Gustav Klimt’s famous painting of an Austrian woman was looted by the Nazi’s when they took over Vienna and scattered the woman’s Jewish descendants.

81⁄2 (12A) Dir: Federico Fellini Italy 1963 2hrs 18mins Subtitled With: Marcello Mastroianni, Anouk Aimée, Claudia Cardinale
Unarguably one of the greatest films ever made Fellini’s vision of the heaven and hell life of a fictional film director might be over 50 years old but it still packs a punch that flattens most modern movies. A diamond in the crown jewels of cinema.
