My Favourite Cake (2024)
The film is exceedingly funny, even in translation, right up to the point where the tone shifts dramatically. Deeply endearing on every level, from its anti-authoritarian politics to its body positivity to general joie de vivre.
The Hollywood Reporter. Leslie Felperin
Singing in The Rain (1952)
Singing in the Rain is a transcendent experience, and no one who loves movies can afford to miss it. Chicago Sun-Times. Roger Ebert.
Red Shoes (1948)
A fairytale about a dancer possessed by her footwear and forced to dance to her death. In 1948, Emeric Pressburger updated it to produce one of the most important and powerful films of the era, and now that film has been digitally remastered for a new audience. It’s as compelling as it ever was.
Eye For Film. Jenny Kermode.
Comrades (1986)
A remarkable epic film by Bill Douglas (“My Way Home”/”My Ain Folk”/”My Childhood”), with a good eye for details on rural life, with a strong sense of what it’s like to fight for justice when not part of the power structure, with a keen sense of history. A lanternist’s account, of the Tolpuddle Martyrs. dennisschwartzreviews.com Dennis Schwartz.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
Watching Eternal Sunshine, you don’t just watch a love story — you fall in love with what love really is. Entertainment Weekly. Owen Gleiberman

Nosferatu (2024)
It’s a Gothic horror nightmare heaving with sumptuous visual detail, groaning under the weight of portentous dread, writhing with both convulsive violence and sweaty eroticism and leavened by sly hints of fiendish camp. The Hollywood Reporter. David Rooney.
