Alyas Batman en Robin
This mind melting genre hodgepodge is a Filipino musical action comedy romance parody of the American TV show “Batman”. Filled with bizarre song and dance numbers centered around classic American oldies, like The Everly Brother’s “Bird Dog” or Danny & the Juniors “At the Hop!” the movie conveys a sense of humor that seems to be totally confined to it’s own corner of the world. For the rest of us, the effect is stupefyingly wonderful, in a painfully sublime kind of way. In other words, any and all fans of weirdo international cinema will certainly be hitting the proverbial jackpot when viewing this.

Berkeley Square
Made in 1933, this Frank Lloyd directed film tells the story of a young American man who is transported back in time to London during the American Revolution, where he meets many of his ancestors. Starring Leslie Howard & Heather Angel, the film was based on a stage play and spawned a remake called “I’ll Never Forget You” starring Tyrone Power & Ann Blyth.

Freelance aka Con Man
Ian McShane stars in this 1971 British crime film about a small time con man who accidentally steps in the middle of a gangland hit and stops it. As a result, the mafia is out to get him, forcing him into hiding. But being that his income comes from elaborate schemes, he has to find a way to lay low while still maintaining a presence on the streets.

The Fabulous World of Jules Verne
Karel Zeman’s 1958 masterpiece is a breathtaking film
shot in crisp black & white; the visuals are nonstop astounding, driving the viewer into sensory overload with its elaborately painted sets made of designs so ornate and impressive, they call for the pause button throughout.
The Fabulous Baron Munchausen
Directed by Karel Zeman, known as the father of Czech animated film. “The Fabulous Baron Munchausen” is an astounding work of film genius, crafted with painstaking detail and dedication to truly capture the whimsical nature of Munchausen’s breezy, airy tall tales.


HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
The Seed of Man
Playing very much like the inspiration for Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize winning, post apocalyptic novel “The Road”, Ferreri’s film tells the story of an unknown force that has ravaged the world of its population and its resources. A young couple seeks safety and solitude in a house on the coast where they attempt to turn the home into a makeshift museum dedicated to the culture of the human race.
O Assalto ao Trem Pagador
a.k.a. The Train Robbers is a classic work of Brazilian cinema. Made in 1963, this stark black and white film tells the story of a group of small time thieves from the slums of Rio de Janeiro who plan and execute the robbery of a train carrying money on its way to the Bank of Brazil.
 
The Nickel Ride
Written by Eric Roth, “Forrest Gump”, “Ali”, “Munich” & “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button;" The Nickel Ride is a tightly constructed, dark & dreary neo noir crime story combining the loser, lower rings of the crime world view of “The Friends of Eddie Coyle” with. In many ways, an even darker kind of neo-realism than the Friends of Eddie Coyle. An unknown existential classic among early 70’s crime films.
