![]() | A Hard Day's Night
Buy new: $11.49 / Used from: $5.55 This is the most artistic, best known, and most critically-acclaimed film in this category, about four Liverpool fish, not out of water, but trapped in their London glass bowl.

![]() | To Sir, With Love
Buy used from: $43.28 Viewing inspires some young adults to teach school as strongly as "To Kill a Mockingbird" inspires others to study law.

![]() | Georgy Girl
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $3.87 This one is for the "birds." Or a "chick flick" for the girls who stay in. Moral: even though you don't wear fashionable, skinny miniskirts or stay out all night dancing to R&B between modelling gigs like your empty, self-involved friend, you still CAN have it all.

![]() | The Knack... and How to Get It
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $5.46 You'll never "get it" after only one viewing. Trust me. Region 1 viewers don't be shy about using subtitles.

![]() | Smashing Time
Buy used from: $36.00 Patiently wait out the silent film-type slapstick of the first half of to get to the satirical second half. "Smashing Time" is a well-conceived spoof of class differences and disposable teen pop music, fashion and culture that still applies today. And notice who moves her "jewels" off her hi-fi to spin Yvonne's very tasty hit!

![]() | Alfie
Buy new: $9.98 / Used from: $1.90 Alfie exhibits the narcissistic behavior that ironically along with drug abuse, fueled the best work of the London creative class. The story is dark but not London-specific.

![]() | Bedazzled
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $10.49 Stylized comedy sketches unified under theme of receiving seven earthly wishes from the devil in exchange for our soul. Educated classes are favored targets. Youth culture is skewered by teen idol sketch. Cook: above the fray, deadpan wit ("Fickle, your pop fans"). Moore: naive, tenderhearted buffoon. Together: perfect.

![]() | Blow Up
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $9.98 One of the main themes of this story is illustrated by how hard the man who catches the prized souvenir at the Yardbirds show fights for it and what he does with it once he gets away from the hype. The other? Things aren't always what they seem. Or are they? Are we for re - - ...?
