Revelation Films presents a collection of Sweden's finest and most infamous erotica of the late 60s and 70s.A mixture of eroticism, arthouse and education, movies such as The Language of Love, Exposed, Wide Open and Anita (starring the mesmerising Christina Lindberg) blurred the lines between sex and art. Controversial and banned at the time, yet now viewed as ground-breaking and an influence on many of today's finest film directors, The Swedish Erotica Collection contains themes that pushed the boundaries of acceptability and shocked even the liberal mind country they originated from.
I Spit on Your Grave, writer-director Meir Zarchi's controversial story of rape and revenge, has lost none of its ability to shock viewers since it first gained notoriety in 1978. Camille Keaton (grand-niece of Buster Keaton and, later, Zarchi's wife) stars as a young woman who is terrorised and then brutally assaulted by four men while on vacation. After slowly pulling herself together, she methodically tracks down and butchers each of the perpetrators. Zarchi's film has been consistently accused of celebrating violence against women, and while the rape scenes are graphic, they also lack the voyeuristic qualities that earmark other similarly plotted exploitation films. If anything, Zarchi is guilty of awkward scripting; the dialogue is leaden, and Keaton's transformation from victim to avenger is too swift. But to label him a pornographer is wrong, and while the film is challenging--perhaps more than most audiences can bear--its depiction of the psychology of violence is undeniably powerful. --Paul Gaita
Based on the memoir Rocket Boys by Homer H. Hickam Jr, October Sky emerged as one of the most delightful sleepers of 1999--a small miracle of good ole fashioned movie-making in the cynical, often numbingly trendy Hollywood of the late 20th century. Hickam's true story begins in 1957 with Russia's historic launch of the Sputnik satellite, and while Homer (played with smart idealism by Jake Gyllenhaal) sees Sputnik as his cue to pursue a fascination with rocketry, his father (Chris Cooper) epitomises the admirable yet sternly stubborn working-man's ethic of the West Virginia coal miner, casting fear and disdain on Homer's pursuit of science while urging his "errant" son to carry on the family business--a spirit-killing profession that Homer has no intention of joining.As directed by Joe Johnston (The Rocketeer), this wonderful movie is occasionally guilty of overstating its case and sacrificing subtlety for predictable melodrama. But more often the film's tone is just right, and the spirit of adventure and invention is infectiously conveyed through Gyllenhaal and his well-cast fellow rocketeers, whose many failures gradually lead to triumph on their makeshift backwoods launching pad. Capturing time and place with impeccable detail and superbly developed characters (including Laura Dern as an inspiring schoolteacher), October Sky is a family film for the ages, encouraging the highest potential of the human spirit while giving viewers a clear view of a bygone era when "the final frontier" beckoned to the explorer in all of us. --Jeff Shannon

Banned in 36 countries, the film explores themes of sadomasochism and sexual oppression, showing the dark side of sex and human nature.
The sexual revolution of the 1960s culminated in Dr David Reuben's Everything You Wanted To Know About Sex (But Were Afraid To Ask), published in 1969. That same year, Krlekens Sprk (The Language of Love) was released in Sweden, a sexually explicit sex education film based on clinical research made by American and Swedish doctors. Controversy surrounded the release - to many it was little more than sexploitation masquerading as scientific study. It was denied entrance into the US, and here in the UK 30,000 protestors marched in London demanding the film be banned. Eventually granted a certificate four years later. 40 years on, The Language Of Love remains an important historical insight into the sexual behaviour of an equally important period of social change, and is rightly described as the mother of all sex education films.
