Controversial (on release) for using words such as 'semen' and 'panties' in order to aid its realism, and perhaps for it's very ambivalent position on the role of the law in achieving justice. Stewart plays a lawyer hired to defend Gazzara from the charge of murdering the man who allegedly raped his wife. Stylish, cool and brilliant! find out more...

When a prominent judge on the circuit tries to convince Arthur to play the corrupt game of high-profile law, the trial becomes about the fate of Arthur's soul as much as about his client's future as a free man. A must-see for Pacino fans (he was nominated for an Academy Award for this role) and cour find out more...

In the shared courtyard of a house in Mali's capital, two interlocking trials take place, one describes the disintegration of a couple's marriage, the other the inept and deceitful policies of the World Bank and the IMF; but as pleas for common sense and decency swirl through the building, the simple necessity of life continues to dominate the communal courtyard.

Fritz Lang's last Hollywood film is a savage indictment of the complacency of American justice. A writer is obsessed with the idea that an entirely innocent man could be sent to the chair - and he sets out to prove his theory when a showgirl is mysteriously found dead. A classic.

In 2002 three skinheads beat a young gay man, Francois Chenu, unconscious and threw his body into a lake, where he drowned.

Adam Wingard tries to re-vamp this horror success with a modicum of inventiveness and a handful of intriguing ideas. Unfortunately, despite the digital camera glitch aesthetic which almost elevates the film above average, it's remains a bog-standard 'found footage' scare fest that relies on making its audience jump. Complete with ludicrous curiosity of a group of mildly irritating teens.
