History Boys (2007)
Richard Griffiths, Frances de la Tour
Directed by Nicholas Hytner d’après Alan Bennett
A class of undisciplined, smart and funny history students actively pursue an undergraduate place at Oxford or Cambridge. But the university admissions process is no small challenge, and it's uncertain how much help their teachers, each peculiar in their own mannner, can actually provide them with! The journey turns out to be as much about the mechanisms at work in education, than about where it can lead.
Rated UK : 15

Garage (2008)
A tragicomedy set in the world of gas stations in rural Ireland, where the misfit owner of the garage searches for intimacy during the course of a life-changing summer.
In the same spare style as their first award-winning film, 'Adam & Paul', director Lenny Abrahamson and writer Mark O'Halloran bring us 'Garage', a startling and hypnotic tragi-comedy from the margins of contemporary Irish life. Regarded by his neighbours as a harmless misfit, eliciting idle kindness, benign tolerance and occasional abuse, Josie has spent all his adult life as the caretaker of a crumbling petrol station on the outskirts of a small town in the mid-west of Ireland. He is limited, lonely, yet relentlessly optimistic and, in his own peculiar way, happy.
Rated UK : 18
