By the director of the brilliant low-budget triumph Clerks. Brodie and T.S. are your archetypal wasters, so when they're dumped by their fed-up girlfriends, they retreat to the all too familiar comfort of the local mall to do... well not very much really. Rude, crude and side-splittingly funny.

Revered Brit film director Terence Davies paints a picture of Liverpool life from his childhood days to the modern in this poetic docu-essay memoir. Heavy on poetry and classical music, heavily against the Church and the monarchy, full of newsreel and documentary footage, this is an awesome tribute to a city that he loves.

On November 13th 1990 the small New Zealand town of Aramoana was taken hostage by one of its own residents, the angry and embittered David Gray, a socially and emotionally crippled man who felt ostracized and jeered at by those he lived amongst. On that fateful day Gray murdered 13 men, women and children, and was prevented from further slaughter only by the dogged, but ill-prepared, local police. "Out Of The Blue" is a harrowing and powerful observation of events, stunningly filmed with a gritt

1994, 800,000 killed in 100 days, a Catholic priest and an idealistic young English teacher are caught, both literally and morally, in the midst of the horror. How can they help the thousands of refugees who flee to their school, where the pathetic (Belgian) UN troops are billetted, in the hope of surviving the bloodthirsty Hutu mobs engaged in the wholesale massacre of the Tutsi minority? Like Hotel Rwanda this is a fully engaging and emotionally disturbing account of the horrors that humans ca

A phenomenal flop, until some bright spark declared it to be a camp classic, a la Rocky Horror. Naomi Malone wants to be a star, so much so that she's prepared to bide her time writhing naked in the sweaty faces of fat, leering businessmen. All in the name of art, of course. A truly risible film.

The Class of 92, a cinematic documentary detailing the rise to prominence and global sporting superstardom of six supremely talented young Manchester United footballers (David Beckham, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Phil and Gary Neville). The film covers the period 1992-1999, culminating in Manchester United's European Cup triumph, and will dramatically interweave and mirror the highs and lows of its football odyssey with the immense social and cultural changes taking place in Britain find out more...

An artful documentary about the life of Daniel Johnson, singer/songwriter, artist, cartoonist and general artistic genius, but a man sadly afflicted with a severe mental illness that makes him totally self-delusional and an occasional danger to both himself and others. Daniel, raised in a Christian fundamentalist family in deepest West Virginia, amongst many of his fantasies, sees Devils everywhere, and with his overblown self-importance, not helped by his legions of admirers, vying with his low

On December 7 1995, Jean-Dominique Bauby was the French editor-in-chief of fashion magazine Elle. Three weeks later, after a massive stroke, Bauby awakes from a coma, an active mind trapped inside a dead body, his only contact and communication with the world the ability to blink his left eyelid. Adapted from Bauby's memoirs, "The Diving Bell And The Butterfly" is an extraordinary flight of the imagination rooted firmly in the realities of the narrator's new world. Beautifully filmed you are ove

Improbably based round the true story of how a group of khatueys, effiminate men, came to represent the province of Lampang at volleyball and how, despite official disapproval, they proceeded to win the national inter-provincial championship. Hilariously funny, for once high camp isn't annoying, the quarrelling/making up, made up lads(?), despite broken fingernails and personal trauma, emerge triumphant. This film never has a bad moment and will leave you up-lifted.
