Villain [DVD]
5.  Villain [DVD] DVD ~ Richard Burton

Gumshoe [DVD]
7.  Gumshoe [DVD] 
The list author says:
  "Should be a slight film this, given the fairly whimsical idea, but this movie is anything but slight, it is a minor classic. And that's all down to the best in British acting and great directing."

8.  Prime of Miss Jean Brodie [DVD] [1969] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] DVD ~ Maggie Smith
The list author says:
  "A captivating movie that really pulls you in to its rather hammy story. Smith takes this roll in both hands and gives it everything, maybe even a bit too much, for some."
