An Ideal Husband.
Devoted womaniser and tireless party-goer, Arthur Goring (Rupert Everett) is famed London throughout London for his refusal to take anything seriously. Sir Robert Chiltern is a brilliant politician, a perfect gentleman and the ideal husband for he captivating lady Chitern (Cate Blanchett). However, when the scheming Mrs Cheveley (Julianne Moore( threatens to reveal a dark secret from Sir Robert's past, the very foundations of his perfect life took set to collapse. Cornered, he turns to Arthur who instantly finds himself caught up in a tangled web of lies, temptations and tyrsts. And as if life is not troublesome enough, the persistent charms of Mabel Chiltern and the constant badgering of his father, Lord Caversham, are beginning to pose a threat to Arthur's blissful bachelorhood.
Tom Jones.
Winner of four ACADEMY AWARDS (1963: Picture; Director; Music Score; Writing, Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium) including Best Picture, and featuring a cast of superb players headed by the OSCAR-nominated (Best Actor, Tom Jones (1963), Murder on the Orient Express (1974), The Dresser (1983), Under the Volcano (1984); York: this wickedly funny classic has been hailed as the best comedy ever made. No one has ever lived so freely and carelessly as Tom Jones. Abandoned at birth and raised by a wealthy squire, Tom romps through English society, leading a lustly life of brawling and bed-hopping....until his bawdy behaviour causes him to be sent away from his family, his home and the only woman he's ever truly loved. But somemen never learn, and soon Tom's escapades land him in the company of reckless soundrels, the boudoirs of more women...and, finally, in jail. Will Tom's charm save him... or will the gallows be his last swing?
A Passage To India.
Enter a world where cultures so violently than an entire country could split at any moment. Nominated for eleven ACADEMY AWARDS and winner of two, A Passage to India is a wonderfully provocative tale, full of vivid characters, all played to near perfection. With a fabulous cast that includes Peggy Ashcroft, Judy Davis, James Fox, Sir Alec Guinnes, and Nigel Havers, this hauntingly beautiful film is a daring triumph. When liberal-minded English ladies Mrs. Moore (Ashcroft) and Adela Quested (Davis) arrive in India, they're shocked by the extreme racial prejudice that exists there. Fortunately, kind Dr. Aziz (Victor Banerjee) rises above the intolerance and guides the women on a splendid tour of the mysterious Marabar caves. But the outing turns tragic when Adela suddenly comes running from one of the caves - scratched, bleeding and terribly frightened. News of the incident quickly spreads across the whole of India....igniting a powder key of tension just waiting to explode. A rich tapestry woven of the clash two cultures, A Passage to India is supreme entertainment and a visual wonder that is truly spellbinding!
