A Clockwork Orange
Ready for a little of the old ultraviolence? Returning to cinemas 55 years on from its release, cinema auteur Stanley Kubrick’s cult dystopian crime-thriller A CLOCKWORK ORANGE. In an England of the future, Alex and his "Droogs" spend their nights getting high at the Korova Milkbar before embarking on "a little of the old ultraviolence," while jauntily warbling Singin' in the Rain. After he's jailed for bludgeoning the Cat Lady to death, Alex submits to behaviour modification technique to earn his freedom, where he's conditioned to abhor violence. Returned to the world defenceless, Alex becomes the victim of his prior victims. Featuring outstanding performances from its cast, including Golden Globe nominee Malcolm McDowell, Andrienne Corri, Patrick Magee and Warren Clarke, A CLOCKWORK ORANGE is a brilliant and provocative exploration of free will, societal control and the human psyche.

La Haine
So far, so good... Critically acclaimed writer-director Mathieu Kassovitz's cult crime-thriller La Haine returns to cinemas for its 30th anniversary. While to most outsiders Paris seems the very picture of beauty and civility, France has had a long and unfortunate history of intolerance toward outsiders, and this powerful drama from filmmaker Mathieu Kassovitz takes an unblinking look at a racially diverse group of young people trapped in the Parisian economic and social underclass. Vinz (Vincent Cassel), Hubert (Hubert Kounde), and Said (Said Taghmaoui) are young men from the lower rungs of the French economic ladder; they have no jobs, few prospects, and no productive way to spend their time. They hang out and wander the streets as a way of filling their days and are sometimes caught up in frequent skirmishes between the police and other disaffected youth. One day, a street riot breaks out after police seriously injure an Arab student; the three friends are arrested and questioned, and it is learned that a policeman lost a gun in the chaos. However, what they don't know is that Vinz picked it up and has it in his possession, and when Vinz, Hubert, and Said get into a scuffle with a group of racist skinheads, the circumstances seem poised for tragedy. La Haine is a powerful piece of sociopolitical filmmaking, showcasing the destructive consequences of hatred and how it establishes a hopeless cycle of violence and devastation.

In Thief, James Caan plays Frank, a professional jewel thief who wants to marry Jessie (Tuesday Weld) and settle down into a normal life.

Frank plans to retire after the heist, yet he finds himself indebted to Leo and he struggles to break free. Thief is the first feature film from director Michael Mann and it seethes with his stylish, atmospheric direction. Though his cool approach may put off some viewers, it's a distinctive and effective story-telling approach, and Caan's performance ranks among his very best, making Thief a crime movie like few others.
