ANGEL-A (2006)
Certification15 Our Rating
A supernatural, fantastical tale of love found in the sleezy and glitzy streets of central Paris. 'Angel–A' is quintessential Luc Besson, ie little in the way of story, but my, the cinematography from Thierry Arbogast does look absolutely stunning.

BLUE VELVET (1986)
Certification18 Our Rating
It's sick, it's weird, it's spooky, but it's compulsive viewing. Forget Brat Packs and Rambo, this is the dark side to America. Beneath the squeaky clean surface lurk neuroses and perversions, degradation and despair. Brilliantly done, this film will haunt you.
