There is a film that my Mum hired out years ago in 1998 from MVC, called 'Palookaville'. It was from 1995 and it was a crime comedy with William Forsythe and it is in a similar style to 'Welcome to Collingwood'. Has anyone else seen it?

I know it's available on DVD, but Peter Weir's Picnic at Hanging Rock rarely gets an airing on TV.
Same goes for Amadeus. |

I saw a film in the cinema in around 2005 called Stander. It's available on DVD but I've never seen it shown on TV nor does anyone else ever seem to have heard of it.

Good call, apart from a couple of misjudged attempts at humour its a cracking thriller.

. As did Hannibal Brooks, the Bridge at Remagen and Von Ryans Express. |

Xanadu The HIll (which pops up on TCM now and again, but until I stumbled on to it about 3 years ago, I'd never heard of!)

![]() Such a pity that it was Gene Kelly's last film. He deserved so much better. |

I was just thinking it's been years since I saw Coma with Michael Douglas and Genevieve Bujold.

I'm choosing to ignore the ''and DVD' part of the thread....and your shame at owning Xanadu.
Such a pity that it was Gene Kelly's last film. He deserved so much better. Another dance film that's definitely not on DVD and has only been on TV once (I think) is "Dancers" - it's basically Mikhail Baryshnikov's film of his production of Giselle with a really naff plot woven around it. I'll happily watch Baryshnikov in anything though, so I have it on video. |

Oooh, my hero Tom Selleck plays a corpse in that film. How far his career has come since then!

Coma was on rotation on the MGM channel I think (is that still going?).

Don't recall seeing 10 Rillington Place in the listings much, but it's on tonight at 11:50 on BBC2.
A good film - Dickie Attenborough excels as creepy killer Christie. But for those of you facing a cold, cloudy monday morning back to work or whatever, its seedy grimness won't be the best way to start the week. |
