At the close of the 19th Century, French Army Captain Alfred Dreyfus was convicted of treason, stripped of his rank in a humiliating ceremony and sentenced to life imprisonment on Devils Island. But upon further investigation by Colonel Georges Picquart (a powerful performance by Oscar-winner Richard Dreyfuss), a high-level conspiracy was uncovered that may have condemned an innocent man. For the next decade, Picquart would risk his career and his life to expose the truth behind The Dreyfus Affair, the shocking saga of anti-Semitism and treason that divided France, set the stage for the First World War and became one of the most notorious cases of criminal injustice in history.Oliver Reed (Gladiator) and Peter Firth (EQUUS) co-star in this acclaimed drama directed by Ken Russell and co-produced by Richard Dreyfuss that remains a startling story of racism, corruption and one man's relentless pursuit of honor.

Prisoner
- Two legendary actors at the height of their careers face off in a film so controversial that both the Cannes and Venice Film Festicals banned it. Following World War II, a strong-willed cardinal (Academy Award winner Alec Guinness, 1957 Best Actor, The Bridge Over River Kwai) is arrested as a traitor to the state. His will is strong, but so is that of his inquisitor (Jack Hawkins), a seemingly benevolent man who uses oily charm to lure the cardinal into speaking freely. The interrogator eventually resorts to false evidence, dirty tricks and cruelty. Months pass, and the cardinal's spirit seem impossible to break. As the interviews become increasingly hostile, the captors turn to the last bastion of the immorally powerful: torture. Eventually the cardinal is exploited and destroyed. A tale for all times, all beliefs, and once witnessed, impossible to forget. The Prisoner is a bold example of corruption, power and faith.
