Here are some good films on YouTube that are otherwise difficult to find.
1.
Powell and Pressburger, 49th Parallel
A WW2 propaganda movie that had one task: to convince America to join the Allies by highlighting the vulnerability of the Canadian border. But instead of just doing this, it presented a study in contrast between the pure nihilism of Nazi race creeds and the pluralism of imperial democracy. And a portrait of the complex relationship between national and ethnic identity and empire. And a defence of art and humanism in the face of cultural philistinism. Plus a few other things, too.

Mario Caiano, Eye in the Labyrinth
A giallo with an even more bleak, misanthropic and morally empty worldview than usual. The stylish sheen and surface gloss barely mask the psychological horror at the centre of the permissive materialism depicted here. A savage take on Antonioni.

He did. A cigarette and a glass of something.
This is the pure, distilled, uncut essence of England.
It's Falstaff and Prince Hal in one body, one mind.

I think I’m already on record saying that it should be hung in the National Portrait Gallery.
