Film No. 32. 7th film shown Sun 04/03/07.
Jason Solomons said "A brilliant London film, a great journalist movie and a classic example of period sci-fi cinema. Loe McKern is thrilling as the Daily Express writer (it was shot in the paper's old Fleet Street HQ) who has discovered global warming - Val Guest's film seems more prescient every year. Also there's an early cameo from Michael Caine as a policeman ushering crowds out of the city, a scene eerily reflected in Alfonso Cuaron's Children Of Men this year"

Robin Hood
Film No. 44. 6th film shown Sat 03/03/07.
Jason Solomons said "Never counted among Disney classics, but my favourite because Robin was a cool, Flynn style hero and Marian was, well a fox. Peter Ustinov's spoilt brat King John is pure joy and still one of the best ever voice over performances"
