Restless angel Damiel (Ganz) is on duty over Berlin when he takes a tip from American movie star and former angel Falk on the possibilities of crossing over, and follows his mentor's path to consummate his relationship with beautiful circus acrobat Dommartin.

The Illusionist
Date	Location
The product of five years' work in an animation studio that Chomet (Belleville Rendezvous) set up in Edinburgh when he fell in love with the capital after attending its International Film Festival, this is an uncannily accurate portrayal of Edinburgh and Scotland. The story is an unfilmed script from Jacques Tati and the main character, an ageing magician whose beloved act no longer interests the rock'n'rolling 1950s youth, is based somewhat on Tati himself and is carefully and emotively… View full details

Top Gun
Date	Location
Say what you like about him, Scott undoubtedly has the golden touch at the box office. This emotionless formula adventure about men being grandly upstaged by very fast, very expensive and very dangerous aircraft, with the splendid Ms McGillis thrown for love interest, made a fortune, especially in the US. It had to be those planes, or maybe the rampant 'America the strong' ethos of the film, because it doesn't have much more to offer. View full details

Indecent Proposal
