous for more than 15 minutes for firing the bullets from which Andy Warhol never recovered. Right on sister, that's art. This is a fab little pic from the Killer Films troupe. Laced with psychedelia, trimmed with gritty realism, first person narratives and cameos, this is a must watch if only for Taylor's brilliant protray
