The world as a lunatic asylum. Jack Nicholson plays the anarchist determined to challenge the smug system of authority and obedience that rule the roost. The first film by Czech dissident Forman after migrating from Czechoslovakia to the United States, and a superb comment on society!

One of the all-time classics, which surely needs no introduction. A beautifully paced and witty comedy, including Curtis's great parody of Cary Grant's playboy image, and one of the greatest lines of all time.... "Nobody's perfect" when Joe Brown discovers his fiancee is a man.

A man deformed by a rare illness is taken up and patronised by fashionable London society - another freak show for the elephant man to be exhibited in. David Lynch's highly individual style here perfectly complements the film's material. A dark and brooding, yet sympathetic and sentimental film. find out more...

Seldom is a sequel better than the original. In this case the exception proves the rule. The full background to the mafia family epic which is also a metaphor for contemporary America. Won Best Picture at the 1974 Academy Awards. find out more...

A talented young pool whizz-kid being groomed for the big time comes to grief when he falls in love. A downbeat drama with some brilliantly handled and atmospheric pool hall scenes and a low-life romance. Outstanding performances all round. find out more...

Multi-award winning, critically acclaimed, adored by the public, what more can be said of this film about a fading, ageing wrestler coming to terms with the reality that he has no life outside the ring?

Much vaunted tale of mens' greed; sacrificing family, friends and principles to gain profit in the early years of the 20th Century. Danny Day Lewis is superb, as always, as the sinister Daniel Plainview. find out more...
