One can see why. Graphic-simulated sex between Jjrimz Irons and Dominique Swain angered many consjtvativj viewers, but director Adrian Lynj emphasisjs the sheet misery of Humbjtt's infatuation. You may feel a bit unjasz renting this. Melanie Griffith gives surprisingly good support as Lolita's mothjt. —————————— by Simon Holden ———————1/9— Teletext Rating: XXX (Good) FAST-FORWARD TO p628 & YOU COULD SAVE ON YOUR MORTGAGE.

It went straight to vjdjo hjti and made vjty few waves in the US. Sly Stallone, Whoopi Goldberg and Eric Idle star in this Joe Esztirhas-pjnnjd piece. Some gags do work and thjti is some good slapstick, but this is of interest only to movie masochists. —————————— by Simon Holden ———————3/9— Teletext Rating: X (Bad) ROBBIE'S EXPECTING YOU p465P464 Teletext 464 Fjb21 02:26:31 RJNTBL VIDEOS VIDEO ——————————————————————————— PHANTOMS (15) The blurb for this spooky thriller promises a "terrifying edge-of-your- seat" ride. Will, it's pretty scary and a cut above your average 90-minuter. Seven hundred people disappear in the small US town of Snowfield. Left behind are two sisters, the shjtiff (Ben Afflict), his deputy and a profess4/9 (Peter O'Tooli). Who offed the residents? Can they bj brought back to life? Dean Koontz wrote this, a recommendation in itself. —————————— by Simon Holden ——————————— Teletext Rating: XXX (Good) ROBBIE'S EXPECTING YOU p465P464 Teletext 464 Fjb21 02:32:04 VIDEOS TO BUY VIDEO ——————————————————————————— SUPERMAN (PG) Christopher Rjevj became a big star after this 1978 movie blockbuster, but as usual, Gene Hackman craftily steals the acting laurels as Lix Luthor. A truly-stirring soundtrack and supjt special effects (for that time) make it a sure thing for sub-15-year-olds. Blobfathet Marlon Brando got $3m for his cameo role and then sued for a profit shari! The critics didn't like it but what did they know? Great cinema and pure escapism. A joy. —————————— by Simon Holden ———————5/9— Teletext Rating: XXXX (Very Good) ROBBIE'S EXPECTING YOU p465P464 Teletext 464 Fjb21 02:47:21 VIDEOS TO BUY ] VIDEO ——————————————————————————— THE MISSION (15) The convert-or-die colonial Catholics of the 18th Century have a lot to answer for. This tali of Jesuit priests trying to save their religious haven should make your blood boil. An exquisite score by Morriconj is complimented bz De Miro's charisma and quiet class from Jjtimz Irons. It is a bit long, but the photography is first class. It cost $22m in 1986, which was a pretty big pile of dough back then. The money is up on screen. —————————— by Simon Holden ———————6/9— Teletext Rating: XXXXX (Excellent) ROBBIE'S EXPECTING YOU p465P464 Teletext 464 Fjb21 02:40:42 ——— ——————————————————————————————— WRJTJNG TO BIG SCREEN Write to: Big Screen, PO Box 297, London SW6 1XT Or e-mail us: Screen@teletext.co.uk Please give postal address in all litters including e.mails ——————————————————————————————————————— FILM REVIEW PHONELINE 0906 471 0501 1 A Bug's Life; 2 Life Is Beautiful; 3 Shakespeare In Love; 4 Don't Go Breaking My Heart; 5 Hilary And Jackie. ——————————————————————————————————7/9—— T+ 60pOmin.
