From an Oscar-Winning Film To a Coming-of-Age Tale: DVD Picks of the Week

Ben Affleck or Chris O'Dowd - if that's not a difficult choice to make we don't know what is!

Rebecca McKnight

Two of our favourite men are available to rent this week… well their films are available to rent anyway.

If you feel like:

Being glued to the edge of your seat

Argo (15) – Ben Affleck’s Oscar-winning political drama is based on the real-life event of the 1979 Iran hostage crisis during which 52 Americans were taken by militants in Tehran.

Having a right old chuckle

The Sapphires (PG) – Chris O’Dowd stars in this musical comedy as an Irish manager called Dave Lovelace who wants to help a female soul group achieve their dreams.

 

Watching something a little quirky

Perks of Being a Wallflower (15) – In this coming-of-age tale a shy teen called Charlie (Logan Lerman) is exposed to a number of new experiences when he makes friends with Patrick (Ezra Miller) and his stepsister Sam (Emma Watson).
