The Blues Brothers

After leaving prison, Jake Blues is taken by his brother Elwood to see Sister Mary Stigmata, who runs the Catholic orphenage where they were brought up. They have to collect five thousand dollars to save the institution, otherwise it will be sold to the education authority. The boys comes up with an answer: they will start up their band again to raise some money. But their charity mission turns out to be more than of an adventure than they could ever have imagined.

'Despite its excesses, this is an exquisitely realised film,'

'The mere spectacle of Elwood and Jake in their shades isn't quite as giggle-inducing as it presumably was back in 1980, but the stunts are still awe-inspiring, and there's plenty of laughs. They really were thinking big'

Character actor was big in the 80s...

Johnnie To and John Landis have joined the jury for the Venice Film Festival, which will kick off next month.

Best friends forever!
