A personal choice by Barry Norman reflects on 1986's outstanding releases and chooses his ten favourite films. These are just some of the contenders: A Chorus Line, Jagged Edge, Out of Africa, Mona Lisa, Down and Out in Beverly Hills and Room With a View. Which would you choose?

He also picks out those awful moments from the movies and assesses the trends and tastes of the year.

continuing a series of acclaimed films introduced by Barry Norman.
Tonight starring Walter Pidgeon Anne Francis and Robby the Robot
AD 2200: a space cruiser lands on the planet Altair-4, apparently inhabited only by Dr Morbius, his daughter and their faithful servant Robby the Robot. But the planet has a deadly secret which the mysterious Morbius is very reluctant to reveal.... Based loosely on Shakespeare's The Tempest, this influential classic has left its mark on many later science fiction films.
