A wonderful portrait of Ian Dury - he the polio crippled lyricist and front man for punk icons The Blockheads and a self-pitying, class conscious, angry, supremely talented loud mouth - struggling to relate to his pre-teen son and familial duties.
'Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll' is a top notch drama about a real life person, warts, foul language and all, and you neither need to love his music, punk generally nor, indeed, any form of music to appreciate this gem of a film. find out more...

From the group that said motherf**k the po-lice - the backstory to NWA (Niggas With Attitude). The casting here is superb; all the way from Eazy-E to Dr Dre and with Ice Cube's own son who is the spitting image of his dad, this is a thrill-fest for fans of West Side rap music. Definitely one to get your head nodding. Turn up the bass, yo. 

Theatrical and Director's cut available.

An artful documentary about the life of Daniel Johnson, singer/songwriter, artist, cartoonist and general artistic genius, but a man sadly afflicted with a severe mental illness that makes him totally self-delusional and an occasional danger to both himself and others. Daniel, raised in a Christian fundamentalist family in deepest West Virginia, amongst many of his fantasies, sees Devils everywhere, and with his overblown self-importance, not helped by his legions of admirers, vying with his low find out more...

On December 7 1995, Jean-Dominique Bauby was the French editor-in-chief of fashion magazine Elle. Three weeks later, after a massive stroke, Bauby awakes from a coma, an active mind trapped inside a dead body, his only contact and communication with the world the ability to blink his left eyelid. Adapted from Bauby's memoirs, "The Diving Bell And The Butterfly" is an extraordinary flight of the imagination rooted firmly in the realities of the narrator's new world. Beautifully filmed you are ove find out more...

Based on the true story of unemployed amateur cyclist, Graeme Obree, who broke the world One Hour record on a bike of his own revolutionary design, constructed out of scrap metal and old washing machine parts. Simply as a study of courage, endurance and ingenuity, Obree's story is remarkable enough, but it's also the tale of a man haunted by depression and a fierce mistrust of authority, whose struggle to overcome his own demons was at least as courageous as his exploits on the track. find out more...

A revealing documentary, comprising archive footage of his life and interviews with friends, family and fellow musicians, about the boarding-school boy who grew up abroad, did the hippy art-school thing, embraced Ladbroke Grove's '70s squat scene, cut his hair, fronted The 101ers and The Clash, appeared in a bunch of hip movies and then became a standard-bearer for world music. find out more...

The legend that is Dewey Cox, a rock and roll god whose name is uttered in the same breath as Buddy Holly and Johnny Cash, a man who embraced hedonism more than most of his peers, but at heart was simple and kind. Idolised for his music and nearly destroyed by the many temptations such adulation brought, this is the myth, a subtle, beautifully performed, lushly visualised, cleverly scripted lampoon of every poe-faced, rose-tinted Oscar hungry biopic that's graced our screens over the last couple find out more...
