Chow Mo Wan is a man whose painful past has left him wary of love. Now committed only to a lack of commitment, Chow embarks on a series of affairs that promise to fulfil little more than his carnal desire. The majority of Chow's passion is devoted to his Science Fiction novel, a tale of characters travelling on a train to the future in order to reclaim their past. Set in the 1960s and following on from Wong Kar-Wai's passionate but ephemeral ‘In The Mood For Love', 2046 is a ravishing tale of lo find out more...

This touching film is a biography of gay '60s playwright Joe Orton. In his teens Orton was befriended by the older more reserved Kenneth Halliwell and, while the two began a relationship, it's fairly obvious that it wasn't all about sex.

While both longed to become writers, it was Orton who achieved fame, his plays "Loot" and "Wh 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...
