Filmed in Colour

This dark futuristic thriller is a brutal, noisy, disturbing and dazzling whirlwind of a movie. Part sci-fi, part whodunit, it's set in LA on the eve of the new millennium. Ralph Fiennes (pictured, with Angela Bassett) plays ex-cop Lenny Nero, a black-market trader who deals in stolen dreams, especially sex and violence. Filmed on digital tape, the experiences can be replayed by buyers on a special headset - originally developed for the police - which makes them a participant. But things go wrong when a tape emerges showing a murder of a cop. Nero is plunged into a maze of paranoia and deception - and uncovers a conspiracy that threatens to blow LA apart.

Released in 1995, this tough and controversial film from director Kathryn Bigelow builds into a chilling vision of the future. Highly recommended.
