This tale of "murder, greed, lust, revenge and seafood" will need no introduction, suffice to say that this is John Cleese doing what he does best - inducing laughter! With the help of veteran director Crichton he has made a film which sparkles with slapstick, farce and wit. find out more...

John Boorman's semi-autobiographical story of London during the Blitz, as seen by the nine-year-old son of an ordinary suburban family. Air raid shelters, shrapnel, and GIs "stealing our women"; a clever blend of tragedy and irony make this a superb film, head and shoulders above average. find out more...

The 1960s and tradition is teetering on the edge, a group of minor public school boys can't hack it any more and rebellion brews. Discovering a cache of automatic weapons, they revolt bloodily against the establishment around them, from the rooftop they engage in a firefight with the teachers and other students, who are armed with the Army Cadet training rifles. A classic of the English cinema... rise up all teens. find out more...

The best film in the history of comic British cinema. A black tale of sex, adultery, murder and social class told with low key irony. Alec Guinness plays all the leading roles, and the delightfully witty and sardonic script is ideal for him. A landmark of British film. find out more...

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. find out more...

Brilliant Monty Python skit on the life of Christ which also takes a few swipes at the sectarian nature of British left wing political parties. Brian never wanted to be a messiah but fame is thrust upon him. Caused a huge outcry when it was released. Still banned in the Republic of Ireland!! find out more...

A slick Dallas oil man sends his agent to a Scottish village to buy it and build a refinery there. But he falls in-love with both place and people, forcing him to question the market driven city lifestyle he leads, its money-oriented values and urban sense of superiority. Totally charming!

You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off! A classic sixties comedy/thriller with Michael Caine and a bunch of Brits blagging a big Italian bank. Lots of style action, laughs and a superbly choreographed car escape sequence. find out more...
