Alicia Audley
When Lucy Graham (Neve McIntosh) weds the much older Sir Michael Audley (Kenneth Cranham), his nephew Robert (Steven Mackintosh) is suspicious of the lovely young woman's motives. Soon, Robert's friend disappears, and Robert believes Lucy may be involved. But as he attempts to unearth the truth about Lucy's past, he finds himself irresistibly drawn to her dangerous allure. Betsan Morris Evans's period drama is based on the novel by Mary Elizabeth Braddon's.

Originally produced for the Showtime anthology series Picture Windows and screened at the Cannes Film Festival, this whimsical British short speculates upon the origins of the anonymous painting, Two Nudes Bathing, which hangs in the Louvre. The painting depicts two beautiful, naked young women engaged in a tender act. The result is the notorious painting in which the nude girls are depicted with one of them daintily holding the nipple of the other. Naturally, the finished work causes quite a stir in Comte's prudish household. Though rumors persist of a feature-length version of this film, they are unfounded: it was originally shot and produced as a 35-minute short, and that was the version that ran and was reviewed at Cannes.

Girl Angel
История Сына человеческого увидена через цепь искушений, ловушек, развилок. Ее двигает экстатический страх, и смотришь его с тяжелым чувством, потому что это триллер веры. Скорсезе изображает последователей Иисуса совершенно земными. Они желали революции, а Он принял Распятие, пошел на крест и вверг их надежды на земное царство в прах, и уподобил их земное существование праху. Но последующая развилка невероятно мощна: Распятый на кресте освобожден от миссии, у него будет свадьба, дом, дети, дорога от объятий к объятиям, от сына к сыну, возделываемый сад.
