We’re all massive film fans at Slightly Different, with our own in-house DVD library stretching to thousands of movies which is one perk of being part of the SD team. Aside from the fact that most of Rob’s collection seems to be sub-titled obscure foreign classics, we’ve got films from Cagney to Clooney and pretty much everything in between. Indeed, we’re such big film fans that one of our team is even on the management committee for our local cinema! We’re still waiting for the free tickets, Nic.

There’s a whole host of the old black and white classics on here, and now that we’re in for some rainy weekends you’ve got no excuse to not make your own popcorn, put your feet up, and have your own Saturday afternoon picture show with classics such as Flash Gordon Conquers The Universe Chapter 3 (Flash, Dale, and Zarkov return to Planet Mongo to find an antidote for the Purple Death), the Hitchcock classic The 39 Steps with Robert Donat as Richard Hannay, or if you’re looking for something a bit more modern how about the comedy western McClintock starring John Wayne, or The Snows Of Kilimanjaro with Gregory Peck. They don’t make them like that any more.
