Eastern Promises (18)
HE'S got little chance of beating Daniel-Day Lewis to tomorrow's best actor Oscar, but don't miss fellow nominee Viggo Mortensen here. Especially as the script, about London's deadly Russian underworld, was written by Birmingham's own Steven Knight for back-on-form Canadian director David Cronenberg. The bathhouse fight sequence, featuring a stark-naked Mortensen, was one of the most astonishing cinematic highlights of 2007. Co-starring Naomi Watts, Vincent Cassel and Armin Mueller-Stahl and also available to buy for £19.99 (Blu-ray £24.99), the extras include a 'Secrets and Stories' featurette.
