| Betty Blue is a beautiful 1980s french film about a couple's passionate, unpredictable relationship. Beatrice Dalle paints an envyingly dazzling portrait of the wild Betty, whose covetable 50s style wardrobe is worn with typically french nonchalance throughout. Although rather long-winded, the film is full of gorgeously stylish shots; a must see! |

| Fifty years on and Jean-Luc Godard's 1960s New Wave cult 'A Woman is a Woman' still seems entirely chic and current. Anna Karina charms as Angela, a french striptease artist and all-round 60s siren, whilst the beautiful Jean-Claude Brialy plays Angela's boyfriend, who is reluctant to have a child with her. The couple's Parisian apartment is a hipster's paradise, filled with fixies and contemporary curio. |

| Quadrophenia encapsulates the energy of the mod scene that emerged with bravado during the 60s. Phil Daniels (Eastenders, anyone?!) plays Jimmy, an angsty teen who, on his sharp Lambretta, escapes his conformist life in search of freedom. The film features a great soundtrack by The Who, as well an appearance from Sting; you couldn't ask for much more, really... |
