## Customer Reviews

### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Uncompelling...
  

*by A***L on Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2018*

We very much like short films but this is the first time that we viewed short films in a compilation and didn't find any of them to be interesting or entertaining. Some big name directors here but we found none of the work to be compelling.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great Ridley Scott film of Hartlepool
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 19, 2013*

We bought this series of short films because of the Ridley Scott film of Hartlepool that shows a bygone age and had first seen this on the internet.The film is so much better with clear images and an option to view with Ridley commentating now on his first venture into film.The other films on the DVD are an added bonus but are not what we bought it for.This is a must for those who want to see Hartlepool in the not too distant past.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A mixed bag, but generally quite fascinating
  

*by D***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 8, 2003*

This collection of sixteen short films by acclaimed British directors is a little difficult to rate. Two or three of the films are brilliant, showing early promise of genius in directors who went on to massive success. Some of the films are, on the other hand, quite tedious. There seems to be a common theme through many of them (pubescence / single-parent family / gritty Northern realism) which unfortunately lowers their impact. And one or two films are "ars gratia artis"; whether these appeal at all is down to the taste of the viewer.The collection as a whole is full of surprises - mostly at what can be achieved on a low budget or the depth of storytelling possible in a short space of time. Ridley Scott's 1958 16mm black & white film is pretty good given the resources available, but hasn't really stood the test of time very well. On the other hand, Jim Gillespie manages to create a highly polished short horror that perhaps manages to capture a more genuine sense of menace than did his feature I Know What You Did Last Summer.There are a couple of really outstanding films on this disc, including Simon Ellis' inventive expose of truth and lies in relationships. Another brilliant work is Christopher Nolan's borderline genius horror which, given the credit given to University College London Film Society, bodes very well indeed for student filmmaking in this country. Let's hope that this DVD acts as a catalyst to the British film industry.One final warning, however - because this disc is "for educational use only", it has no BBFC certificate. In my opinion, an appropriate classification for this disc would be 15, with some strong language, sexual references and violence.
