'The Witches' (1990)
The big screen adaptation of Roald Dahl’s 1993 novel of the same name was not a box office smash. However the performance of Anjelica Huston along with the excellent work of Jim Henson’s creature shop made it a hit with critics and later audiences. Variety said of the movie,”The wizardry of Jim Henson's Creature Shop and a superbly over-the-top performance by Angelica Huston gives The Witches a good deal of charm and enjoyment.”



Bob Roberts (1992)
Tim Robbin’s political satire lampooned right-wing American politicians and marked the actor’s directorial debut. The character was first played by Robbins on 'Saturday Night Live' on 1986. It was best described by Todd McCarthy in Variety as “A sort of political This Is Spinal Tap, Bob Roberts is both a stimulating social satire and, for thinking people, a depressing commentary on the devolution of the American political system." 



'The Crying Game' (1992)
This film about an IRA soldier was nominated for 6 Academy Awards, winning Best Original screenplay for Neil Jordan who also directed. It received critical acclaim with Barry McIlheney of Empire Magazine calling it a"finely-acted, sensitively-written tale".



'Before Sunrise' (1995)
Ethan Hawke and Julie Deply star in this simple romantic drama following an American man and a French woman who meet on a train and spent the rest of the night walking around Vienna and getting to know each other.

Toy Story (1996)
Woody and Buzz’s first outing was critically acclaimed as well as being a box office smash.The film became an instant classic for both children and adults a like. Time Out critic Derek Adams described it as  “So ingenious in concept, design and execution that you could watch it on a postage stamp-sized screen and still be engulfed by its charm”, after its 3-D re-release.



Toy Story 2 (1999)
The sequel to 'Toy Story' also managed a 100% fresh rating with critics finding it equal to the first instalment. Fans would have to wait another 11 years for the third 'Toy Story' instalment which narrowly misses out on an 100% fresh rating, getting a 99% instead.

'Sound City' (2013)
Foo fighter’s Dave Grohl tells the story of  Sound City Studios in Los Angeles which has played host to artists such as Fleetwood Mac, Nirvana and Neil Young. Peter Travers of Rolling Stone said of Grohl, “In his directing debut, Dave Grohl shows the instincts of a real filmmaker. 'Sound City' hits you like a shot in the heart.”
