They will both be released in fully restored versions on DVD on 17 August 2015.
JET STORM
When Ernest Tilley’s (Attenborough) daughter is killed in a hit-and-run, he vows to do whatever it takes to avenge her death. Armed with a homemade bomb, he tracks down the killer to an airport and boards the same flight. Once in the air, he threatens to blow up the place. Emotions run high among the passengers as they confront the reality of the situation and soon, drama and secrets spill as they are forced to take stock of their lives. Can Ernest, a man who has nothing to lose, be stopped in time?

When Dave runs into money troubles with the mob boss, and is found dead in the back of Ted’s taxi, suspicions fly as Scotland Yard investigate the murder. The police suspect Dave’s underworld connections, the mob suspects that Ted knows their guilt, and Ted himself suspects who the real killer might be…

SYNOPSIS
Madame Bovary is een nieuwe adaptatie van het beroemde boek van Gustave Flaubert.
Emma is een naïef boerenmeisje en haar romantisch verlangen is gevoed door alle romans die ze in haar jeugd heeft gelezen. Ze weet aan het boerenmilieu, waarin ze is opgegroeid, te ontsnappen door te trouwen met plattelandsdokter Charles Bovary. Na de bruiloft gaat ze met hem mee naar het kleine Franse dorp waar Charles zijn praktijk heeft. Emma probeert een goede vrouw te zijn, maar het verlangen naar een groots en meeslepend leven blijft. Charles lijkt te simpel om haar te geven wat ze wil. Dan ontmoet ze Leon, die net als zij weinig uitdaging vindt in het plattelandsleven. Zijn liefde vlamt op, maar Emma wenst die niet te beantwoorden. Als de Marquis D’Andervilliers op het toneel verschijnt en haar uitnodigt voor een jachtpartij op zijn landgoed, gaat er een hele nieuwe wereld voor Emma open…

The heroes of the 80s are back with an 11-track-album this fall!
'Music Complete'.... a perfect ballance between synths and guitars, well-known styles and innovative experiments. Here’s a tiny teaser: https://vimeo.com/131209570
Ego Likeness, the long running musical project of artist Steven Archer and writer Donna Lynch, presents the long awaited new album "When The Wolves Return". The duo blends powerful female vocals with elements of electronica, darkwave, trip hop, and rock. In the time between Breedless and When The Wolves Return, Donna and Steven faced a series of personal battles... sickness. Deaths. Personal demons. The couple found themselves in dark places. The resultant years of struggle tribulations, and eventual triumph are all represented in When The Wolves Return As Donna says, "You will hear all of this on it. Not in specific words, but it's all there, in metaphor. It is the hardest thing I've had to write yet, lyrically." The album is, at its core, an artistic act of emotional self-evisceration. It is the product of pain felt and caused. Of suffering and loss and chaos and desperation. It is a confessional; it is words and sounds that have come from fighting back, and from the growth to understand that the Wolves are still out there. The album is beautiful and it is at times heart shattering. It is also a glorious testament to survival and strength.
