Neil Jordan has succeeded in creating a joyous creature in ‘Kitten

Beautifully made romance, told in flashback as the recently deceased Streep's incredulous children sort out her personal belongings. Eastwood is mesmerising as Robert, who brings a second chance of happiness to bored but married housewife Francesca in the summer of 1965. Tragically touching.

Michael Peterson was born in 1952 into a well off Luton family, "As a boy he was a lovely lad. He was obviously bright and always good with children.

Three young Hong Kong hustlers move to Saigon to try and profit, smuggling penicillin and gold, from the war, but their friendship is tested to the limits through greed, betrayal and lust, amid the horrors of a war-torn Vietnam. Comparable to the 'Deer Hunter', this violent epic is the most ambitiously personal and political of John Woo's films, but still comes packed with guns, explosives and balletic action.

This dramatic history of Chicago's Chess Records has a superb soundtrack(though it consists almost entirely of covers) and its insights into the relationship between white money making businessmen and poor black talent back in the stifling '50s more than makes up for its overwrought melodrama, historic inaccuracies and poor script.

Many people consider this to be superior to Scorsese's recent remake; Mitchum is superb as the sadist, newly released from jail and determined to exact a hideous revenge on the prosecutor (Peck) that sent him down. This aroused enormous controversy when first released in Britain in 1963.
