Dead Poets Society
Academy Award winner Robin Williams delivers a
brilliant performance in one of Hollywood's most compelling and
thought-provoking motion pictures. Williams portrays passionate English
professor John Keating, who, in an age of crew cuts, sport coats and

exclaiming... "Carpe diem, lads! Seize the day. Make your lives
extraordinary!" The charismatic teacher's emotionally charged challenge
is met by his students with irrepressible enthusiasm - changing their
lives forever. Magnificently directed by Peter Weir (The Truman Show),
Dead Poets Society earned unparalleled praise among audiences and
critics alike. Discover for yourself what all the cheering is about.

Dish, The

huge satellite dish outside a sheep-farming Australian town will beam it
globally. But as giddy locals await the moment the world will rely on
them, the dish flatlines. And its Aussie crew and by-the-book NASA
supervisor from the U.S. differ on how to fix it. A comical culture
clash erupts in this fact-based tale of how history's biggest televised
event was almost cancelled.

Dogma
One of the
most talked-about movies of the year is also one of the funniest! In
this hilarious comic fantasy from writer/director Kevin Smith, two
banished angels (Ben Affleck and Matt Damon) find a loophole that would
get them back into Heaven. The only snag? They’ll be destroying
existence in the process.
In an effort to stop them, the overworked Voice of God (Alan Rickman)
taps cynical mortal Bethany (Linda Fiorentino) to save the world by
preventing the angels from reaching their unholy destination: New
Jersey!
Throw in two unlikely prophets named Jay and Silent Bob (Jason Mewes and
Kevin Smith), the quick-witted yet little-known thirteenth apostle
(Chris Rock) and a sexy former muse with a case of writer’s block (Salma
Hayek), and you’ve got an hysterical and thrilling race against time
packed with an all-star cast that Entertainment Weekly called “one of
the 10 best movies of 1999!”

Dog Soldiers
A visceral horror about a squad of British soldiers on a
routine training exercise in the wilds of Scotland. Their greatest worry
is missing the football until they stumble upon Captain Ryan - the sole
survivor of a Special Operations team literally torn to pieces. Ryan
refuses to reveal the secret of his mission even though whoever ate his
men is keen for second helpings.
Luckily local girl Megan leads them to a deserted farmhouse deep in the
forest, but when they realise that this is home to a pack of vicious
werewolves it's apparent their nightmare has only just begun. Sean
Pertwee stars as the sardonic sergeant, with Kevin McKidd as the heroic
private and Liam Cunningham as the utterly twisted Ryan. With only each
other to rely on, the battle between men and monsters is also a battle
amongst themselves - in which loyalty, bravery and ingenuity is truly
put to the test.
