1 10min. The whole cra/y tale of Factory records. the Hacienda and all things Madchester is retold by writer l‘rank (‘ottrell Boyce who has done something quite extraordinary turned Tony Wilson‘s dysfunctional adventure from 1970 to now into a post-modern romp that never takes itself too seriously. Boyce's regular collaborator. Winterbottom. directs like a man possessed by the conjoined spirits of Jean-l.uc (iodard and Lindsay Anderson. and is more than up to the task using a variety of scratchy. quirky. punky devices to tell tales from a cantankerous city.

'I‘lic’ (.'ii/ailli,fitl is a pretty tiresome effort. Diane Lane dominates the film as Richard (iere’s dutiful but bored wife. who has a chance fling with French hottie ()livier Martinez.

France. 1990) Michel Blane. (ierard [)epardieu. Philippe .\'oiret. Jean-Pierre Marielle. 100mm. A small t‘rench town in the immediate aftermath of World War Two is the setting for Berri's wordy examination of political manoevrings. Tensions are high between the now dominant ('ommunists and those suspected of sheltering a former collaborator. but it would appear that [)epardieu‘s loudmouth barman knows too much about what really went on during the war years.

Part historical epic. part surreal fantasy. part lyrical love story. 1mm ranges across three generations of Spanish history from the 1830s to the (‘ivil War. using images of cows as visual metaphors for Spain itself.
