Julian is boyish, sensual, speaks 5/6 languages, and is a gigolo. But when a client is found murdered, and her missing jewels turn up in his car, he realises he's been framed. Part thriller, part American malaise and very stylish - Gere's suits, the soundtrack and camera work. Entertaining.

Unashamedly unsophisticated coming-of-age comedy with a barrage of bodily-embarrassment jokes. Four high school friends, already battling raging testosterone levels, are outraged and awestruck when a smug classmate gets lucky with a real live girl. Making a pact, the four vow to lose their virginity by prom night, no mean feat given the guys' spectacular lack of familiarity with charm, finesse and the workings of the human body. So, a simple plot, splendidly executed by the largely unknown youn

Harvey Pekar lives the life most of us dream of avoiding, a filing clerk by day, a man at odds with, and lost in, the world he inhabits the other sixteen hours. Harvey begins to write down his disgruntled observations and with the help of equally cantankerous illustrator, Harry Crumb, ‘American Splendor' is born. This movie of the man's life is an inspired mixture of animation, documentary and dramatisation, with Paul Giamatti finally getting a role worth his talent. Funny, sad, sharp and hip to

This fast-paced and beautifully constructed film debut by Mexican director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu has won critical acclaim all over the world. Weaving the stories of the three victims of a brutal car crash which we witness in the first scene, the film takes you through three very separate worlds that all come together on Mexico's mean streets. From the world of a high-class supermodel to the depths of despair felt by an exiled ex-assassin, Amores Perros is a real achievement in filmmaking.

Wildly unusual costume tale of a Kabuki female impersonator who avenges his parents' suicides by courting (in female guise) their tormentors. His elaborate revenge is superbly choreographed by director Ichikawa, and the central performance of Hasegawa (in TWO roles!) is beyond remarkable.
