My Favourite Films
Taxi Driver [1976]Taxi Driver [1976]
Buy new: £5.88 / Used from: £2.99
Career best film for all involved and the greatest of the 70's American auteur surge. This is my all time favourite
Mouchette [1967]Mouchette [1967]
Buy new: £5.98 / Used from: £4.99
Bresson is, in my opinion, the greatest film maker in cinema's history. Each film says exactly what it needs to in the most precise, meticulous fashion. Incredibly moving and totally void of vanity.
Stalker [1979]Stalker [1979]
Buy new: £9.98 / Used from: £7.81
A strange, calm, moving meditation on faith and humanity. Tarkovsky's finest hour
Through A Glass Darkly [1961]Through A Glass Darkly [1961]

Madness, communication breakdown, the ambivalence of the artistic impulse, isolation.. perfect Bergman.
Eraserhead [1976]Eraserhead [1976]
Buy used from: £22.99
A horrifyingly literal manifestation of one man's fears. Lynch is the finest American director alive and this is my favourite
Touch Of Evil [1958]Touch Of Evil [1958]
Buy used from: £4.09
The seediest, darkest, most pitch-perfect movie of the fifties. Still unbeaten opning shot and iconic ending. 'He was some kind of a man... Adios.'
The Life And Death Of Colonel Blimp [1943]The Life And Death Of Colonel Blimp [1943]
Buy new: £5.68 / Used from: £2.15
English guy, German guy- they duel, make friends, coupla wars, fall in love with the same woman... True Blue war time Brit flick. It's great
Nosferatu (1922) - Two-disc setNosferatu (1922) - Two-disc set

The creepiest, most atmospheric movie ever made.
Three Colours Blue [1993]Three Colours Blue [1993]

One of the most beautifully shot movies I've seen. Easily the greatest film of the Nineties. Juliet Binoche is amazing
Jules Et Jim [1961]Jules Et Jim [1961]

Jeanne Moreau's nursery rhyme, Truffaut's slap-dash, joyful directing- favourite of the new-wave
