Holy Healy
Thomas Crimmins is a new warder, or guard, in an Irish prison. He is young, naive, and idealistic, determined to serve his country by his part in meting out justice to criminals. His superior, Regan, however, realizes that even prisoners are human beings, and Regan is sick of the eye-for-an-eye attitude that leads the state to execute condemned men, or "quare fellows." Crimmins begins to see that not all is black and white in his new world, and when he becomes involved with Kathleen, the wife of one of the condemned men, his attitude begins to change. When new evidence arises to suggest that Kathleen's husband may not deserve his fate, Crimmins is torn between his duty and his humanity.
P.H.
Um advogado proeminente enfrenta um chantagista que ameaça homens gays com divulgação de seus atos homossexuais (que ainda eram ilegais). Mas ele mesmo é gay. Um verdadeiro pedido de reforma dos estatutos anti-sodomia da Inglaterra, este filme coloca Melville Farr, um advogado casado, contra um chantagista que tem fotos de Farr e um jovem gay no carro de Farr. O jovem é chantageado e se suicida. Após o suicídio, Farr localiza outros homens gays sendo extorquidos pelo mesmo chantagista. O bem-educado policial Detetive Inspetor Harris considera a lei de sodomia nada mais do que um auxílio a chantagistas, e ajuda Farr em enfrentar o blefe de seu chantagista. O filme, muito à frente de seu tempo, termina com Farr e sua esposa chegando a um acordo com sua homossexualidade depois da exposição pública que ele enfrenta no julgamento do chantagista.

Brabantio
A tragédia envolvendo fúria, ciúme e assassinato em torno de Othello, Iago e Desdemona. Esta estranha e magnífica visão de Welles para o clássico de Shakespeare, já era a 12ª versão levada para as telas. Filmada na Itália e Marrocos, teve sérios problemas de produção, levando mais de dois anos para finalizar. Mesmo assim, Welles teve controle absoluto sob a obra, dos diálogos à montagem final. Com todas estas dificuldades para a realização de Othello e vendo o impressionante resultado final, o filme ganhou status de CultMovie. (e Livre - Estimado Livre)
