In 1977 NASA launched the probe Voyager 2 into space, inviting all lifeforms in the Universe to visit Earth. Well get ready, as company's a comin'. John Carpenter's road movie tells of one such alien taking the form of a young widow's husband, before asking her to drive him across America.

Jeff Bridges in the title role gives an Academy Award nominated performance alongside national treasure Karen Allen. The two together embark on a race against time with the Federal Government hot on their trail. Carpenter's skilful direction results in a beguiling piece of science-fiction.

This finest retelling of Charles Dickens’ novella, has become a Christmas classic. Michael Caine’s lead performance as the lovable old skinflint, is ably supported by all your furry favourite Muppet characters. The Great Gonzo in particular stands out for his narration of the story as Dickens himself.

Caine said "I'm going to play this movie like I'm working with the Royal Shakespeare Company" and it shows superbly. The rousing score was composed by Miles Goodman with songs by Paul Williams. Toast the season with a glass of mulled wine and revel in the Dickensian dress code option.
