Anna Karenina

starring Ben Johnson Ward Bond
The Ford season continues with this superb evocation of the pioneering West.
In 1879 a Mormon wagon-train heads westward to establish new settlements on the Utah-Arizona border. The leader persuades two footloose young horse-traders to guide them across the vast expanse of desert plain and mountain range which separates them from their destination. En route they encounter travelling entertainers, fugitive gunfighters and Indians ...

A series of 13 programmes Written and presented by Robert Kee 9: Terror
In 1918 Sinn Fein, pledged to an independent Irish Republic, won a sweeping victory at the first British general election since the war. Irish nationalists set up a parliament of their own in Dublin. The scene was set for violent confrontation between the British forces of law and order and the newly created Irish Republican Army, directed by Michael Collins. Terror, as participants on both sides now recount, was answered by counter terror. By 1920 Ireland had become a grim battleground. Reinforcements for the police were provided by the Black and Tans and Auxiliaries. By 1921 British public opinion, the IRA and the British Army were equally exhausted and a truce was signed.

Starring Stephane Audran, Michel Bouquet, Michel Duchaussoy

Charles, a prosperous insurance broker with a beautiful wife, is well pleased with his life. Its impeccably ordered routine is for him the essence of happiness and success. So it comes as something of a shock when he realises that his wife is stepping out of the pattern and into a secret life of her own.
Claude Chabrol 's minutely observed pictures of the French bourgeoisie, balancing ritual against passion, makes domestic murder a totally credible and comprehensible act.

starring Montgomery Clift Anne Baxter with Karl Maiden Brian Aherne
After the brutal murder of a Quebec lawyer, young Fr Michael finds himself under suspicion. Only the sanctity of the confessional prevents him from revealing the real murderer's identity. Hitchcock's 'transference of guilt' theme is given a new twist here. The absolute concept of the confessional makes the priest an unwitting party to the crime.
