Ferreri's outrageous and satirical farce, with four bored rich and repressed men hellbent on killing themselves in a protracted orgy of eating and sex. Life bores them, and maybe death will provide a release. Shades of Sade and an obvious influence on Greenaway. Both funny and distasteful. Top!

Mike Leigh serves up another delicious slice of frighteningly real British family life. Alison Steadman is outstanding as the suburban mother of teenage twin daughters, one a plumber, the other a heavily depressed and anti-social bulimic. Stark, hilarious, tragic but ultimately uplifting. Brilliant British film making.

When THE fast food chain issued a libel action against activists Helen Steel and Dave Morris in 1990, demanding an apology for allegations they had made in a leaflet, the corporate giant didn't expect the pair to not only refuse to apologise, but to actually invite McBully to bring it on. Absolutely nobody expected it to take 15 years and a victory for the pair at the European Court of Human Rights for the case to come to an end. Here the whole story is told with the requisite amount of humour

Toula's just hit thirty and there's no man in sight, not a problem you might think for a modern woman, but Toula belongs to a traditional Greek family and she's still very much embroiled in their embrace. Ian is the tall not so dark stranger who transforms her world and while the infatuated couple prepare for life together her eccentric family move in to add some traditional chaos. "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" is a delightful romantic comedy, light, fluffy and full of farce. Pure escapism.
