We're in post Restoration England in 1694, and at a country estate filled with condescending, witty, superficial creatures dressed in heavy satins and lace, with chalk dusted cheeks, painted cupid lips and beauty spots, and wearing magnificent high wigs with cascading curls down to the waist...and that's just the men.

In their midst is Mr. Neville (Anthony Higgins), a talented, successful and arrogant artist whose father, we learn later, was a tenant farmer. He is engaged by the lady of the estate, Mrs. Herbert (Janet Suzman) to draw 12 views of the estate as a present for her clod of a husband, who will be away on business for the next 15 days. Mr. Neville declines. The unhappily married Mrs. Herbert increases his fee. Mr. Neville ... Read More:

Angel Of Vengeance [1981]


starring: Zoë Lund, Albert Sinkys, Darlene Stuto, Helen McGara, Nike Zachmanoglou
directed by: Abel Ferrara

Absolutely brilliant. This is an excellent piece of grunge, grindhouse cinema. Probably one of the few movies that rate at the high end of grindhouse cinema if you can believe that. It's dark, it's violent and, full of tough material and just like Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill, you're with the main character all the way through. Despite the fact that what she does throuhgout it is morally questionable, you're still with her 100% of the way. You find yourself rooting for her all the time, and how that is, is down to good writting and directign. This is one of the best additions to Abel Ferrara's ouvre along with King of New York and Bad Leiutenant and one of my favourites of his, The Driller Killer. Infact due to the dark nature of this film, it wouldn't be highly inappropriate ... Read More:

VHS : Lisztomania [1975]

Lisztomania [1975]


starring: Roger Daltrey, Sara Kestelman, Paul Nicholas, Ringo Starr, Rick Wakeman
directed by: Ken Russell
August 13, 1990
Best Selling > VHS > World Cinema

As a film, this is totally brilliant. But why did Rick Wakeman, a professional musician and composer, choose to drag the beautiful music of Wagner and Liszt into a teenybopper cesspit?

Ken Russell has captured well the relationship between the two composers but has reinforced the negative attitudes of Wagner's music against Liszt's almost-saintly masterpieces. If you are a fan of Liszt and/or Wagner, the film is worth watching for Russell's incredible talent and interpretation of 19th century show-biz ethos.

Having just seen 'In Bruges' I was reminded of this film I saw over fifteen years ago. It has a European feel to it, even though it is set in New York (I think ?). It has hit men, and is a very dark quirky film with hilarious moments in it. It also has the same kind of ending.

it just wish it would become available on region 2 as i've not seen it for so many years.

VHS : The Double Life Of Veronique [1992]

The Double Life Of Veronique [1992]


starring: Irène Jacob, Wladyslaw Kowalski, Halina Gryglaszewska, Kalina Jedrusik, Aleksander Bardini
directed by: Krzysztof Kieslowski
March 22, 1993
Best Selling > VHS > World Cinema

One of Krzysztof Kieslowski's finest films is "The Double Life of Veronique" ("La Double vie de Véronique"). It's not just a philosophical, arty film, but a subtle and unique tale full of Kieslowski's directorial magic, and gives Irène Jacob a chance to shine in her most challenging role.

There are two women, the Polish Weronika and the French Veronique (both played by Irène Jacob). They have never met, never spoken, and do not know that the other exists. They share the same losses and the same health. Weronika is a singer, and Veronique is taking singing lessons. But their lives and souls are bound together, and their personalities are yin-yang opposites, one practical and one a stargazer.

What is more, each has the strange feeling ... Read More:

I remember watching this film when i was growing up and decided to have a flashback so i went online to buy this little beutie of a film.

I forgot how much i loved the character of Farmer hogget, amazingly played and he makes me feel all warm inside, wish he was my grandad :P

and who could forget about those cheerful little mice as a nice little extra.

I persoanlly think this is an amazing film that even adults can enjoy. Truely one of the classic family films that makes you feel all happy :D

I first saw this at the Playboy theatre in 1973 in Chicago. It amazes me that this film has been buried, nearly unheard of. It has the steady, patient gaze of pure cinema and makes me long for the days when films like this could capture the face of the visible world as it was and is lived. This is perhaps nostalgia, not for a lost reality, but I think it more precise to think it is an expressed regret that reality no longer matters to the culture: postmodern equivocation masks its diminutive status with contempt for noble gestures such as this three and a half hours black and white film devoted to the details that make up a life.
