Average Rating:	Brief Encounter [1945] starring: Celia Johnson, Trevor Howard, Stanley Holloway, Joyce Carey, Cyril Raymond directed by: David Lean January 29, 2001		Used Price: Â£0.01
A beautiful love story between two married people who encounter a chance meeting at a railway station. What follows is battle of emotions and morals as they struggle to come to terms with their feelings for each other. In todays society, its very difficult for people to relate to just how frowned upon such an affair would have been back then - such things seem to be common place nowadays. If viewed with this in mind, then Brief Encounter is a truely classic love story, and one of the best British films ever made. >>More Details

Average Rating:	Come On George [1939] starring: George Formby, Patricia Kirkwood, Joss Ambler, Meriel Forbes, Cyril Raymond directed by: Anthony Kimmins September 25, 2000		Used Price: Â£2.99
All George Formby movies follow the same plot: An amiable underdog who overcomes tremendous odds and wins the girl in the end. George trained as a jockey when he was a boy, so it is no wonder he rode like an expert in this film. Lots of fun and laughs (for the 1930's) and a good smattering of George playing his beloved uke. This is one of the best reasons to see George's movies--the music and to watch that fantastic technique used to strum those strings! There is plenty of George's winning charm and that knowing smile which intimates that he is not the naive boy he appears to be. I love it and keep coming back for more. Enjoy the race sequences, the music, and the clumsy love story--all jolly good family fun. >>More Details

Average Rating:	Blue Murder At St. Trinians [1957] starring: Terry-Thomas, George Cole, Joyce Grenfell, Alastair Sim, Sabrina directed by: Frank Launder August 18, 1997		Used Price: Â£2.57
Typical innocent English comedy of the 1950's. It is full of comedy sketches within the film. The stars are idealy suited to the parts they play, and the girls are a mixture of pig tailed horrors, to ravenous long legged beauties. It would be great if the British film industry could get finacial support to produce similar, but up dated good clean fun again. Sit back and enjoy this one. >>More Details

Average Rating:	Waltz Of The Toreadors [1962] starring: Peter Sellers, Dany Robin, Margaret Leighton, John Fraser, Cyril Cusack directed by: John Guillermin October 07, 2002		Used Price: Â£0.94
this film will appeal to any goon show fan for the fact that peter sellers is basically bringing to life his character major bloodnok but with out the terrible explosive asides. As a farce it does not work, but as a pleasing film with hints of sellers considerable talent, especially evident in the general,s painfull love hate discussions with his wife, i would say sit back turn off all allusions and enjoy a film for the sake of itself. >>More Details

Average Rating:	Angels One Five [1952] starring: Jack Hawkins, Michael Denison, Dulcie Gray, John Gregson, Cyril Raymond directed by: George More O'Ferrall September 17, 2001		Used Price: Â£2.89
I must admit that I'm a bit of a sucker for old black and white British war films and this is one of my favourites. Of course, not all are good and judged against today's standards probably few are great. But even without making those comparisons this is a pretty good effort at portraying life on an English airfield during the Battle of Britain and it balances an element of good humour with the seriousness and tragedy of wartime. The characters are well defined by some solid performances (especially from Jack Hawkins as you'd expect in a role like this), and they go about their business with a typically stiff upper lip. What gives the film its strength though is the treatment: most of the action takes place off screen and our connection ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	Gone To Earth [1950] starring: Jennifer Jones, David Farrar, Cyril Cusack, Sybil Thorndike, Edward Chapman directed by: Emeric Pressburger, Michael Powell August 06, 2001		Used Price: Â£1.98
'Gone To Earth' is a sumptuous film done in glorious Technicolor - a story based upon the novel from the great writer from Shropshire Mary Webb. Mary Webb wrote some fabulous stories with some wonderfully colourful eccentric characters. This film is a true and accurate interpretation of the said novel, with great camera work and some great acting. An entertaining film that sees Hugh Griffith in one of his best roles as the all-protecting servant of the womanising Squire, and Cyril Cusack is the kind and gentle Parson who eventually wins his wife back from the red-blooded Mr. Redding. For those of you unfamiliar with the book and film - be prepared for a shock ending! N. B. DVD 'bonus' features includes ... Read More: >>More Details
