Often exploring themes
of addiction, sexual power games, and compulsive behavior,
Barbet Schroeder's 1983 film Tricheurs is a powerfully
impudent look into the world of some rather glamorous gambling
addicts. In yet another fascinating role, Bulle Ogier (Discreet
Charm of The Bourgeoisie, Maitresse) is cast among a stylish
milieu of gamblers on the Portuguese island of Madera. There
she becomes involved with a slick gamblers scheme to run the
roulette wheel. Tricheurs also features an appearance from
the film's cinematographer Robby Muller, long-time Jim Jarmusch
DOP and collaborator.

Lush, sensual, and
aurally hypnotic, this renowned cult classic from Barbet Schroeder
(Barfly, Reversal of Fortune, More, Maitresse) was
shot by the legendary Nestor Almendros, and scored by Pink
Floyd. Set in the rainforest of New Guinea, a restless diplomat's
wife, played by Bulle Ogier (Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie,
Maitresse), goes in search of a rare bird's priceless
feathers. In the process she meets up with a group of hippies
seeking spiritual and sexual enlightenment. Together they
are transformed when they encounter the indigenous Mapuga
tribesman and the secret "valley of the gods".

Billy
Liar
"One of the great
movies of the 1960's! Brilliant comedy! Pure ambrosia!"
—A.O. SCOTT, THE NEW YORK TIMES
Named one of the 100
Greatest British Films of the 20th century in a recent poll,
Billy Liar is a landmark of the early 60s "New Wave"
of British Cinema. In one of his most memorable performances,
Tom Courtenay (Doctor Zhivago, The Dresser) plays Billy
Fisher, a Walter Mitty-like daydreamer stuck in a dead end job
in a funerla parlor, but in his rich fantasy life he's everything
froma best-selling author to dictator of "Ambrosia."
Stringing along two fiancées and spinning lie after lie, Billy's
wish to escape his small town life becomes a possibility when
he meets Liz, a free-spirited icon of rebellion, played by the
dazzling Julie Christie (Doctor Zhivago, Darling in the
role that catapulted her to stardom.

 David
Mamet's Heist
is--not unlike many of his previous films--amusing, manicured,
and fraught with an awkward tension. If your customers have
seen The Spanish Prisoner or House of Games, they're by now
familiar with the plot-subverting gambit of the double-cross
turned triple- and then quadruple-cross. Heist sticks to the
formula, and it's selling!
