The meeting changed his life forever. Truckdriver, milkman and aspiring musician Melvin Dummar (Golden Globe-winner Paul Le Mat, American History X) has been down on his luck for what feels like his entire life. He can't keep a job. His wife is threatening to divorce him. And, try as he may, he can't write a hit song. Driving along the highway late one night, he spots an injured stranger on the side of the road. He offers the man a ride anywhere he'd like and the stranger asks to go to Las Vegas. Melvin obliges the man, and they wind up becoming fast friends. Just before he gets out of the car, the man reveals his identity: Howard Hughes (Oscar-winner Jason Robards, All the President's Men). While Melvin has reasons to doubt the man, big news comes on the day of Hughes' deathnews that, if true, will give Melvin the life he's always dreamed of Directed by Oscar-winner Jonathan Demme (Silence of the Lambs) and written by two-time Oscar and Golden Globe-winner Bo Goldman (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest), Melvin and Howard is one of the sharpest, funniest films you'll ever see.

  The morning of 6 August 1945 saw the dawn of the atomic age as the bomb which devastated the Japanese city of Hiroshima demonstrated to the world the awful truth of this 'weapon to end all weapons'. Using archive footage this documentary reconstructs the events of that day and traces the military developments which informed the decision to unleash the first weapon of mass destruction upon a largely civilian population. It is followed by a discussion of the main issues by Ludovic Kennedy and Group Captain Leonard Cheshire who acted as an observer with the American forces during the bombings of both Hiroshima and Nagasaki; renowned for his charitable work and efforts in the arena of conflict resolution Baron Cheshire talks candidly here about his personal response regarding the decision to use the bomb. First shown in 1965 the original 26-minute version of Date With History: Hiroshima is available here in a brand-new transfer from original film elements. Also featured is the 1995 re-edit entitled A Date With History which expands the documentary to 55 minutes and elaborates significantly on the 1965 original.

  Based on the true story of Melvin Dummar (Paul Le Mat) an affable all-American loser whose miserable luck changes when he gives a ride to the eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes (superbly played by Jason Robards). Melvin is a nice guy but to be honest he doesn't have much luck in life. He's impractical and although not unemployable finds it incredibly difficult to hold down a job. One night by chance though Melvin comes across a stranger in the desert who has suffered a motorcycle accident. To Melvin's amusement the old - and seemingly insane - man claims to be Howard Hughes the eccentric millionaire. After helping the old man Melvin thinks no more of the instance and continues about his dreary existance ; that is until a few years later when Melvin receives a letter informing him he has inherited an eighth of a one Howard Hughes' estate the small matter of 0 million dollars... Without doubt one of the best films of the 80s winner of 2 Oscars in 1981.
