Our Rating
Godard's hugely influential debut went on to inspire a new wave of French cinema and this is the film which epitomised the iconoclasm of the early Nouvelle Vague. Belmondo is the hip gangster, modelled on Bogart, whose escapades, including shooting a cop, leave him and his girlfriend on the run from both the cops and his enemies. The insolent casual style and cool moods make this the ultimate film noir.

A chance encounter between two students leads to a meeting of like minds and a night of romance wandering the streets of Vienna till dawn. A Franco-American love affair that explores the mental rather than the erotic side of male-female pair-bonding. A must for Hawke or Linklater fans.

"I am dying in time to the splash of their oars - if arms as steady as these had embraced me in life...". This film is Jarman's vision of the life of the Italian painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1573 - 1610). Caravaggio revisits periods of his tempestuous life in a series of deathbed flashbacks and prose-poem voice-overs, focusing particularly on the intense relationship between himself and a couple who model for him in Rome, Lena and Ranuccio. This sexual and violent love triangle eve

Two supremely stylish stories from Hong Kong's hottest new director. In the first, a lonely cop becomes inadvertently involved with a drug-smuggling femme fatale. In the second a lovelorn cop is oblivious to the advances of a besotted waitress...till she takes the bull by the horns. Great fun!

During the German Occupation a young trainee railway guard at a remote country station desperately tries to lose his virginity. He finally succeeds with the station master's wife. Satiric, anti-heroic, humorous and balanced tragi-comedy. Generally considered the finest Czech new wave film.

A moody, atmospheric movie about people trapped by circumstance and their own inability to change. Wide-eyed, streetwise Abby and her hot-tempered lover come, amidst thousands of other croppers from the industrial north, to the fertile landscape of World War I Texas. Once there they are caught up in a diffident, ultimately fatal, triangle with their dying young landowner-boss, whom the boy convinces Abby to marry so that they can have a claim to his fortune. These are the surreal, idyllic, numbe

One of the most stylish and beautiful films ever made and a cult classic that helped to repopularise French cinema over here. A courier obsessed with a beautiful black opera singer enters an underworld of visual splendour and tortuous emotions where love and desire go a long way to realising dreams. Brilliant!

Lost and angry Joel decides to do the same, but as he enters into the process, the memories flashing across his subconscious revitalise what he thought had gone…...love, and so begins a desper

A very strange little number which was released, then immediately withdrawn in 1932 to remain banned for over fifty years. Still pretty disturbing today, despite the triumph of the various aesthetically-challenged "freaks" over their so-called normal tormenters, showing the revenge taken by a group of circus freaks on a beautiful trapeze artist and her strongman lover after they have tried to kill a midget for his fortune.
