A backwoods rite-of-passage comedy that prefers dumbing down to growing up.
Drama
Shi mian mai fu
A staggeringly beautiful martial romance which dazzles viewers with epic display before piercing them right to the heart.
Being Julia
Hats off to Annette Bening for a remarkable performance in an unremarkable movie.
The Phantom of the Opera
The Phantom of the Opera is there, inside your mind! But, like the owners of that 19th Century Parisian opera house, youll wish he wasnt.
Mibu gishi den
A portrait of a samurai distorted by memory, myth-making and maudlin sentimentality.
A Zed and Two Noughts
While it is hard to look away from a messy accident (especially when a low-flying swan is involved), that does not mean that the spectacle is especially pleasurable. Still, even when Peter Greenaway is not on his best form, his films are always well worth seeing – and 'A Zed and Two Noughts' is certainly an original, and full (too full, even) of ideas.
