Slapstick tale of organised crime and family conflict amongst three generations of gypsies, from the former Yugoslavia. Set on the banks of the Danube, the riotous action centres on the old-style octagenarian gangsters, their crooked and conniving offspring, and the youngest generation, whose touching romanticism bring a touch of whimsy to the proceedings. A twisty turny farce with a cruel humour and moments of inspired surrealism. find out more...

A dazzlingly visual and atmospheric piece of cinema. The location is futuristic France with Doomsday looming. The setting is a butcher's shop run by a crazed cannibal. Add some peculiar tenants, the barbarous landlord's love-struck daughter, and some vegetarian freedom fighters, and you have a devilishly original, stylish black comedy. find out more...

Brilliant black comedy with Cusack as a hitman who goes home for his high school reunion. While he's there he's got one last job to do, and a long lost love to win back, but first he's got to shake off a rival, "The Grocer" (Aykroyd), who's hellbent on recruiting him to an "assassin's union"! Superb. find out more...

Cut off from the world by war, a small psychiatric hospital finds life relatively unchanged, that is until the staff desert it and the patients find themselves their own keepers. House of Fools is at times life affirmingly crazy and touchingly poignant. Though easy to draw comparisons with ‘One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest' this is not a story about the inadvertent fascism of an institutional ‘caring' beaurocracy but the dangers of an encroaching and largely ambivalent outside worl find out more...

A young Irish family move to the bubbling cauldron of humanity that is New York, but though full of wonderment and excited anticipation of their new home, they must first overcome the tragedy that drew them away from Ireland and which still haunts them. Directed by the man responsible for My Left Foot and In The Name Of The Father, In America is another remarkable drama which tugs at about every emotional heart string available while deftly avoiding the all too common trait of manipulative, tear find out more...

Christopher McCandless is a bright, likable, precociously perceptive, young middle-class college graduate, who, tortured by his dysfunctional childhood, is determined to find a simpler, purer and more harmonious life. He gives away all that he has and sets out across North America, his ultimate goal the perfect isolation of the Alaskan wilderness. Based on real events 'Into The Wild' is beautifully judged, paced and performed; an epic, gloriously visualised road trip and also a moving and though find out more...
