Uplifting and intimate look at the last days of an elderly cancer victim. The film is even more relevant as it was written specifically for the lead actress, Sheila Florance, who was in fact dying of cancer as she created what is essentially a self-portrait.

En quête de popularité, le vampire Lestat s'initie à la musique rock et devient le chanteur d'un groupe underground. La raison de son succès : son allure et ses manières de vampire. Nuit après nuit, des groupies se pressent dans sa somptueuse demeure, lui fournissant en abondance le sang frais nécessaire à sa survie. Au cours de sa fulgurante ascension, Lestat fait la rencontre de Jesse Reeves, une étudiante anglaise, nièce de la vampire Maharet. Fragile, désorientée, la jeune fille s'offre à Lestat et demande à être initiée par lui. Mais pour la première fois, celui-ci se refuse à profiter d'une innocente. En rompant avec la traditionnelle discrétion des vampires, Lestat s'attire la haine de Marius, son ancien maître, et réveille la soif de pouvoir de la reine Akasha, qui décide d'en faire son compagnon.

Un cri dans la nuit

Nov 03, 1988
Inspiré d'un drame réel qui eut lieu dans l'outback australien en 1980, "Un cri dans la nuit" raconte l'histoire d'une mère accusée d'infanticide, son bébé ayant disparu, alors qu'elle campait, enlevé, d'après sa version, par un dingo, chien sauvage australien. Ce film pose surtout le problème de la presse à grand tirage du monde entier qui fait son miel de ce genre d'anecdote quelles qu'en soient les conséquences pour les protagonistes innocents ou coupables.

It was initially a 1985 mini-series based in the fictional outback town of Cooper's Crossing starring Andrew McFarlane as the newly arrived Dr. Tom Callaghan.

The series' episodes were mostly self-contained but also featured ongoing storylines, such as Dr. Standish's romance with Sister Kate Wellings. Other major characters included pilot Sam Patterson, mechanic Emma Plimpton, local policeman Sgt. Jack Carruthers and Vic and Nancy Buckley, who ran the local pub/hotel, The Majestic.

Bodyline

Mar 19, 1984
Dramatization of the 1932/33 Test cricket series between England and Australia. Played in Australia, the series gained notoriety in Australian and worldwide cricketing history for the fact that the English team (headed by captain Douglas Jardine) applied a bowling technique called "leg theory", or more commonly, Bodyline. This technique involved bowlers bowling the ball directly at the batsman's body, and resulted in many of the Australian team receiving numerous bruises and injuries, with batsman Bert Oldfield sustaining a cracked skull. The series generated much anger and resentment towards the English team within Australia and seriously damaged Anglo-Australian cricketing relations at the time.
