A factionalised account of how the 1919 baseball world series was thrown by the heavily favoured Chicago White Sox. They made a deal with gangsters to get back at their stingy boss and make a packet on the side. This was a scandal that shocked a nation and is an excellent film.

LAWRENCE OF ARABIA (1962)
CertificationPG Our Rating
A truly epic epic and winner of 7 Academy Awards. Lawrence serves British colonial interests during the First World War by uniting the Arabs against the fast collapsing Ottoman Empire. Stupendous cinemascope drama with a cast of thousands and some of cinema's most famous shots; Sheik Ali's emergence from the desert haze and the storming of Aquaba for example. This is the director's cut, a more coherent version than the original cinema release.
