60s folk music was big business and ‘The Folksmen', ‘The New Main Street Singers' and ‘Mitch and Mickey' were at the top of the heap. Forty years later and in honour of their recently deceased manager, these musical icons decide to reform and put on a show at New York's town hall. Just like Best in Show, Spinal Tap and Waiting for Guffman, Christopher Guest has crafted an acutely observed mockumentary, sublimely eccentric, gently satirical and with numerous one liners that are delivered with an find out more...

1960s; young scouser Jude crosses the Atlantic and meets upper class Lucy in this musical tale of two star-crossed lovers set against the raging waters of the volatile 60s counterculture movement; race riots, Vietnam, civil rights, protest, music, drugs, dance, art, hippies and psychedelia. Over 30 Beatles songs are woven into the plot together with visual allusions to their films and, with cameos from Bono and Eddie Izzard, this weird, loud and colourful montage will either have you breaking ou find out more...

Eight-year-old Zachary has, so far, enjoyed life as his father's favourite son, as the possessor of a gift for healing and as younger sibling to a tearaway, a jock and a bookworm, but this relatively idyllic childhood in Québec is cast under the shadow of his dad's suspicions when he is discovered wearing a dress. Seven years on it's 1975 and Zac is in thrall to Ziggy Stardust and his cousin's boyfriend, a confusing situation for him, made more complicated by a history of trying to satisfy his d find out more...

It’s 1961 in Greenwich Village and Llewyn Davis is at a crossroads. Guitar in tow, huddled against the unforgiving New York winter, he is struggling to make it as a musician against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, some of them of his own making.

In the mid-60s offshore beaming of 'pop' music to the UK threatened the cultural domination of the arch-conservative BBC and this fictitious story is based round one of those boats and the DJs on board. The soundtrack opportunities are relatively wasted and the 'liberal' mix of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll is cliched, but, nevertheless, and not unlike other Richard Curtis material, the movie has been remarkably popular with, and very much liked, by the general public. 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...
