Phyllis Dietrichson is trapped in a loveless marriage to a man who inspires in her nothing but contempt, but rather than leave him Phyllis decides to kill him and collect on the insurance policy she's had set up with the help of her lover, and naive partner in crime, insurance salesman Walter Neff. The only flaws in their plan are the company's reluctance to pay out so much, the diligence of Neff's increasingly suspicious colleague, (and his 'little man'), and the exemplary ruthlessness of Ph find out more...

From Hong Kong's king of action, John Woo, comes a high-tech adventure which has maximum visual thrills and zero credibility, but is none the worse for it. Good guy John Travolta demonstrates his loyalty to the F.B.I in spectacular style by having the face of psycho killer Nicolas Cage transplanted on to his own, in order to save L.A from a huge Special Effect. Cage, meanwhile, in characteristically maniacal mode, has decided to add to the confusion by pilfering Travolta's endearingly twinkly fe

Cahit's life is on the rocks, his wife's dead, his job's collecting empties in a rock bar, his clothes are a mess and his flat is a garbage tip. He meets fellow third generation Turkish-German Sibel, who wishes nothing more than to escape the embraces of her deeply religious family, and who proposes a marriage of convenience. The film charts the long and tortuous relationship of these two self-destructive rock'n'rollers in a 'narcotically vivid love story'. More than just a movie.

Based on Tolstoy's The Death of Ivan Ilyich, this film takes us through the last days in the life of a Hollywood agent, the eponymous Ivan, played beautifully by Danny Huston. After finding out some terrible news Ivan joins the non-stop party that is Hollywood - complete with its drugs, women and celebrities. Witnessing the kind of depraved hedonism that comes with knowing your time is up is disturbing and brilliantly portrayed in this whirlwind of a film. Gritty and real and fantastic.
