1960s; young scouser Jude crosses the Atlantic and meets upper class Lucy in this musical tale of two star-crossed lovers set against the raging waters of the volatile 60s counterculture movement; race riots, Vietnam, civil rights, protest, music, drugs, dance, art, hippies and psychedelia. Over 30 Beatles songs are woven into the plot together with visual allusions to their films and, with cameos from Bono and Eddie Izzard, this weird, loud and colourful montage will either have you breaking ou

Giuseppe Tornatore directed this grand-scale portrait of life and love over several decades in the small town in Sicily where he was born. We see a number of important historical events through the eyes of young Peppino, watching the fortunes of his town and his family rise and fall. While open to accusations of nostalgia, superficiality and indulgence the film is something of a feast for the senses.
A rambunctious family saga the kind they don't, and probably shouldn't, make any more. find out more...

Tim Robbins wrote, directed and stars in a film that exposes very cleverly the underbelly of US politics. He plays the charismatic Roberts, a right-wing "protest" singer, whose views begin to capture the nation's interest. Sinister machinations abound behind the scenes, and the documentary style works well. Funny too!

Seven people take refuge in the Hotel Splendide as Hitler's Third Reich close in on Paris. One is a movie starlet, one a politician under her spell, two others are scientists with a new invention that might prove deadly in the wrong hands, and slap bang in the middle is a young writer who, courtesy of his fellow guests, will soon find himself risking his life for the sake not only of his country, but the free world itself. Bon Voyage is a delicious old-fashioned comedic adventure, oozing with Ga

Subversive satire with Warren Beatty as the burnt-out, soon-to-be-exposed senator who takes out a contract on his own life. But, after a Paul-on-the-road-to-Damascus-style transformation, he decides to do the unthinkable and tell the truth for a change, whilst trying to win the heart of inner-city militant miss Halle Berry. There's just one obstacle - the hitman who's got a bullet with Bulworth's name on it. Flawed but fun.

Charlie Wilson is a fairly unorthodox congressman, devoted as he is more to having a good time than the machinations of politics, but much to his surprise, and with a sharp shove from a past love, Charlie finds a passion that doesn't involve his own pleasure; helping Afghanistan fight the invading Russians through covert American funding. Considering the present situation in Afghanistan and the light hearted nature of this film Charlie Wilson's War would seem a doomed enterprise but the script i
