Films I really like that I want more people to see

By: Eleni Ashton

I like these films. Some of them are by well known directors or star well known actors, even written by celebrated screenwriters (‘Marty’ anyone?) and yet don’t have many fans. If it’s availability stopping you from watching any of them message me and I may be able to point you in the right direction, internet wise.
