Scum (1979)
Story of life in a British juvenile offender institution in the 70's.
Realistic, unvarnished look at a penitentiary for juvenile delinquents was, at the time, meant to be a specific political indictment, but its message is still valid and timeless.
Halliwell*: "Gorily overstated view of boys' prison life from the inside, with the camera gloating over each violent close-up."
Maltin**1/2: "Harrowing but familiar; the accents are almost unintelligible."

Machine-Gun Kelly (1958)
The criminal exploits of Public Enemy number 1, George 'Machine-Gun' Kelly, during the 1930s.
Good crime drama with Bronson giving a convincing portrayal of the famous hoodlum as a mean-spirited, cowardly psychopath.
Maltin**1/2: "With typical efficiency, Corman gives this gangster chronicle pacing and more than passing interest. Bronson is fine in the title role."

First Lines: Philip Pullman - The Amber Spyglass
In a valley shaded with rhododendrons, close to the snow line, where a stream milky with melt-water splashed and where doves and linnets flew among the immense pines, lay a cave, half-hidden by the crag above and the stiff heavy leaves that clustered below.

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017)
A dark force threatens Alpha, a vast metropolis and home to species from a thousand planets. Special operatives Valerian and Laureline must race to identify the marauding menace and safeguard not just Alpha, but the future of the universe.
Surprisingly coherent and entertaining sci-fi yarn with an abundance of visual ideas and effects; needn't fear comparison with similar Star Wars productions.
