P258 ORACLE 258 Sun22 Dec ANG 1914:19 W SUNDAY 02.30 McQ (1974) John Wayne, Diana Muldaur An action-packed police thriller with Wayne trading his western clothes for a cop's uniform but as tough as ever. He plays a big city detective who goes on the rampage after his best friend has been shot-gunned to death. Soon McQ is in trouble with the police and a gang of villains after one million dollars worth of heroin... Fast-moving and exciting, it's directed by John Sturges.

P258 ORACLE 258 Sun22 Dec ANG 1917:45 W SUNDAY 14.00 THE NEVERENDING STORY (1984) Barret Oliver, Noah Hathaway Teenager Oliver reads a "mystical" book about young warrior Hathaway's quest to save the world of Fantasia and enters the story to help save the day... This good-natured family fantasy boasts excellent special effects which clearly took up much of the $27 million budget. German director Wolfgang Petersen shows a keen imagination and genuine sense of wonder, giving a magical feeling to the proceedings. Youngsters will love it.

P258 ORACLE 258 Sun22 Dec ANG 1914:53 W SUNDAY 23.55 REAR WINDOW (1954) James Stewart, Grace Kelly Photographer Stewart witnesses a murder in an apartment opposite his flat but can't convince anyone he has seen it. This is one of the most enjoyable and inventive of Hitchcock thrillers, with stylish writing and direction. A white-haired Raymond Burr appears as the killer and suspense is impeccably built up. The love scenes were thought (for the time) to be remarkably steamy. (Alan Frank) more follows > TV Plus 250Advertising 270ITV Today TV Guide What's On Adverts
P258 ORACLE 258 Sun22 Dec ANG 1916:29 W MONDAY 01.25 UN HOMME ET UNE FEMME (1966) Jean-Louis Trintignant, Anouk Aimee Widowed racing driver Trintignant meets widowed Aimee when they are in Deauville visiting their children, in a smart but rather artificial drama. The chic love story is told by director Claude Lelouch in beautiful advertising style images. Shallow? Perhaps but his effort won a Best Foreign Film Oscar. It's strong on charm if less convincing in its obvious characterisation. But it is deftly acted. The music was a smash.

P258 ORACLE 258 Sun22 Dec ANG 1917:25 W MONDAY 04.15 HELLINGER'S LAW (TVM 1981) Telly Savalas, Rod Taylor Another pilot for a series which failed to fly finds Savalas, fresh from Kojak, as a larger-than-life criminal lawyer. Savalas is delighted when a local crime syndicate doubles his regular fee to get him to defend a Mafia accountant accused of murdering a TV personality. It's slickly directed by Leo Penn whose now-famous son Sean gets an early role. There's an interesting supporting cast.
