This hybrid of a film, part back scenes documentary (interviews, rehearsals and backstage footage as Jacko prepared for the never to be done London.shows), part live footage and part video hits is seamlessly put together in a wonderful tribute to the man we would have loved Michael Jackson to have been, a singer without a hint of the narcotic stupor he was rumoured to have fallen into, no destructive revelations from our gutter press and no little boys hanging around backstage. This is Neverland find out more...

A beautiful and evocative film using time-lapse and slow motion photography, choreographed to the eerie music of Philip Glass, to make comparisons between different types of physical motion. The film progresses from purely natural environments to nature as affected by man and, finally, to man's selfmade environment; devoid of nature, in chaos and disarray, but still following the patterns of natural flow as depicted earlier in the film.

The Mighty Floyd invade the archaeological haven of Pompeii and raise psychadelic hell in the ampitheatre! Rock! This 1972 documentary film battles through the ever-present haze of pretentiousness that surrounds the band to give a creative portrayal of what the Floyd are 'about' in their live shows. The music is extended (the magnificent 'Echoes' in particular acts as a behemoth bookend to the show), the setting impressive and the boys are at the top of their game (this is the year before Dark find out more...
