Recommended   Brazil   Salome's Last Dance   A Zed and Two Noughts		Brazil Details :  UK 1985 142m Director :  Terry Gilliam Cast :  Jonathon Pryce, Robert de Niro, Micahel Palin, Kim Greist, Katherine Helmond, Ian Holm, Ian Richardson, Peter Vaughan, Bob Hoskins Fantasy and surrealism meet Orwellian 1984. It is probably enough to say that this is a Terry Gilliam film. More correctly though, it is the Terry Gilliam film. From a small clerical error involving a Mr Tuttle and Mr Buttle, we follow our hero as the consequential events unfold, as he passes through life in this strange Orwellian landscape and as he pursues the girl of his dreams. Salome's Last Dance Details :  UK 1987 90m Director :  Ken Russell Cast :  Glenda Jackson, Stratford Johns, Nickolas Grace, Douglas Hodge, Imogen Millais-Scott, Dennis Ull, Ken Russell Russell watches Oscar Wilde watching Salome Wow ! Just what you'd expect from Ken Russell. Mere words cannot explain Russell's art of translating his visions to the silver screen. Not, I fear, to everyone's taste. You'll either love or loathe it. A Zed and Two Noughts Details :  UK 1985 115m Director :  Peter Greenway Cast :  Andrea Ferreol, Eric Deacon, Brian Deacon, Frances Barber, Joss Ackland A study of loss, decay and of wholeness. A visual narrative following two brothers whose wives were killed in a car crash with a swan. An amazing collage of documentary and dramatic footage forcefully driven along by music from Micheal Nyman.
