1.Notting Hill [1999] starring: Hugh Grant, Julia Roberts, Richard McCabe, Rhys Ifans, James Dreyfus directed by: Roger Michell October 07, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.01
I have a confession to make: I didn't really enjoy Pretty Woman that much, and Four Weddings and a Funeral (not to mention Mickey Blue Eyes, Two Weeks Notice and About a Boy) didn't really do it for me. However, in Notting Hill, as far as I am concerned, everything comes together for Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant, delivering a landmark in the gentle countryside of romantic comedy. This is not the only time that Julia Roberts plays a version of herself -- she knowingly sends herself up in Ocean's Twelve. And this is not the only time Hugh Grant has played this particular character -- heck, it's the good-natured but over-witty English fopp he always plays. But the pairing of these two well-honed characters is exactly ... Read More:

2.My Night With Reg starring: David Bamber, Anthony Calf, Joe Duttine, Roger Frost, Kenneth MacDonald directed by: Roger Michell September 01, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £4.99
This is a poignant tale set at the height of the outbreak of AIDS and the development of an AIDS test. A group of gay friends reminisce at a wake for one of their circle who's died of AIDS, as the conversation unfolds it becomes apparent that each man there has had unprotected sex with their recently departed friend.

3.Titanic Town [1999] starring: Julie Walters, Ciarán Hinds, Nuala O'Neill, James Loughran, Barry Loughran directed by: Roger Michell January 10, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £16.74
Based in 1972 Belfast when children played in the street and snipers hid in the bushes, a housewife cried out against the silent system after her best friend was shot by accident. Julie Waters plays the role of Bernie McPhilemy convincingly as the mother who simply wants to just know why the shooting can't be held after nightfall, when then children are off the street, not suspecting the tangle of intrigue, anger, and political puppeteering she has entered. Ciaran Hinds portrays the dark dicotomy of the times, trying to keep his family intact with sarcastic humour and devil-may-care bravado while inwardly being torn apart by the stress. This movie does not try to state who is right or wrong but asks how in the world do people cope with the insanities. ... Read More:

4.Jane Austen Box Set [1972] starring: Doran Goodwin, Colin Firth, Alison Steadman, Jennifer Ehle, Irene Richard directed by: John Glenister, Roger Michell, Giles Foster, David Giles, Simon Langton September 03, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
The BBC versions of the Jane Austin classics are excellent. Every production is true to the novel and in general the casting/acting/scenery is fantastic. These videos capture some of the finest British acting and writing ever. The most familar video here will usually be the 'Pride and Prejudice' (with Colin Firth :-) ) but 4 of the others - Emma, Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion and Mansfield Park ae also excellent interpretations of the novels. I never liked Northanger Abbey so therefore the video never appealled to me! The Sense and Sensibility is not the Emma Thompson version and Emma is not the Gwyneth Paltrow version in case you are considering this item because you are expecting those films to be included.

5.America's Sweethearts / Notting Hill / The Mexican [1999] starring: Julia Roberts, Tim McInnerny, Gina McKee, Brad Pitt, James Gandolfini directed by: Joe Roth, Roger Michell, Gore Verbinski September 15, 2003

6.Persuasion [1995] starring: Amanda Root, Ciarán Hinds, Susan Fleetwood, Corin Redgrave, Fiona Shaw directed by: Roger Michell May 01, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £1.40
Persuasion is my favourite book and this adaptation does it justice. The tone of the film matches the tone of the book: whistful. Anne is beautifully portrayed by Amanda Root and Ciaran Hinds is wonderful as the charismatic Captain Wentworth. It's far subtler than the more recent ITV adaptation, and because of that all the more beautiful. Scenes in this film would melt the hardest of hearts, yet it is still funny. The perfect comfort film.

7.Buddha Of Suburbia [1993] starring: Naveen Andrews, David Bamber, Harish Patel, Brenda Blethyn, Nisha Nayar directed by: Roger Michell March 23, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £8.75
A great piece of drama which also highlights the very colourful 70's, a great time or maybe they were great because they are all those years away! Even so things seemed so different then and I believe The Buddha of Suburbia certainly captured something very real in the way of cultural awareness and with a society very much on the change! Why isn't this on DVD?
