Another broad selection for our next meeting - there's so much great stuff on SBS I'm always spoilt for choice! Please watch as many of these movies as you can before we meet - they are all available to watch for free on SBS OnDemand.

3 Days in Quiberon
1981: One year before her death, famous actress Romy Schneider retreats to a spa hotel in the town of Quiberon, Brittany. Visited by her close friend Hilde, who has come to offer the support she needs to fight her own demons. But it is more than just the reunion of two old friends. When two journalists from the STERN arrive to conduct an interview, Hilde tries to shield her friend from their invasive interrogation tactics. For three days and nights, the interaction between the quartet ranges from sensitivity to brutal manipulation, an emotional roller coaster ride, by the end of which Romy seems more vulnerable than ever.

Don't Look Now
John and Laura Baxter are in Venice when they meet a pair of elderly sisters, one of whom claims to be psychic. She insists that she sees the spirit of the Baxters' daughter, who recently drowned. Laura is intrigued, but John resists the idea. He, however, seems to have his own psychic flashes, seeing their daughter walk the streets in her red cloak, as well as Laura and the sisters on a funeral gondola.

A Bronx Tale
Drama set in 1960s New York about an Italian American boy surrounded by conflicting influences while growing up in the Bronx. The boy's father is almost powerless to do anything when his son becomes increasingly corrupted by a neighbourhood gangster. The two father figures - one hard-working and loving, the other involved in dangerous, underworld activities - exert conflicting pressures and beliefs
