Very few people know this film sadly, so I may come over a bit preacher-ish. Sorry, but until relatively recently you couldn't even get this film on video in the UK and it hadn't been shown on terrestrial telly for nearly ten years. I'm not going to get into the whys and wherefores about whether or not it deserved updating, but I love them. I know that this is an obvious choice, being very cultish, but it's in the list. Then theres the fabulously beautiful Sean Young with an impossible haircut, and Vangelis' wonderful score.
Imagination run amok.

John Mills and Sylvia Sims lead a cast trying to survive in the wartime north African desert. Chungking Express Magnificantly different film by Wong Kar Wei is in fact two nearly completely seperate stories.
