A new documentary will see BAFTA- and Academy Award-winning director and acclaimed cineaste Martin Scorsese describe his relationship to iconic British filmmaking duo Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. Scorsese describes how, from a young age, he was captivated by their films, how they helped shape his own filmmaking and how a later friendship with Powell left an indelible mark on his own life. Brought to life with a treasure trove of rare archive material from the personal collections of Powell, Pressburger and Scorsese, the story will be told using diaries, audio recordings, home movies, personal snapshots and, of course, the films themselves.

An examination of the art of comedy and the styles and techniques of some of the world's greatest comedians. Rowan Atkinson act as the presonter.

This documentary on the making of GWTW focuses on the driving force behind the legendary film, producer David O. Selznick. He purchased the rights and over several years, tried to have a script developed. Several writers had their hand in the effort and in truth, the script was never properly finalized, something that dogged the production throughout its production. While the decision to cast Clark Gable as Rhett Butler was fairly straightforward, finding the right actress to play Scarlett O'Hara captured national attention with several of Hollywood's top stars vying for the part. The original director, George Cukor, left before the films completion as did his replacement, Victor Fleming. Selznick directed some of the scenes himself and was driven to get the film completed just as he wanted. From the film's initial test screening, the film-going public adored the results.

Late Flowering lust is a combination of mime and dance that accompanies the 'voiced-over' lyrics of a selection of poems by John Betjeman. Altogether, the film portrays the events of a weekend party at an English country house. Late Flowering lust is a lot more wistful than it is lustful, but it is a real gem of a BBC production. It is a reading of a number of John Betjeman's poems by Nigel Hawthorne (Yes, Minister), one of which gives its title to the film. However the format is unique. The 'plot' is that 'Cousin John' (Hawthorne) is invited for a weekend at a country house. He, and owners of the house, are of the older generation and the daughter and all her friends are of the younger one. The action of the film consists of Nigel Hawthorne voicing-over the selected poems while the three older people mime the subject matter of each one and the 'bright young things' (who are a dance troupe - Adventures in Motion Pictures) dance the subject of each one. It doesn't sound like much to describe it as I have, you have to see it to realise just how original and creative it is. Very English, very amusing and very well done. It was choreographed by Matthew Bourne, and the music was composed by Jim Parker. The film was only ever released on VHS, so is not available in DVD quality and of course it is a 4:3 aspect ratio.

Strange Fish looks at our quest for someone to love and something, or someone, to believe in. The tyranny of couples and groups, the pain of not belonging and the fear of being alone are all laid bare in a series of powerful images. Strange Fish mixes humour, religious iconography and physicality, taking it beyond the boundaries of traditional dance.
