In the apartheid-era of South Africa, schoolteacher Ben du Toit (Donald Sutherland) lives with his wife and two children, wilfully naive to the racism and injustice in his country. That is until the son of his gardener is beaten and killed by white police officers in the aftermath of a protest for better education for Black children. This devastating event forces du Toit's to open his eyes and emboldens him to finally stand up and take action, seeking the help of human rights lawyer Ian McKenzie (Marlon Brando), an isolating endeavour that will change the lives of du Toit and his family forever. With a superb cast including Donald Sutherland, Zakes Mokae, Susan Sarandon, and Marlon Brandon in an Oscar-nominated supporting performance, Euzhan Palcy's A Dry White Season is a thrilling and ferocious portrayal of atrocity and discrimination.

The first part of Francis Ford Coppola's multi-Oscar winning Godfather trilogy adapted from Mario Puzo's novel examining the workings of the Mafia from the perspective of one family is (along with the sequel) Hollywood's greatest cinematic achievement since the Second World War. With a cast of relative unknowns at the time: Al Pacino (Godfather part II & III Scarface Heat Carlito's Way Donnie Brasco) James Caan (Mickey Blue Eyes Misery) Robert Duvall (Godfather Part II Apocalypse Now) and Diane Keaton (Manhattan Annie Hall) and a known risk: Marlon Brando (A Streetcar Named Desire On the Waterfront) Coppola managed to construct a masterpiece that perfectly depicted the Mafia lifestyle without glamorising it. The rise of the young Michael Corleone who is slowly forced to take control of the 'family business' is a powerful and terrifying study of moral decay political corruption and the breakdown of the family unit. Pacino gives a performance that literally sucks the audience in and slowly reveals the personal horror of the American-dream gone bad. From the opening wedding scene to a severed horse's head in a Hollywood movie-mogul's bed and exile in peasant Sicily the arc of the film is as grand beautiful and dramatic as an opera. The exquisitely designed scenes haunting musical score and superlative cast cement The Godfather in film history as one of the greatest films ever made. For evident reason The Godfather won several awards including three Oscars for Best Picture Best Screenplay and Best Actor (Marlon Brando) nominated for 8 more; one BAFTA nominated for four more; and five Golden Globes nominated for two more.
