The third of Ford's ‘cavalry' films with Wayne as,the now Lieutenant Colonel, Kirby Yorke, a soldier in charge of putting down the rebellious Apaches, whose land the white man has recently half-inched. Unfortunately this involves crossing over into Mexico, in effect invading a foreign country, something which doesn't give the old imperialist half as many problems as his rather tortured home life. find out more...

Sweeping romantic drama of epic proportions. Fiennes's WWII pilot lays badly burned and in the care of an army nurse. As the unnamed, stiff-upper-lipped "English Patient" begins to recover, memories emerge of a past life as an archaeologist/cartographer in the Sahara, and a passionate affair with a married woman, Katharine. Though Anthony Minghella's adaptation of Michael Ondaatje's novel simplifies, jettisons and changes certain elements of the original story, it remains a rich, complex, entran find out more...

A group of American soldiers go AWOL in search of a stash of hidden gold and find themselves doin' good for a band of refugees desperate to escape from Iraq. 'Three Kings' is an enjoyable if slightly confused movie, you can't help wishing they had gone for either action or satire, rather than attempting to squidge the two genres together. But, nevertheless find out more...
