Deep Red Italy | 1975 | 126 min Featuring: David Hemmings, Daria Nicolodi, Gabriele Lavia Musician Marcus Daly become the sole witness to a brutal murder on his way home from work late one night. He arrives at the scene too late to help the victim. While talking to the police at the crime scene, Marcus start to notice how the apartment looks staged, like something has been rearranged.

Deep Red mark the first-time collaboration between the director and Academy Award nominated screenwriter Bernardino Zapponi. It also marks the first collaboration with Italian rock group Goblin who have successfully been scoring soundtracks for Italian films ever since. 2 Phenomena Italy | 1985 | 116 min Featuring: Jennifer Connelly, Donald Pleasence, Dario Nicolodi Close to a prestigious boarding school in Switzerland the body of a dead tourist turns up beheaded. Months later young and beautiful Jennifer Corvino arrives at the school, unaware of these previous events. Jennifer’s interest for insects and the fact that she is prone to sleepwalking soon make her the target of ridicule from her classmates. During one of her sleepwalks Jennifer witnesses another murder and wakes up alone in the forest remembering nothing but fragments of the night. Phenomena is a murder mystery starring Academy Award winning Jennifer Connelly and the brilliant Donald Pleasence, with scenes that will have you hold your breath in suspense. Suspiria Italy | 1977 | 98 min Featuring: Jessica Harper, Stefania Casini, Flavio Bucci Clueless about what is to come, young Suzy Bannion arrives at the airport in Munich to enroll in a prestigious ballet academy. Arriving late at night, in the midst of a thunderstorm, however makes for a not so pleasant welcome. She gets to witness a student fleeing in a state of terror. As Suzy’s semester starts, she quickly realizes something is wrong, and her time at the Academy turns into a supernatural nightmare, paved with a series of sinister murders. Italian Giallo-director Dario Argento has been unanimously praised throughout the 20th century as the greatest at his craft. Suspiria is widely considered his magnum opus, embodying the essence of modern horror cinema. 3 Bresson, Robert Pickpocket France | 1959 | 75 min Featuring: Martin LaSalle, Marika Green, Jean Pélégri Michel goes to a horse race to make some easy money. Though for a simple pickpocket like Michel, the easy money doesn’t come from horse-betting. On his way from the tracks he is, however, arrested. And as we know, when once fallen in to crime the way back is a tough one. Pickpocket deals with a man who struggles with balancing his thiefdom with his personal life, involving family, love and loss. Robert Bresson was one of the favorites of Cahiers du cinema and regarded as one of the first auteurs in European film history. His colleague Jean-Luc Godard once stated that “Robert Bresson is French cinema, as Dostoevsky is the Russian novel and Mozart is the German music.” A Man Escaped Un condamné à mort s’est échappé ou Le vent soufflé oú il veut France | 1956 | 99 min Featuring: François Leterrier, Charles Le Clainche, Maurice Beerblock It is 1943 in Lyon, France. Resistance fighter Fontaine is captured by the Nazis and brought to a prison full of other spies and Nazi-opponents. It is cold, Fontaine is malnourished and the sounds of executions of captives cut like knives through the prison walls. Fontaine’s only alternative to death is to plot for the most extraordinary escape in film history. Bresson’s magnum opus A Man Escaped earned the director his first Best Director-award at the Cannes Film Festival, and is considered the original prison break-feature – its impact is enormous and undeniable. 4 Campion, Jane The Piano New Zealand/Australia | 1993 | 121 min Featuring: Holly Hunter, Harvey Keitel, Anna Paquin, Sam Neill In the mid-nineteenth century, mute woman Ada leaves Scotland for New Zealand due to an arranged marriage, and with her is only her daughter Flora and her beloved piano. Life didn’t pan out as Ada would have wanted, and her boredom is turned into torment when her husband Stewart sells the piano to a despicable neighbor, George. Missing her piano, Ada gives George piano lessons and slowly grows fonder of him… Eight time Academy Award nominee (three wins) The Piano is one of the most highly regarded pieces of modern cinema, and marks the breakthrough of widely celebrated director Jane Campion. Cavani, Liliana The Night Porter Italy/USA | 1974 | 118 min Featuring: Charlotte Rampling, Dirk Bogarde, Philippe Leroy, Gabriele Ferzetti It has gone twelve years since the end of World War II when former SS officer Max and Holocaust survivor Lucia meet again. In the concentration camps, Max tormented Lucia, but also acted as her protector – as they also had a sexual relationship. Now, Max works as a night porter at a hotel. Lucia is married to an orchestra conductor. By chance they meet again, and while Max has spent his past years eliminating evidence of his crimes, Lucia as a first-hand witness is beyond elimination. Instead, they resume their sadomasochistic relations from past times. 5 Chaplin, Charles The Circus USA | 1928 | 72 min Featuring: Charles Chaplin, Alan Garcia, Merna Kennedy With a stolen wallet and watch in his pocket, a penniless and hungry tramp is mistaken for a pickpocket.
