Nijinsky - Uma História Real
Baron de Gunzburg
The film suggests Nijinsky was driven into madness by both his consuming ambition and self-enforced heterosexuality, the latter prompted by his romantic involvement with Romola de Pulszky, a society girl who joins impresario Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes specifically to seduce Nijinsky. After a series of misunderstandings with Diaghilev, who is both his domineering mentor and possessive lover, Nijinsky succumbs to Romola's charms and marries her, after which his gradual decline from artistic moodiness to complete lunacy begins.

Where Adam Stood
"Where Adam Stood" is "based on" the 1907 autobiography, "Father and Son", by Christian fundamentalist and naturalist Edmund Gosse, but Dennis Potter adapted only one section of the book, adding much material of his own invention. The drama was filmed on the Devon coast near Torquay, not far from where Gosse lived. With a literal belief in the Old Testament, Philip Gosse is opposed to the new theories of Charles Darwin, espoused here by biologist Brackley. Assuming "the Lord's will" determines the fate of his ailing son Edmund, Philip Gosse creates a life-threatening situation, even suggesting the illness is God's punishment because of Edmund's desire for a toy ship.

Os sobreviventes restantes da extinta Legião Estrangeira Francesa, agora numa organização terrorista, a OAS, fizeram repetidas tentativas de matar o presidente francês Charles De Gaulle. O resultado é que ele se tornou o homem mais bem protegido do mundo. Em um ato de desespero eles contratam O Chacal, o codinome do assassino de aluguel que se compromete a matar De Gaulle em troca de meio milhão de dólares. Ele começa então a planejar a morte do famoso presidente francês para o dia 25 de agosto de 1963. Veremos os preparativos do assassino que são tão minuciosos que nos perguntaremos como ele poderia falhar, mesmo quando vemos a tentativa da polícia francesa de achar seu rastro. A situação é historicamente precisa. Houveram muitos desses atentados e o filme segue de perto o enredo do livro. (e 14 - Estimado 14 Anos)
