Hello Film Doctor friends.

We have officially arrived at the penultimate Fun Friday post for this year.

American Hustle  is ‘hitting town’ today and the Film Doctor team turns to its Director David O. Russell (I Heart Huckabees, The Fighter, Silver Linings Playbook) and his list of personal favourites:

• • Blue Velvet (1986, dir. David Lynch)
  • Chinatown (1974, dir. Roman Polanski)
  • The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (1972, dir. Luis Bunel)
