D-TOX 2002
Sylvester Stallone stars as an alcoholic FBI agent sent to an isolated rehab clinic in this gory, clapped-out thriller from the director of I Know What You Did Last Summer
Dam Busters, The 1955
Chocs away for a stirring tale of wartime heroics as the RAF hit the enemy where it hurts. Renowned as a genre classic, it's not actually any good.
Dances With Wolves 1990
Actor-director Kevin Costner's seven-Oscar winning moment of greatness
Dark Days 2000
A startling anthropological documentary about a shantytown hidden in the dank bowels of Manhattan's subway system. This Sundance Audience Award winner is beautiful in both spirit and looks

Day The Earth Stood Still, The 1951
A reasoned plea for peace in the face of the escalating Cold War. The high-water mark of 50s science fiction cinema
Day of the Dead 1985
Zombie master George A Romero rounds off his classic trilogy with a typically understated gore fest
Day of the Triffids, The 1962
Dreadful special effects, a ludicrous premise and hammy acting make this cult sci-fi classic terrific entertainment
Days of Heaven 1978
"Your eyes... Your ears... Your senses... will be overwhelmed" says the tagline and for once, you can believe it. Terrence Malick's beautifully filmed ode to rural America stars the ravishing Richard Gere and Brooke Adams
Dead Man's Curve 1997
Pitch-black comedy that takes an urban myth about student suicide and blows it up into a bilious - and hilarious - satire on the youth of today
Dead Or Alive 2: Birds 2000
Prolific Japanese filmmaker Takashi Miike returns with a surprisingly meditative sequel to his Yakuza masterpiece. Moving, exciting, unexpected and innovative
Dead Reckoning 1947
Humphrey Bogart's army officer goes civilian to track down his friend's killer in this moody but none-too-original film noir set in the lush surroundings of America's Gulf Coast
Death Of A Salesman 1985
High quality TV adaptation of Arthur Miller's classic play with an impeccable performance from Dustin Hoffman as the tragic salesman disenchanted with the American dream. A melancholy, intelligent damning of capitalism
Deep End, The 2001
A mother goes to extreme lengths to protect her son after his gay lover dies in suspicious circumstances. An atypical thriller starring Tilda Swinton and Gorna Visnjic
Deep In The Woods 2000
A troupe of five young actors are hired to perform at a remote chateau for Baron Axel De Ferson. But with a madman on the loose, things soon get bloody

Dekalog, The 1988
Based on the Ten Commandments, ten contemporary stories of love, loss, betrayal, heartbreak and redemption on a Warsaw housing estate from modern cinema's most incisive and unassuming auteur. An absolute must for any self-respecting cinephile
Delicatessen 1990
Surreal post-apocalyptic black comedy from Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro. Inventive in design, insane in plotting it's a latter day French minor classic
Delius; Song Of Summer 1968
Russell's angular, early drama-'documentary' explores the extraordinary relationship between shy Yorkshireman Eric Fenby and composer Frederick Delius - his renowned, dying mentor
Diaboliques, Les 1955
Clouzot's tense double-reverse plot thriller. An atmospheric and wonderfully seedy tale of love, hate and death. So good that Hitchcock himself took lessons from it
Die Another Day 2002
Man in tuxedo blows up enemy lair, wins girl, makes bad jokes. No surprises in the 20th Bond then - apart from the fact that it's very entertaining
Die Hard 1988
Bruce Willis lets loose a torrent of bullets, one liners and macho sweat in this shamefully entertaining brawn over brains thriller. Alan Rickman glowers, moodily
Die Hard With A Vengeance 1995
The third film in the Die Hard series sees the plot looking rusty and the jokes wearing almost as thin as Willis' hair. Still, it's worth watching for the action sequences and Samuel L Jackson's performance
Dinner Rush 2001
Superb family mob story with distinct culinary-inclinations. In the course of one busy night an ageing bookmaker and restaurateur played by Danny Aiello fields the demands of customers, family and upstart mobsters
Dirty Dancing 1987
Set in the 60s, but lodged in the 80s this was the film to watch if you wore pink leg-warmers, owned a complete set of My Little Ponies and had a crush on Morten from A-Ha. For everybody else though, it was, and remains, meaningless drivel
Dirty Harry 1971
Legendary - and much imitated - police thriller that turned Clint Eastwood into a superstar. The politics are debatable but no one can deny it's an action classic
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels 1988
Odd couple comedy caper starring Michael Caine and Steve Martin. Critically maligned upon it's release, but entertaining enough and occasionally genuinely funny
Disco Pigs 2001
An outstanding teen drama about inseparable friends whose relationship is threatened by the onset of adulthood. Expertly written, acted and directed - and mercifully cliché free
Dish, The 2000
G'day, Houston! Based on a true story, The Dish follows the events behind the Apollo XI moon mission in July 1969 and the extraordinary role that Australia played in proceedings
Divided We Fall 2000
The fine line between heroism and cowardice is amusingly explored in this black comedy about the experiences of an Czech Gentile couple who protect a Jew during World War Two
Doctor Zhivago 1965
Laborious, but beautifully crafted 193 minute opus from the master of epic cinema, David Lean. A turbulent love story set against the fiery backdrop of the Bolshevik revolution
Dog Days 2001
A bleak and disturbing portrait of life in the suburbs of Vienna, Ulrich Seidl's film offers real rewards for those who can brave its misanthropic vision
Dog Eat Dog 2001
Knockabout British comedy about a group of young DJs who have trouble achieving their dreams, featuring cameos from numerous celebrities including Alan Davies, Melanie Blatt, Gary Kemp and Ricky Gervais
Dog Soldiers 2001
A derivative but fun British horror movie about a bunch of soldiers besieged by slavering werewolves. Trainspotting alumnus Kevin McKidd makes a surprisingly effective action hero
Dogma 1999
The apocalypse as anticipated by high Catholicism comes to 90s New Jersey mall culture. And makes a few fundamentalists bridle
Don't Look Now 1973
Chilling but moving classic of British cinema. Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland star as a couple who move to Venice after the death of their daughter, only to encounter forebodings of death amid its dank off-season canals
Don't Say A Word 2001
Hitchcock style psychological thriller revolving around a doctor, a kidnapper and a mental patient whose troubled mind holds the secret location of a million-dollar diamond
Donnie Darko 2001
An astonishingly imaginative, poignant, genre-defying tale of teen love, insanity and time travel. The feature debut of US filmmaker Richard Kelly, starring upcoming talent Jake Gyllenhaal
Doors, The 1991
Val Kilmer impersonates self-destructive rock 'n' roller Jim Morrison in this biopic from Oliver Stone
Drôle De Félix 2000

High cynical satire from Stanley Kubrick, with Peter Sellers, playing three key protagonists in the end of the world, George C Scott and Sterling Hayden
Dracula 2001 2000
When a gang of high-tech thieves crack a London vault they accidentally awaken the legendary Count Dracula. Anaemic bloodsucking horror comedy flattered by Wes 'Scream' Craven's name above the title
Dragnet 1987
A critically reviled box office bomb that attempted to recreate the glories of the cult 50s TV series but ended up insulting its memory. Dan Ackroyd gives a passable - if fat - performance, however
Dragonfly 2002
He sees dead people. Kevin Costner stars in a derivative supernatural thriller about a man trying to make contact with his deceased wife
Drugstore Cowboy 1989
Matt Dillon is at his best in this dark West Coast road-movie as a 70s dropout sick of the numbing romance of the junkie lifestyle. Gus van Sant's unmoralistic film includes an appearance by drugs guru William Burroughs and a sublime portrayal of innocence from Heather Graham
Dude, Where's My Car? 2000
Brainless drug buddy caper. The comedy's a bit caned, the plot's positively trippy and everything keeps on repeating and repeating and repeating
Duel in the Sun 1946
Lust in the dust. Producer David O Selznick's massively ambitious attempt to outdo Gone With The Wind is a beautiful, gaudy, big-budget feast
Dumbo 1941
A glowing spectacular from Disney's golden age. A circus elephant is cruelly mocked for his huge ears until he realises that his immense lobes enable him to fly - and he becomes the greatest show on earth
Dune 1984
"A world beyond your experience, beyond your imagination". David Lynch's epic adaptation of Frank Herbert's sci-fi best seller
Dungeons & Dragons 2000
Disjointed slice of sword and sorcery that mixes sets, CGI and locations to create a fantasy world populated by actors hamming their way toward an epic climax
