Behind The Sun [DVD] [2002]Behind The Sun [DVD] [2002]
Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £1.82
This film is a visual feast; the cinematography is utterly exquisite and even without a storyline, I would have been transfixed throughout. Walter Salles (Central Station, Motorcycle Diaries) is fast
28 Weeks Later [DVD] [2007]28 Weeks Later [DVD] [2007]
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £0.19
I think, one of the best horror films ever.. and the sequel too, 28 weeks later.. both excellent.

American suburbia at its finest.. a charming little tale that I've watched over and over!

Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £2.65
A beautiful, touching film with breathtaking Walter-Salles-style cinematography and a truly heart-rending storyline. When 'cheating' Dora uses up most of the film's plot to maternally befriend a needy

Buy used from: £45.99
