Madonna doesn't try to steal the show and consequently this turns out to be an excellent film. In 1943, with the males away fighting, The All American Girls' Professional Baseball League was formed to keep the National Baseball League running. Hanks is the real star as the cynical manager/coach who learns to love his team. A comic and touching story highlighting many of the contradictions that working women face. High slush factor. find out more...

This latest offering from John Duigan ("Sirens", "Flirting") is arguably his most substantial effort to date. A sardonic study of the friendship between an 11-year-old girl and a handyman (Sam Rockwell) more than twice her age, the film skilfully avoids degenerating into low-budget Lolita-ism. Indeed, Mischa Barton's emotionally starved schoolgirl, Devon, seems to be the only character oblivious to Rockwell's not unconsiderable physical attractions. An intelligent, engaging insight into small to find out more...

After the attack, a theatre troupe headed to Laramie to work on a play based on the real-life reactions of the townspeople and those involved. The film is a re-e find out more...

One of Hollywood's greatest love stories with Streisand and Redford making a dashing, if unlikely couple. As college sweethearts they defy their all too obvious differences to be together, but, as the marriage progresses, Redford's easy success as a writer threatens to destroy the idyllic union. One of the most referenced final moments in film (see Sex and the City). A classic romance. find out more...

Superb adaptation of Graham Swift's novel about growing up in the poverty stricken, primitive, rural Fenland. Irons is peerless as the ageing and troubled history teacher, disillusioned as his students with dry facts and figures, taking them on a field trip though his personal history re-exploring his marriage to his childhood love and the often tragic experiences that befell them. Brilliant and moving. find out more...
