David Cronenberg's 1981 horror film Scanners is a darkly paranoid story of a homeless man (Stephen Lack) mistakenly believed to be insane, when in fact he can't turn off the sound of other people's thoughts in his telepathic mind. Helped by a doctor (Patrick McGoohan) and enlisted in a programme of "scanners"--telepaths who also can will heads to explode--he becomes involved in a battle against nefarious forces. A number of critics consider this to be Cronenberg's first great film, and indeed it has a serious vision of destiny that rivals some of the important German expressionist works from the silent cinema. Lack is very good as the odd hero, and McGoohan is effectively eccentric and chilly as the scientist who saves him from the street, only to thrust him into a terrible struggle. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com

With no Glasto' festival in 2006 this may be the best way to sample the finest musical gathering in the UK. In 1970 a young farmer named Michael Eavis opened his 150-acre farm to 1 500 people who paid one pound each to watch a handful of pop and folk stars perform all weekend long and the Glastonbury Festival was born. The following year several rich hippies including Winston Churchill's granddaughter provided funds to enlarge the event and 12 500 people turned up to see David Bowie and Joan Baez. For most of the past 30 years the Worthy Farm in Glastonbury has provided a delirious outdoor concert for thousands of people over the summer-solstice weekend. Julien Temple whose film The Filth and the Fury screened at Sundance in 2000 has spent the past few years collecting footage from every single Glastonbury Festival ranging from professional outtakes from the film Nicolas Roeg made about the 1971 event to amateur home videos collected from the attendees themselves often retrieved from forgotten corners of closets and attics.
