    1970 War: Kelly's Heroes

    "They set out to rob a bank...and damn near won a war instead!" Kelly's Heroes is surely one of the most loved and fondly remembered WWII movies. Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas and Donald Sutherland are on a mission to raid a bank vault full of gold bullion in German occupied France. And it turns out to be just as hard as that sounds.

    1970 Psycho Thrillers: The Man Who Haunted Himself

    You will live every shattering moment of terror with... The Man Who Haunted Himself. What's better than a film starring Roger Moore? A filming starring TWO Roger Moores obviously. Giving his personal favourite performance, Roger Moore is Harold Pelham, a man who survives a near fatal accident, only for his life to fall apart in the aftermath. Why do people claim to have seen him in places he couldn't possibly have been? Whose car parks outside his home when he's not there? Who is the real Harold Pelham? #rogermoore #hildegardneil # antonrodgers #olgageorgespicot #freddiejones #basildearden

    1970 Festive Family Fun: The Aristocats

    You may not think of this as a festive favourite, but Disney classic The Aristocats was released in December 1970 and makes a great family movie to kick off the Christmas season. When retired opera singer Madame Bonfamille decides to leave her riches to her beloved cats she unwittingly sparks a chain of events which result in pampered house cat Duchess and her three kittens having to find their way home through the French countryside and Parisian rooftops, with the help of rough around the edges alley cat, Thomas O'Malley. #disney #disneyfilms #disneystudios #thearistocats #philharris #evagabor

    1970 Psycho Thrillers: And Soon The Darkness (S1, Ep8)

    The year 1970 offered a few fun psychological thrillers, and the first one we're going to explore is And Soon The Darkness, brought to us by the team behind TV's The Avengers. Pamela Franklin and Michele Dotrice go on an ill-fated cycling holiday to France and wish they'd paid more attention in O Level French.
