THE DUCHESS(2009)
With unashamed parallels with Lady Di, this stylish film tells the story of The Duchess of Devonshire, a royal lady popular with her subjects, but stuck in a restrictive and unhappy marriage with a man who thinks only of women as brood mares. A film of self-discovery and redemption.
(Keira Knightly, Ralph Fiennes and Charlotte Rampling).

THE AFRICAN QUEEN(1951)
This John Huston classic is set in Africa during WWI garnered Humphrey Bogart an oscar for his role as a hard-drinking riverboat captain who provides passage for a missionary spinster. Despite their mutual dislike they manage to achieve spectacular results.
(Humphrey Bogart and Katharine Hepburn).

THE TAMING OF THE SHREW(1967)
Franco Zeffirelli's production had all the ingredients to make it a high-point in Shakespearian cinema. It starred the most bankable couple in Hollywood history in the Bard`s quick-firing and tumultuous comic battle of the sexes.
(Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor).
