David Threlfall

Leaving July 31. With his trademark Fez and bumbling state persona, Tommy Cooper is one of Britain's most respected comedians.

Cited by Mike Leigh as one of his personal favorites among his own works, THE KISS OF DEATH is a mordantly funny portrait of Trevor (David Threlfall), a terminally shy mortician’s assistant who stumbles awkwardly into a would-be relationship with Linda (Kay Adshead), a more assertive young woman whom he meets through his buddy’s girlfriend. Trevor’s bumbling attempts at intimacy culminate in one of the most unforgettable and searingly honest “love scenes” ever captured on film.

A historical drama following Nella, a downtrodden housewife who blossoms after joining the Women's Voluntary Service at the outbreak of World War II.

During the Napoleonic Wars, a brash British captain pushes his ship and crew to their limits in pursuit of a formidable French war vessel around South America.

A wicked comedy set in Egypt and London in the late 1950s. Lili (exotic, rebellious, free-living and dangerously delightful) descends on deeply conservative Monica, who is frantically preparing for her daughter's wedding. Forming an unholy alliance with the groom's mother, Lili prevents a disastrous marriage by causing a scandal that suburbia will never forget.

David Suchet and Colin Blakely star in this bitingly black comedy about Stalin's reign in 50s Russia. As the ageing dictator becomes increasingly paranoid, he instigates a wave of terror with help from his chief of police. 1983
