## Description

Cathy, blonde and voluptuous, and Jane, dark and pert, are enjoying a cycling holiday in France. Cathy disappears. The very spot from which she vanishes has already seen the murder of one young girl.

A day too hot to last, too oppressive not to end in thunder.

* John Nettleton as Gendarme
* Clare Kelly as Schoolmistress
* Hana Maria Pravda as Madame Lassal
My Learned Friend

**My Learned Friend** is a pre-cert UK VHS released by EMI on 1980.

## Description

Will Hay, veteran star of the Music Hall, popular broadcaster, successful amateur astronomer and for many years a top money-spinner in British films, was one of the cinema's genuine originals, a comic genius fit to rank with such acknowledged all-time greats as W.C. Fields and the Marx Brothers. His popular stage act, in which he played an incompetent school-teacher, inspired by Beachcomber's immortal Doctor Smart-Allick, was the basis for several of his earlier films, and this pioneer anti-hero, compounded in equal parts of guile, cowardice, shabby gentility and incurable optimism, was wisely changed little when Will Hay branched out as station master, fireman, prison governor or District Commissioner in later pictures. In My Learned Friend (1943), a surprisingly sophisticated black comedy from the pens of Angus MacPhail and Len Dighton, Will Hay plays William Fitch, a monumentally incompetent barrister who finds himself conspicuously failing to prevent a deranged former client from murdering those he holds responsible for a recent gaol sentence. A series of bloody encounters in such diverse locales as a thieves' kitchen in London's East End, a run-down Christmas pantomime in Booth, and a bizarre lunatic asylum, culminate in a spectacular climax in which Will Hay, in Beefeater disguise, finds himself - like some latter-day Richard Hannay - suspended in space while desperately holding back the hands of Big Ben in a despairing bid to save the Houses of Parliament from imminent destruction. The film is blessed with a super-abundance of memorable supporting players including Claude Hulbert, archetypal 'silly ass' of countless 'thirties comedies; Mervyn Johns in an unnerving role as the maniac murderer Grimshaw; Maudie Edwards as a robust Principal Boy, Ernest Thesiger as a crafty lunatic, and Charles Vector as the vicious 'Softy' Wilson. As Will Hay's last film, In My Learned Friend can be seen to constitute a fitting tribute to a unique player beloved of generations, and a total joy to behold. JACK IBBERSON

## Death

In June 1939, feeling that the Batman would be a hindrance to his extortion scheme, Karl Hellfern lured the Batman into a trap, upon which Jabah shot the Batman in his shoulder, causing him to flee.

Enraged by his failure, Hellfern the next day nevertheless sent Jabah out to kill rich man John P. van Smith, who had refused to pay Hellfern protection money. There he was spotted by Bruce Wayne, secretly the Batman, who followed Jabah to Hellfern's home.

That night, the Batman snuck into the house and killed Jabah first thing by strangling him with his lasso.

Karl Hellfern

## Doctor Death

Karl Hellfern, as depicted by Bob Kane

**Doctor Karl Hellfern**, aka **Doctor Death** is a criminal scientist with feelings of being wronged by the rich and wealthy of the world. He encountered the Batman on two occasions.

## Extortion plans and first encounter with the Batman

In June 1939, Hellfern finally completed an experimental poison which is to be delivered by pollen extract. His plan was to exact "tribute from the wealthy of the world", under threat of death. Hellfern's only concern was the Bat-Man, who at this time had risen to legendary status in Gotham City. Hellfern feared a crime of this magnitude would attract the Batman's attention, and decided to find out his secret identity. To this end Hellfern put out an ad in the daily newspapers to lure the Batman into a trap.

The next night, the Batman surely appeared, and barely escaped with his life from Hellfern's manservant Jabah. However, a chance encounter the next day led the Batman to Hellfern's home, where he killed Jabah and let Hellfern seemingly succumb in flames during their fight.

## Second encounter and arrest

After escaping through a secret door, Hellfern recovered, horribly burned but nursed back to health by his manservant Mikhail. Hellfern, needing funds, tried to blackmail wealthy man John Jones. Jones, however, was near bankruptcy, and Hellfern killed him as threatened with a strange disease turning him purple in the process. Hellfern disguised himself as pawn shop owner Ivan Herd, and sent Mikhail to recover diamonds from Jones's widow. Mikhail was intercepted and followed by Batman, and killed by Batman in a fight. Hellfern, still disguised as Herd, was caught by the Batman and bound, left for the police to arrest him.

And Then There Were None

**And Then There Were None** is a pre-cert UK VHS release by Thorn EMI Video on November 1982.

## Description

*And Then There Were None* is a robust adaption of Agatha Christie's novel of a chilling and complex exercise in avengement - *Ten Little Indians*.
The plot centres around ten characters: a group as various and exotic as a chocolate assortment, who gather at a conspicuously vacant and isolated hotel in Persia at the summons of a mysterious Mr Owen. At the end of a welcoming meal, the alcoholic singer, aptly called Raven (Charles Aznavour), begins to serenade the other guests - only to be violently interrupted by a sinister pre-recorded message from their absent host (voiced by Orson Welles). With ominous relish, the voice on tape charges each of them in turn with an, as yet, unpunished murder.
So who or what is the sinister presence behind the ghastly voice, clamouring for retribution: and, indeed, to what extent are the individual members of this elegant party to blame?
A veritable showcase of international stars - including Oliver Reed, Richard Attenborough, Elke Sommer, Stephane Audran and Herbert Lom - play the trapped occupants of this inhospitable domain. One by one, like targets in a shooting gallery, they topple and disappear from view as the vile and perverted chain of events, foretold in Raven's ominous solo 'Ten Little Indians', runs the full gamut of horror, madness and deceit.

## Cast

* Charles Aznavour as Michel Raven, entertainer. Raven is accused of having run over two people in Paris while driving under the influence of alcohol.
* Stéphane Audran as Ilona Morgan, actress. Ilona is accused of having been responsible for the death of her husband "in a most cold-blooded and ruthless manner."
* Elke Sommer as Vera Clyde, secretary. Mr. Owen accuses her of having fatally poisoned her sister's fiancé.
* Gert Fröbe as Wilhelm Blore, police official. Accused of committing perjury to frame an innocent man, who subsequently died in prison.
* Herbert Lom as Edward Armstrong, doctor. Accused of having operated on a woman while drunk, causing her death.
* Oliver Reed as Hugh Lombard, businessman. Accused of murdering the young woman who was to bear his child out of wedlock.
* Richard Attenborough as Arthur Cannon, judge. Accused by Mr. Owen of having sentenced an innocent man to death by hanging.
* Maria Rohm as Elsa Martino, servant. Accused of helping her husband cause the death of her wealthy, invalid employer.
* Alberto de Mendoza as Otto Martino, servant. Accused of causing the death of his wealthy, invalid employer after tricking her into including him and his wife in her will.
* Adolfo Celi as André Salvé, military general. Accused of having been responsible for the deaths of five men who were under his command.

Morgan - A Suitable Case for Treatment

**Morgan - A Suitable Case for Treatment** is a pre-cert UK VHS released by EMI on 1980.

## Description

The trouble with Morgan is that he is a nut-case. Not actually certifiable of course, but still in the opinion of his psychiatrist 'a suitable case for treatment'. His problems all stem, so Morgan himself confides in us, from his not having been conceived in the womb of an understanding female gorilla. Instead, his ever-loving Mum (Irene Handl) is a cheerful Cockney lady who runs a workman's cafe, a veteran Party member whose days off are spent with her backsliding son on pilgrimage to Karl Marx's grave in Highgate Cemetery. Morgan's own somewhat shaky belief in the inevitability of the Revolution has become inextricably confused with his more abiding private fantasies, products of the cinematic cults of King Kong and Tarzan of the Apes. When we first meet Morgan driving his ramshackle home on wheels to his wife's house in one of the more chic London suburbs, matters have come to a head consequent upon the lovely Leonie's decision to divorce him in favour of a more sensible union with a successful art dealer. After elaborate electronic and explosive booby-traps fail to break up the proposed marriage Morgan, aided by a friendly wrestler known professionally as The Gorilla (Arthur Mullard), carries off a captive Leonie to wildest Wales to effect a reconciliation. Unfortunately this too fails and Morgan, clad in a hired gorilla costume, tries to win Leonie back in one last catastrophic effort, which leads to a mad chase across London, ending on a gigantic riverside rubbish-dump. Morgan (1966) is perhaps the most successful and best-loved of the earlier feature films made by Karel Reisz, Czech-born critic, editor and director; one of the brilliant group who emerged from the Free Cinema movement of the late 'fifties, and whose later successes included Isadora, The Gambler and The Dog Soldiers. As the gangling Morgan, affectionate, despairing, ingenious and totally impossible, David Warner gives a moving and memorable performance, and a youthful Vanessa Redgrave is radiantly lovely as the pained and puzzled Leonie.

Only Two Can Play

**Only Two Can Play** is a pre-certed UK VHS by EMI on April 1981.

## Description

In 1962, one critic reported of Only Two Can Play that 'it was the funniest script since the heyday of Ealing'; and another wrote, 'the best comedy I have seen, the best performance ever by Peter Sellers and the best possible kind of portrayal of provincial life'. Based on Kingsley Amis's novel That Uncertain Feeling, the film was adapted for the screen by Bryan Forbes. Peter Sellers, in another of his ingenious characterizations, stars as John Lewis, the unfortunate Welsh librarian, frustrated with his hum-drum existence, who is tempted by the glamorous Mrs Gruffydd Williams (Mai Zetterling). Mr Lewis's domestic life is one long problem; aggravating children, an amiable but dowdy wife, and shabby rooms with ugly painted wallpaper and primitive plumbing, all dominated by a dragon of a landlady. His life at the library is equally tedious until the wife of a wealthy local businessman steps in; not only does she fancy him, but she also offers to help him get the promotion he seeks. But Mr Lewis is not one of life's successes. Instead of watching an amateur theatre production, he embarks on an initial sortie with Miss Zetterling which ends in pure farce when a herd of cows peer in at the car window, putting an abrupt end to his grand romantic seduction. And disaster follows disaster. A review is submitted to the local newspaper but unbeknown to Lewis, the theatre burnt down before the performance! The comedy ranges from light humour to sophisticated slapstick, with a wealth of talent in supporting roles - Kenneth Griffith is the hen-pecked friend and colleague after the same job, Virginia Maskell is the unassuming wife and Richard Attenborough appears as a flamboyant Welsh poet. The film was produced and directed by the team of Launder and Gilliat, who also responsible for other successful British comedies such as The Happiest Days of Your Life and the very popular St Trinian's films.

Klassic Keystone Komedy Kapers

**Klassic Keystone Komedy Kapers** is a pre-certed UK VHS release by Thorn EMI Video on the 1980s.

## Description

**The Klassic Keystone Komedy Kapers are timeless in appeal…unique in entertainment charm.**
Over twenty stars of the silent screen feature in this classic series of comedies which has come down to us from the earliest days of Hollywood. They show the unique mastery of the great clowns of the era — Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin, Fatty Arbuckle, Chester Conklin — as well as the talents of a whole host of amazingly gifted lesser figures. These films have not been screened since before the First World War. For a long time the were lost in the archives of the American Library of Congress, where they were eventually discovered by the noted film historian and technical expert, Kemp Niver. Unfortunately, the films had not been properly stored and had suffered some damage. However, Niver managed to devise a special process and to restore the pictures to their original state. He was awarded an Oscar in 1956 by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for his magnificent work in rescuing these early masterpieces.
Cat and Mouse

**Cat and Mouse** is a pre-cert UK VHS release by Thorn EMI Video on March 1983.

## Description

Cat and Mouse is a macabre shocker about a timid man's efforts at retaliation against the whole of society for the pain suffered in a personal tragedy. Kirk Douglas plays the owlish biology teacher, George Anderson (Mousey to his pupils), whose transformations into a violent and frenzied killer reflects the dangerous contortions of a hurt mind. Devastated by his wife Laura's decision to divorce him, George is determined that nothing and no-one is going to come between him and the child he always believed he had fathered. But one cruel blow follows another as Laura attempts to draw the affections of the child away from the husband she despises. In the emotional wastes of a life rendered meaningless and utterly wretched on account of woman he once loved, George's thoughts begin to focus on plans to avenge his misery. In a haunting scene which is a chilling portent of what is to come, he quits his job and, with animal cunning, goes to ground in the sleazy rooming houses of Montreal. It is here that we witness the ghastly metamorphosis of a gentle, kind and unassuming man into a blood-thirsty and vicious predator. Here we experience the nerve-wracking build-up to the fiendish game of cat and mouse which turns with all its might upon the guilt-ridden Laura.

Crossfire

**Crossfire** is a pre-cert UK VHS release by Thorn EMI Video on April 1982.

## Description

By 1947, when Edward Dmytryk's Crossfire appeared, Hollywood thought the world was ready for some of the serious themes that the 'escapist' war-time entertainment had avoided. Chief of these proved to be anti-Semitism. In this brilliant thriller, located in that midnight-to-dawn time-belt in which the best films noirs belong, Dmytryk and his screenwriter John Paxton turn what could have been a self-conscious sermon on racial prejudice into a superbly constructed and played crime story. It opens with a man's brutal murder - seen in shadows on his apartment wall. Then, exposing the callous underside of big-city life, the movie shows us who killed him and, more important, why. The suspects include four Army buddies on lease, a bar-room floosie and her lover; and the police finally link up with the Army to set a trap and catch the killer. Dmytryk was one of those directors who 'slung the lights low' - an ambience well-suited to the methods of police interrogation and cumulative paranoia. The film has an intense and tough-willed momentum - apart from one preachy scene on the racial theme - and the ensemble playing of Robert Young, Steve Brodie, Robert Mitchum and Gloria Grahame at her most rasping and sardonic, shows how well the post-war peak of the Hollywood cinema's acting talent survives against today's more casually naturalistic players. But the films revelation is Robert Ryan. Playing the part of a suppressed psychopath, simmering with tense prejudices that boil over into sadistic acts, Ryan established his screen image all too effectively in Crossfire, and later regretted a type-casting that he strove to break. For Dmytryk and his producer Adrian Scott, the movie had tragic ironies. Shortly afterwards, both became part of the original 'Hollywood Ten', martyrs to the witch-hunts and blacklisting of 'disloyal' Americans - makers of one of the finest indictments of intolerance fell victims to the 'crossfire' of the nation's own paranoia and prejudice.

I Am a Dancer

**I Am a Dancer** is a pre-cert UK VHS released by EMI on 1980.

## Description

*I Am A Dancer* is not a life story: it's too soon for Rudolf Nureyev to contemplate that. What this 1972 film does, in ways as fascinating to amateurs as to balletomanes, is lift the curtain and show a great dancer at his work. First, as a pupil, Nureyev attends ballet class; then, as a teacher of others, he shows the dedication and sweat needed to bring the purest of the performing arts up to pitch. As the film progresses, interspersed with Nureyev's own comments, it becomes a record of performances that can now be stored in every ballet lover's library and not just in memory. Nureyev and Deanne Bergsma rehearse *Field Figures* under the eye of choreographer Glen Tetley. Their work clothes, far from the usual voluptuous costumes of ballet, show their muscular grace at every stage - like an X-ray of what we usually see from across the footlights. Nureyev is partnered by Margot Fonteyn in Frederick Ashton's version of *Marguerite and Armand*, by Carla Fracci of La Scala Ballet in *La Sylphide*, and by Lynn Seymour in the *pas de deux* from *The Sleeping Beauty*. Nureyev, a perfectionist, will probably never be satisfied with himself. But this film, minutely pre-planned and allowing the re-takes that stage work denies the dancers if a movement is misplaced, is as nearly a perfect view of one of the world's greatest dancers as can be achieved. Pierre Jourdan, who directed many of its sequences, was himself a dancer; Bryan Forbes, who directed the London-based sequences, had *Tales of Beatrix Potter* to his credit as EMI's production chief. Such sympathetic professionals helped bring out Nureyev's rarely seen relaxed (and revealing) personality. The music is of a high order, too, and includes accompaniments by the French Radio Orchestra, the orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, and music by Stockhausen with an electronic score. Nureyev calls dance 'the only passion which has filled my life'. *I Am A Dancer* captures the passion, and something of that life.

Emmanuelle 2

**Emmanuelle 2** is a pre-cert UK VHS release by Thorn EMI Video on June 1982.

## Description

The French authorities, then more censorious than they are now, classed Emmanuelle 2 as pornography when it first appeared (1975), limiting its distribution and heavily taxing its profits. There is no doubt, however, that the over-reaction was to the idea of a successor to Just Jaeckin's hugely successful Emmanuelle rather than to the completed sequel itself. French culture, it was thought, was not best served by the most avidly awaited slice of Parisian eroticism since the Folies Bergere. Emmanuelle 2 is directed not be Jaeckin but by Francis Giacobetti, another former fashion photographer who proved as good at capturing the human form without clothes as dressed to kill. Giacobetti, however, was determined to increase the film's general visual appeal. Emmanuelle 2 progresses from Hong Kong to Bali so that viewers may be diverted not just by our heroine's sexual exploits but by the sights and sounds of some of the most exotic tourist attractions in the Far East. The film looks as elegant as its predecessor, and at times even better. Its central attraction, however, is hardly the scenery, for Sylvia Kristel once again proves more that equal to her assignment. As Emmanuelle, she not only looks a treat but she acts as if she means it, whether indulging in onanistic fantasies or demanding satisfaction from male or female partners. She is avid without appearing hard, essentially innocent despite everything. And somehow she manages to seem fundamentally on the side of the angels. Emmanuelle 2 may not be great art, but it definitely isn't pornography either. It is actually consummately skilful wish-fulfillment. Which is surely part of what movies are about and what the French cinema, in particular, has always been expert at providing. DEREK MALCOLM

One Million Years BC

**One Million Years BC** is a pre-certed UK VHS by EMI on April 1981.

## Description

From its beginnings, the motion picture has been the happy hunting ground of a host of fabulous creatures - mermaids and unicorns, vampires and werewolves, dragons, zombies and assorted overgrown specimens of the insect and vegetable kingdoms. But the filmgoers "favourite" heavies have always been those of the prehistoric kind, from Winsor MCcoy's flirtatious Gertie the Dinosaur to the outlandish menagerie which snorted, shuffled and shambled its way through Professor Challenger's Lost World and the forgotten Kingdom of Kong. When the House of Hammer staked a claim to dominate all fields of cinematic fantasy it was natural that in 1966, for their 100th production, they should choose to remake the 1940 Hollywood One Million B.C. However where this had relied on real lizards magnified by the cameras, Hammer resolved to put their trust in animation. The supervision of this was entrusted to the legendary Ray Harryhausen, doyen of Hollywood special-effects men whose films have ranged from Mighty Joe Young to Jason & the Argonauts and Clash of Titans. Direction was entrusted to Don Chaffey, and to play the latter-day Fay Wray they imported Hollywood's newest monstre-sacre, Raquel Welch. The film depicts the love-story of Loana of the Shell people (Raquel Welch) for Tumak, exiled prince of the Rock Folk (John Richardson) and the manifold and often monstrous obstacles to its happy consumnation. Although it abounds in individual and tribal conflicts and concludes with a spectacular volcanic eruption, the finest sequences are inevitably those involving Harryhausen's creations, a Triceratops, a Ceratosaurus and a Brontosaurus, a giant lizard and a monstrous snapping turtle. Even more terrifying are the pterodactyl which carries of Loana as live meat for its fledglings, and the ferocious Tyrannosaurus Rex which attacks the seashore encampment of the Shell people. Delights for audiences, these must surely rank among the screen's most memorable monsters and the true stars of the film.

Kennedy Square

The Bin Lorry the council sent to get rid of the dealers

The Aftermath of the battle

```

```

**On 12 July 1998, Field Marshal Douglas "Barry" refused demands from the council to give up his benefits money and to continue to fix the BT Lines, as that attack was faltering as the troops outran their supplies and artillery, and HOFA reserves were being moved to the sector. Instead, Barry began to plan for an offensive at Saul St, which opened on 10th of July 1998. The main attack was launched by the Road works division, with the United Dole II Corps attached.**

**The second battle began on 21 July with the opening of the Second Battle of English St to the north of the Town itself. That developed into an advance which pushed the German Second Army back over a 55 kilometre front, from south of Duirdvile to Saint-Paddy's grave. Durd was captured in 22 August. On 26 August, the Council First Army widened the attack by another twelve kilometres, sometimes called the Second Battle of Texaco. Texaco fell on 29 August. The Autistican Corps crossed the Somme River on the night of 31 August, The District Council sent their "Tanks MkII" Bin lorry's to defeat Captain "Wee" Steve who broke the District lines at the Battle of the Belfast Rd. St. Paddys centre and the Battle of Bargain Land were lead by PBA Commander Ryan of Ardoyne. The PBA Fourth Army's commander, General Lewis Renellton, described the Austician advances of 31 August – 4 September as the greatest military achievement of the war.**

**On the morning of 2 September, after a heavy battle, the Crack Corps seized control of the Kennedy-Square and captured the Tanks for meth production, ruining the line (representing the west edge of the Cole Line). The battle was fought by the Crack 1st Division, 4th Division, and by the Barry 52nd Division.**
La fille mal gardee

**La fille mal gardee**is a pre-certed UK VHS release by Thorn EMI Video on April 1983.

## Description

Frederick Ashton's delightful ballet has proved irresistible to audiences of all ages and The Royal Ballet's production has immediate appeal for newcomers to ballet as well as those who return time and time again to enjoy its lyrical comedy. It's a ballet set in the English countryside, telling how Lise manages to win the hand of the man she loves - the young farmer, Colas - despite her mother's determination to marry her off to the dim-witted son of a wealthy vineyard owner. This is one of the greatest masterpieces of The Royal Ballet's repertory, created by Frederick Ashton, set amid the witty designs of Osbert Lancaster, with Hérold's delightful melodies to inspire the performances by some of the Company's leading artists.
Buffalo Bill and the Indians

**Buffalo Bill and the Indians** is a pre-cert UK VHS release by Thorn EMI Video on April 1982.

## Description

Winner of the prestigious Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival of 1976, Robert Altman's Buffalo Bill and the Indians is not a movie which gives up all its secrets at a first viewing. Although the subtitle "Sitting Bull's history lesson" hints that there's more to the film than meets the eye. The opening scene bears this out. In the glowing but unreal colours of the front covers of the Wild West paperbacks of almost a century ago, a marauding band of savage Indians is massacring a family of settlers. Then as the camera pulls back, the prairie and distant mountains prove to be just a painted backcloth; the dead pick themselves up; property men wheel away he log cabin. For the Indian wars are now over, and William F. Cody (Paul Newman) is re-staging history as mass entertainment in his Wild West Show and adding lustre to his own heroic image as the legendary Buffalo Bill. He shuts his ears to the sardonic comments of story writer Ned Buntline (Burt Lancaster), who knows that Cody is really a hero of fiction based on a smattering of fact . A tinsel star who has come to believe in his own publicity. A showman giving the public what it wants - like the sharp shooting of Annie Oakley (Geraldine Chaplin) and exciting re-enactments of battles on horseback in which the "treacherous" Indians invariably end up biting the dust. The whites are all goodies, the redskins all baddies. Surrounded by sycophants, Cody sees himself as a giant among pygmies until he meets his match in his old adversary Sitting Bull (Frank Kaquitts). Released from prison to appear as himself in Cody's latest audience puller, Custer's Last Stand, the Sioux chief refuses to play the white man's game. He remains aloof and inscrutable, speaking only through his wily interpreter (Will Sampson). The scene is now set for a battle of wits and wills in a slyly satirical comedy with a relevance to all history as it has been simplified and distorted to fit the needs of popular entertainment.
