Film Synopsis

Clodo the dog may look like a tramp, with his long scruffy hair, but he has a heart of gold, not that his present owners, a Parisian couple, appreciate that.  Abandoned by his owners at the start of their holidays, Clodo soon finds a new friend in Fabien, a young farm worker.  The latter thinks only of Arlène, the childhood friend who has become the object of his affection, but she is far away, studying in Paris.  Fabien's hopes are revived when Arlène makes an unexpected return...

The very best of German cinema
sb-img-25
German cinema was at its most inspired in the 1920s, strongly influenced by the expressionist movement, but it enjoyed a renaissance in the 1970s.
The best of Japanese cinema
sb-img-21
The cinema of Japan is noteworthy for its purity, subtlety and visual impact. The films of Ozu, Mizoguchi and Kurosawa are sublime masterpieces of film poetry.
The greatest French Films of all time
sb-img-4
With so many great films to choose from, it's nigh on impossible to compile a short-list of the best 15 French films of all time - but here's our feeble attempt to do just that.
The best French Films of the 1910s
sb-img-2
In the 1910s, French cinema led the way with a new industry which actively encouraged innovation. From the serials of Louis Feuillade to the first auteur pieces of Abel Gance, this decade is rich in cinematic marvels.
The best of British film comedies
sb-img-15
British cinema excels in comedy, from the genius of Will Hay to the camp lunacy of the Carry Ons.
