    Featured here as a brand-new High Definition restoration, Peter Whitehead's celebrated film probes the myth and the reality of Swinging London presenting an intimate, impressionistic collage of rare concert and studio performances, interviews with key figures from the worlds of music, art and cinema, and images of Sixties counterculture. John Lennon, Yoko Ono, Mick Jagger, Vanessa Redgrave, Lee Marvin, Julie Christie, Allen Ginsberg, Edna O'Brien, David Hockney and Michael Caine are among those captured on film and in sound; bookended by a performance of Pink Floyd's Interstellar Overdrive, the soundtrack features songs by the Rolling Stones and Eric Burdon. Made when many young people saw politicised hedonism as the logical response to global uncertainty, Whitehead's Pop Concerto for Film taps into both the confidence and the confusion of an iconic moment in time.

    Presented here in a lavish box set along with an accompanying book the Masters Of Cinema series presents three of Mikio Naruse's finest films Repast (1951) depicts the lives of common people in this instance to capture the pungent atmosphere of fading love. Set shortly after World War II and concerning a struggling marriage between salaryman Hatsunosuke (Ken Uehara) and his wife Michiyo (Setsuko Hara) it focuses on the emotional crisis of the bored housewife. The repetitive tedium of her domestic life is brought into focus by a visit from Hatsunosuke's niece Satoko (Yukiko Shimazaki ) on whom Hatsunosuke lavishes much attention. Adapted from a novel by Kawabata Yasunari the first Japanese author to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature Sound Of The Mountain (1954) is one of Naruse's best-known and most respected films typifying his preferred genre of shomin-geki (films about the daily lives of ordinary people). Set in the ancient seaside town of Kamakura Kawabata's home the film depicts the increasingly close relationship between a childless young woman Kikuko (Setsuko Hara) and her father-in-law Shingo (So Yamamura) to whom she turns as her own marriage to the neglectful and philandering Shuichi (Ken Uehara) disintegrates. The more Shuichi destroys his marriage the closer Shingo and Kikuko become. The third film Flowing directed in 1956 (the year that prostitution was outlawed in Japan) explores the inner workings of a changing world as traditional geishas faced the impending decline of their hidden way of life and the looming spectre of prostitution. It depicts the story of a widow Rika (Kinuyo Tanaka) who is forced to work for a living and becomes a maid in a struggling Tokyo geisha house where Tsutayakko (Isuzu Yamada ) its proud mistress tries to save the house from becoming either a restaurant or a brothel. It is through Rika a surrogate for the viewer that we are introduced to the various geishas who drink and fight worry over the lack of clients and attempt to stave off imminent extinction.

    Set Comprises: Enron: The Smartest Guys In The Room (2005): This searing examination of the Enron accounting scandal reveals the psychology of greed and corporate corruption that facilitated the company's rise to power and also its fall. When Enron went bankrupt in 2001 the principals walked away millionaires--but later faced legal proceedings and jail sentences. Meanwhile many employees and investors were left with nothing not even their retirement savings. Shedding light on the new economy of the 1990s when predictions and book-cooking flourished without actual profits the film shows how it was not Enron alone but a network of bankers traders and accountants who turned a blind eye to the company's clearly suspicious numbers. CEO Ken Lay and top dogs Jeff Skilling and Andy Fastow give candid interviews that illustrate their skill at deflecting hard questions and egotistically boasting about the company's success. In one of the company's cold and calculated moves - which caused the California power outages and lead to the ousting of governor Gray Davis - Enron employees are shown laughing at forest fires. Unbelievable footage of employees reveals unbridled greed lust for risk-taking and guiltless cheating all while thinking they could never be caught. Finally a few brave whistle-blowers stepped forward including Bethany McLean author of the Enron novel upon which this film is based who wrote an article in Fortune magazine calling the company's bluff. A remarkable documentary which packages the events of the scandal into a cohesive story this is one film not to miss! One Day In September (1999): 1972. The Munich Olympic Games. 121 nations. 7 123 competitors. Over a billion viewers and 8 Palestinian terrorists. For the first time in over 25 years the truth is revealed.

Featuring the frightening perspective of the only surviving terrorist and revelatory facts about what really happened on that dark night. Directed by Kevin MacDonald and narrated by Michael Douglas One Day In September unfolds like a gripping thriller - except this unforgettable story is completely true...
