  • Billy Liar (1963)
    Review preview for Billy Liar

    The fashions may have come and gone since John Schlesinger commited Keith Waterhouse and Willis Hall's story of a young man torn between his family and the future to film but Billy Liar is still suprisingly light on his feet 50 years down the line.

    Amber Wilkinson · 4 out of 5
    A young man who finds lies easier than the truth is torn between the present and a possible future.
  • Jabberwocky (1977)
    Review preview for Jabberwocky

    Gilliam's monster, when we finally see it, is so hideous a thing that we can only be grateful this film is played for laughs.

    Jennie Kermode · 3.5 out of 5
    Anxious to make his fortune and win the hand of his beloved Griselda, a cooper's son agrees to support a knight on his quest to slay a monster.
