Franny and Jane and Christine all have money, Olivia does not. Formerly a teacher, Olivia is now smoking pot and cleaning houses. But her struggle mirrors her friends' in more ways than they'd like to admit. Writer/director Nicole Holofcener comes up trumps again with witty and intelligent dialogue in this film and a human pace which takes time to revel in awkward situations and real life tribulations. Much like in 'Lovely and Amazing', she takes what might seem mundane and somehow makes it univ find out more...

The Hoover family are your typical suburban American demographic; dad's a failed inspirational speaker, grandpa's a coke snorting lay-about, the teenage son has embraced Nietzsche and abstains from the spoken word, the brother-in-law has just missed out on a successful suicide and the mum….well bless her, she really does try. The young daughter, however, is an upbeat bundle of positive energy and when the chance comes to enter the Little Miss Sunshine beauty pageant the whole family embark on a find out more...

A brilliant film the by same director as 'Abigail's Party'. Keith Pratt is the last of the Boy Scouts and with his equally ridiculous wife Candice Marie, they set out on the wilds of a Dorset campsite for their hols, but their health food and knitted way of life don't quite fit in. Darkly funny and eminently quotable, it's a home grown joy of unparalleled quality. find out more...

Ulysses, Delmar and Pete have just escaped a chain gang and are high tailing it across the country to recover a fortune in hidden treasure. There is only one flaw in this otherwise faultless plan......they're clueless. 'O Brother Where Art Thou' is loosely based on Homer's Odyssey (when I say loose I mean like the jumper that you don't know whether to wear, or peg out as a tent) and is a rip-roaring comedy adventure, with all the quirky charm that you expect from the Coen brothers. The sound tra find out more...

A quirky, clever and charming movie from rookie director Anderson, who flies in the face of convention by making the hero of this high school-based comedy a slightly geeky academic who's anything but the all-American kid. Max Fischer is a brilliant but mixed-up scholarship kid at the Rushmore Academy, with a frenzied timetable and an uncanny knack of baffling both students and teachers alike. He attracts the attention of Blume (the superb Bill Murray), a rich, bored, middle-aged parent, apparen find out more...

Taking a satirical swipe at censorship, the fun starts when Kyle and his mates sneak in to see Canadian stars Terence and Philip's new movie, "Asses of Fire", causing their vocabulary to plummet to new depths, which in turn prompts Kyle's mom to start a protest movement against the profane pair. Unfortunately, Mom's one-woman mission leads to full-scale war between the U find out more...

Hip 'n' happening comedy following a bunch of angst-ridden male buddies as they trawl LA's grooviest nightspots in the age old quest for love and the meaning of life or, failing that, a quick shag. A sharp script and top performances from an unknown cast in this deliriously funny feelgood film. find out more...

A Broadway producer, so down on his luck that he has to seduce old ladies for money, figures out that the only way to make real money out of musicals is to make a flop. So when he finds a crazed ex-Nazi with a play titled "Springtime For Hitler" he thinks he's cracked it. A classic. find out more...
