Two Days in the Valley
Written By: John Herzfeld
Country: USA
Awards: 1 nomination
John Herzfeld deftly welds together a multitude of subplots-- a loser hitman and a cool assassin involved in
an insurance scam; a washed-up director, turned suicidal, if only he had someone to care for his beloved
dog; a snooty art dealer, wracked by kidney stones, cared for by his devoted assistant; a grungy deranged
vice cop, now partnered with a fresh-faced rookie; and two beautiful and jealous women entangled in their
deadly scheme--into a spoof of the crime thriller genre.

It is spring, 480 BC Persian King Xerxes, continuing his fathers, Darius, master plan to conquer the
Hellenic city-states, arrives in Hellas. The previous Persian invasion and diplomatic attempts have already
turned most northern Hellas tribes and states to the Persian side. But the people of Athens and Sparta, the
largest Hellenic powers at the time, feel quite insulted by the Persian emissaries requesting their surrender
to Xerxes and slay them. In Sparta, King Leonidas consults the local oracle, which gives two options:
either a spartan king will have to be sacrificed or Sparta will be burned to the ground. A year earlier (481,
BC) a panhellenic consortium of all southern city-states have already recognized the superiority of the
spartan army (the best organized and trained army at the time) and have announced King Leonidas
supreme commander of the combined Hellenic army. It is then decided that a small force should block
Xerxes' way to southern Hellas in the Thermopylae passage.This passage was at that time 12 meters
wide.The great historian Herodotus, possibly exaggerating, states that there were 1700000 Persians(their
true number could be anywhere around 100000 and 1000000) against 7000 Hellenic hoplites and slaves,
including the 300 men of the spartan king elite guard. King Xerxes waited for 4 days for the Hellenes to be
frightened and eventually surrender and was quite astonished by his opponents complete apathy who
were following their daily program practicing and making their hair! After that Xerxes tried to convince
Leonidas to drop weapons, give up his position, kneel before him and live on as a local governor under
Xerxes. King Leonidas replied "molon lave", which means "Come and get them". Then the 3 days battle
begun with the 300 Spartans, and 700 thespians (the other Hellenes where sent by Leonidas to protect
passages to their flanks) slaying thousands of Persians with minimal losses. The whole Persian campaign
would have fail if there wasn't Efialtes who showed Xerxes a secret passage to the Hellenic flanks. After a
final battle lead by king Xerxes himself the Hellenic force was completely slain and their heroism and glory
was written forever in history. From the beginning of the battle the Hellenes buried their dead in the spot
they fell dead. After the battle signs where made for the dead of each Hellenic faction. For the
pelloponisians generally (including the 300 Spartans) the sign reads(free translation) 'In this place 4000
thousand pelloponisians fought 30 millions), for the 300 Spartans(lakaedaemonians) especially the sign
reads(free translation) 'Oh foreigner tell the lakaedaemonians that we are buried here obeying their laws'
meaning that they never hesitated and never retreated from the enemy. The impact of the battle was
enormous for both sides. The Persians' morale dropped to zero and the Hellenes lost their fear for the
Persian conqueror and organized their defense. After several successful battles the Hellenes ultimately
defeated the Persian army and repelled their invasion in the Battle of plataea in 479 BC.

Nicole broke up with Matt months ago and is now engaged to someone else. He's very good-looking and
has no trouble finding other lovers, but that doesn't help because he's still obsessed with wanting her back.
Then he gets the inspiration that swearing off sex for Lent (all forms of sexual activity, even kissing or
masturbation) will give him the perspective he needs. So of course a few days later he meets a woman
and they fall in love. Now Matt sees his vow as a personal matter, and won't even tell her about it, but his
friends think otherwise, and now the complications begin...

In 1964, a brash new pro boxer, fresh from his olympic gold medal victory, explodes on to the scene,
Cassius Clay. Bold and outspoken, he cuts an entirely new image for African American's in sport with his
proud public self confidence with his unapologetic belief that he is the greatest boxer of all time. To his
credit, he sets out to prove that with his highly agile and forceful style soon making him a formidable boxer
who soon claims the heavyweight championship. His personal life is no less noteworthy with his allegiance
to the Nation of Islam, his friendship with the controversial Malcolm X and his abandonment of his slave
name in favour of Muhammad Ali stirring up controversy. Yet, at the top of his game, both Ali's personal
and professional lives face the ultimate test with the military draft rules are changed, making him eligible
for military induction during the Vietnam War. Despite the fact that he could easily agree to a sweetheart
deal that would have meant an easy tour of duty for himself, Ali refuses to submit on principle to cooperate
in an unjust war for a racist nation that treated his people so poorly. The cost of that stand is high as he
finds himself unable to legally box in his own country while his case is contested in court. What follows is a
battle for a man who would sacrifice so much for what he believes in and a comeback that would cement
his legend as one of the great sports figures of all time.

confrontational and abrasive and Dave is bewildered by it. Then, after yet another mishap, Judge Daniels
orders Dave to step up his therapy or wind up in jail. So, Buddy moves in with Dave to help him battle his
inner demons. Buddy himself has no inner demons since he acts out at every opportunity and that includes
making lewd comments about Dave's girlfriend Linda and goading Dave into confronting every slight, past
or present, head-on. But Buddy finally goes too far and Dave must decide whether to crawl back into his
shell or stand up for himself. Could it be that Buddy's confounding and contradictory treatment is just what

out of the game, a young, unknown third-stringer is called in to replace him. Having ridden the bench for
years because of a string of bad luck stories and perhaps insufficient character, Willie Beaman (Jamie
Foxx) seizes what may be his last chance, and lights up the field with a raw display of athletic prowess. His
stunning performance over several games is so outstanding and fresh it seems to augur a new era in the
history of this Miami franchise, and forces aging coach Tony D'Amato (Al Pacino) to reevaluate his timetested values and strategies and begin to confront the fact that the game, as well as post-modern life may
be passing him by. Adding to the pressure on D'Amato to win at any cost is the aggressive young
President/Co-owner of the team, Christina Pagniacci (Cameron Diaz), now coming into her own after her
father's death. Christina's driving desire to prove herself in a male dominated world is intensified by her
focus on the marketing and business of football, in which all coaches and players are merely properties.

The decadent life of novelist Catherine Trammell (Sharon Stone) continues int his sequel that finds her in
the opening sequence speeding through the streets of London using the hand of her obviously under-theinfluence soccer star boy friend to masturbate herself. After the car goes out of control, she manages to
escape but he drowns leading to an investigation of whether she had in fact murdered him with an
implication that he was already dead before the car even entered the water. Officials bring in a police
psychologist (David Morrissey) to determine her mental state. Obsession sets in and the psychiatrist is
drawn into her manipulations and dangerous world. As deaths occur around the pair involving
acquaintances of both parties, including the psychiatrist's ex-wife, the story twists (and doesn't answer) to
make you wonder who is committing the crimes. David Thewlis also co-stars as a perhaps corrupt police
inspector and Charlotte Rampling appears as a colleague of the psychiatrist. Contains frequent nudity,
depiction of orgies and graphic sexual encounters, constant profanity and violence that is mostly
committed off-camera.

This is the true story of the most highly decorated British patrol since the Boer war: an eight man SAS
team inserted behind Iraqi lines during the Gulf War in January 1991. Their mission was to take out the
scud missiles which Saddam Hussein was using to terrorize his enemies, as well as to sever strategic
communication lines between Baghdad and North West Iraq. This top secret mission was called "Bravo
Two Zero" and it was commanded by Sergeant Andy McNab. Of the eight who went out, only five
returned. Dropped into "scud alley" carrying 210-pound packs, McNab and his men soon found
themselves surrounded by Saddam's army. Their radios didn't work; the weather was brutally cold. And
they had been spotted. For the SAS, the Bravo Two Zero patrol has always been seen with mixed feelings.
On one hand, its most famous ever action is a tale of remarkable endurance and heroism; on the other
hand, only one of the eight-man patrol managed to escape death or capture (as told in The One That Got
Away by Chris Ryan.)

Miro, a teen from Sarajevo, lives near King's Cross with his mother; he's nimble, able to run across roofs,
so his uncle hires him to break into office skylights, so the uncle can boost computers. Twice they steal
from Will's architectural firm, so Will stakes it out at night. He follows Miro home and returns the next day
and meets Miro's mother, Amira. At home, Will's relationship with Liv is strained - he feels outside Liv and
her daughter Bea's circle. The stakeout and Amira's vulnerability are attractive alternatives to being at
home. The police, too, watch Miro.

Casino Royale introduces James Bond before he holds his license to kill. But Bond is no less dangerous,
and with two professional assassinations in quick succession, he is elevated to '00' status. Bond's first 007
mission takes him to Uganda where he is to spy on a terrorist, Mollaka. Not everything goes to plan and
Bond decides to investigate, independently of MI6, in order to track down the rest of the terrorist cell.
Following a lead to the Bahamas, he encounters Dimitrios and his girlfriend, Solange. He learns that
Dimitrios is involved with Le Chiffre, banker to the world's terrorist organizations. Secret Service
intelligence reveals that Le Chiffre is planning to raise money in a high-stakes poker game in Montenegro
at Le Casino Royale. MI6 assigns 007 to play against him, knowing that if Le Chiffre loses, it will destroy
his organization. 'M' places Bond under the watchful eye of the beguiling Vesper Lynd. At first skeptical of
what value Vesper can provide, Bond's interest in her deepens as they brave danger together and even
torture at the hands of Le Chiffre. In Montenegro, Bond allies himself with Mathis MI6's local field agent,
and Felix Leiter who is representing the interests of the CIA. The marathon game proceeds with dirty tricks
and violence, raising the stakes beyond blood money and reaching a terrifying climax.

When an off-shore narco-trafficking cartel learns that they're about to be indicted by a federal grand jury,
they mount an operation to identify and kill the key witness, and the last stage is tonight. It is on this very
night that Vincent has arrived--and five bodies are supposed to fall. Circumstances cause Vincent to hijack
Max' taxicab, and Max becomes collateral--an expendable person who's in the wrong place at the wrong
time. Through the night, Vincent forces Max to drive him to each assigned destination. And as the L.A.P.D.

U.S. Air Force General Jack Ripper goes completely and utterly mad, and sends his bomber wing to
destroy the U.S.S.R. He suspects that the communists are conspiring to pollute the "precious bodily fluids"
of the American people. The U.S. president meets with his advisors, where the Soviet ambassador tells
him that if the U.S.S.R. is hit by nuclear weapons, it will trigger a "Doomsday Machine" which will destroy
all plant and animal life on Earth. Peter Sellers portrays the three men who might avert this tragedy: British
Group Captain Lionel Mandrake, the only person with access to the demented Gen. Ripper; U.S. President
Merkin Muffley, whose best attempts to divert disaster depend on placating a drunken Soviet Premier and
the former Nazi genius Dr. Strangelove, who concludes that "such a device would not be a practical
deterrent for reasons which at this moment must be all too obvious". Will the bombers be stopped in time,
or will General Jack Ripper succeed in destroying the world ?

At 35, Tripp has an interesting job, a hip car, a passion for sailing, and a great house - trouble is, he lives
with his parents. They want him out, so they hire Paula, an "interventionist," who has a formula in these
cases: chance encounter, get him to ask her out, involve him in a trauma, meet his friends and get their
nod, delay sex, have him teach her something, then launch him. It's worked up to now, but this gets
complicated when Tripp thinks she's getting too serious and one of his pals is attracted to Paula's
deadpan, semi-alcoholic roommate, who's plagued by a mockingbird. Too many secrets may scrub the
launch, and what if Paula really likes him? Who can intervene then?

Reed Richards, a brilliant but timid and bankrupt scientist, is convinced that evolution can be triggered by
clouds of cosmic energy, and has calculated that Earth is going to pass one of these clouds soon.
Together with his friend and partner, the gruff yet gentle astronaut muscle-man Ben Grimm, Reed
convinces his conceited MIT classmate Dr. Victor von Doom, now CEO of his own enterprise, to allow him
access to his privately-owned space station. Von Doom agrees in exchange for control over the
experiment and a majority of the profits from whatever benefits it brings. He thus brings aboard Susan
Storm, his shy, though assertive chief genetics researcher and a former lover of Reed's with whom she
had an acrimonious break-up, and her diametrically opposed brother Johnny, the maverick and hotheaded playboy pilot. The astronauts make it home intact; however, before long they begin to mutate,
developing strange and amazing powers as a result of their exposure to the cloud! Reed is able to stretch
like rubber; Sue can turn invisible and create force fields, especially when angered; Johnny can produce
fire at supernova temperatures, and is able to fly; and Ben is transformed into "The Thing", a large, rocklike creature with super strength. After Ben, brooding about his situation on the Brooklyn Bridge,
inadvertently causes a major traffic pile-up whilst attempting to stop a man about to commit suicide, the
four manage to use their powers to prevent any loss of life and to rescue a fire truck and its crew from
falling off the bridge in a resulting explosion. The media dubs the team the 'Fantastic Four', and whilst
Johnny eagerly embraces his powers and new life, Ben - the most heavily disfigured - particularly suffers
from his transformation; his disfigurement has caused his fiancee to abandon him and has seen him
shunned and feared by much of New York. Blaming himself, Reed vows to return Ben to his human form,
and he, Sue and Ben work on a cure, constructing a healing chamber in Reed's high tech Baxter Building
loft-turned-laboratory. During this time, Reed and Susan begin to grow close once again, and Susan
admits that she is not interested in Victor, but ended their relationship because Reed feared to commit,
thinking only in terms of variables. Unknown to the others, however, Victor's body is also mutating; he is
turning into organic metal capable of absorbing and manipulating electrical energy known as Doctor Doom.
As a result of the disastrous expedition, his company is going bankrupt and he is losing public stature;
blaming Reed for his misfortunes, Victor swears revenge. And Reed Ben Susan Johnny must defeat Victor
Von Doom and foil his evil plans once and for all.

In February, 1945, one of the fiercest battles of the Pacific theater of World War II occurs on the tiny island
of Iwo Jima. Thousands of Marines attack the stronghold maintained by thousands of Japanese, and the
slaughter on both sides is horrific. Early in the battle, an American flag is raised atop the high point, Mount
Suribachi, and a photograph of the raising becomes an American cause celebre. As a powerful inspiration
to war-sick Americans, the photo becomes a symbol of the Allied cause. The three surviving flag raisers,
Rene Gagnon, John Bradley, and Ira Hayes, are whisked back to civilization to help raise funds for the war
effort. But the accolades for heroism heaped upon the three men are at odds with their own personal
realizations that thousands of real heroes lie dead on Iwo Jima, and that their own contributions to the fight
are only symbolic and not deserving of the singling out they are experiencing. Each of the three must
come to terms with the honors, exploitation, and grief that they face simply for being in a photograph.

Roddy is a decidedly upper-crust "society mouse" who lives the life of a beloved pet in a posh Kensington
flat. When a sewer rat named Sid comes spewing out of the sink and decides he's hit the jackpot, Roddy
schemes to rid himself of the pest by luring him into the "whirlpool." Sid may be an ignorant slob, but he's
no fool, so it is Roddy who winds up being flushed away into the bustling sewer world of Ratropolis. There
Roddy meets Rita, an enterprising scavenger who works the sewers in her faithful boat, the Jammy
Dodger. Roddy immediately wants out, or rather, up; Rita wants to be paid for her trouble; and, speaking of
trouble, the villainous Toad--who royally despises all rodents equally, making no distinction between mice
and rats--wants them iced ... literally. The Toad dispatches his two hapless hench-rats, Spike and Whitey,
to get the job done. When they fail, the Toad has no choice but to send to France for his cousin--that
dreaded mercenary, Le Frog.

The day before Globodyne's stock tanks, a la Enron, and its pension fund evaporates, the corporation's
CEO and CFO set up middle manager Dick Harper to be the public face of the disaster. Jobless, and with
no savings, pension, or home equity, Dick and his wife Jane sink slowly into poverty. He looks for work (as
do all former Globodyne executives); he even tries day labor with the relatives of their Mexican nanny. A
foreclosure notice sends Dick and Jane over the edge into a life of blue-collar crime. Then, as things finally
look up, the report of an looming indictment pushes Dick and Jane toward a denouement with the real
criminals, the white-collar guys.

Andrew Largeman is NOT an out of work actor (as someone said earlier!), but is a semi-successful
television actor who plays a retarded quarterback. His somewhat controlling and psychiatrist father has led
Andrew ("Large") to believe that his mothers wheelchair bound life was his fault. However it seems
obvious to me that it was the mistake of a child, after his mother is confined to a wheelchair following an
unfortunate mistake by Andrew when he was a kid. Andrew decides to lay off the drugs that his father and
his doctor made him believe that he needed, and began to see life for what it is. He began to feel the pain
he had longed for, and began to have a genuine relationship with a girl who had some problems of her
own (Sam - Natalie Portman). Although Garden State isn't very interesting if you don't look into the plot;
Zach Braff has done a great job at creating a film that will be respected for its underlying plots. I say well
done Zach!

extraordinary talent to tap dance with almost magical energy and expression. Nevertheless, the deeply

fishing that threatens them all. Defiant in the face of unjust rejection, Mumble and his true friends set out to

Country: UK / USA
Young Harry Potter has to lead a hard life: His parents have died in a car crash when he was still a baby,
and he is being brought up by his Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia. For some reason unbeknownst to the
bespectacled ten-year-old, the Dursleys let him live in the small chamber under the stairs, and treat him
more like vermin than like a family member. His fat cousin Dudley, the Dursley's real son, keeps bothering
Harry all the time. On his eleventh birthday, Harry Potter finally receives a mysterious letter from a certain
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, telling him that he is chosen as one of the future students of
that supposedly renowned school. Hagrid, the gigantic man who brought the letter, finally introduces Harry
into the real circumstances of his life: His parents were a wizard and a witch, they were killed by the evil
wizard Voldemort protecting him. Harry still has a lightning-shaped scar on his forehead from that event.
Since he survived the attack as a baby, and also somehow deprived Voldemort from his powers, he has
been famous in the wizarding world ever since. The Dursleys, strong disbelievers in that magical crap,
never told Harry anything about his true self. So, Harry is strongly surprised, yet absolutely happy to start
his training. At Hogwarts, Harry meets his teachers, and becomes friends with Ron Weasley and Hermione
Granger. The three of them accidentally find out that the potions master, Severus Snape, seems to plot on
stealing something that is guarded by a three-headed dog. Since nobody would believe some first years to
have found out such important things that even would incriminate a Hogwarts teacher, they take it on
themselves to find out what Snape is up to. Their quest for the truth leads across many obstacles, from
keeping up the everyday school life, a bewitched Quidditch match (Quidditch is a popular wizard sport),
Fluffy, the three-headed monster dog and quite some tasks one has to overcome to get to the guarded
object.

Sergeant Tom Highway, a hardened, tough veteran of Korea and Vietnam returns to the United States for
his last tour of duty with the U.S. Marine Corps. He is assigned to training a recon unit. Their cool, trendy
and 'hippy' approach to military life is a reminder to him that he is, in the words of his general, "an
anachronism" - useful only "in case of war". Conveniently, a war does arise (the invasion of Grenada in
October, 1983) and successfully tests both his usefulness and the effectiveness of the new recruits.

Held yearly for centuries, the Ocean of Fire--a 3,000 mile survival race across the Arabian desert--was a
challenge restricted to the finest Arabian horses ever bred, the purest and noblest lines, owned by the
greatest royal families. In 1890, a wealthy sheik invited an American, Frank T. Hopkins, and his horse to
enter the race for the first time. During the course of his career, Hopkins was a cowboy and dispatch rider
for the U.S. cavalry--and had once been billed as the greatest rider the West had ever known. The Sheik
puts his claim to the test, pitting the American cowboy and his mustang, Hidalgo, against the world's
greatest Arabian horses and Bedouin riders--some of whom are determined to prevent a foreigner from
finishing the race. For Frank, the Ocean of Fire becomes not only a matter of pride and honor, but a race
for his very survival as he and his horse attempt the impossible.

Language: English
Country: USA
Hollywoodland is a uniquely compelling exploration of fame and identity, inspired by one of Hollywood's
most infamous real-life mysteries. The film is the feature directorial debut for Allen Coulter (Emmy and
DGA Award nominee for his work on The Sopranos and Sex and the City). June 16, 1959. The glamour of
Tinseltown permanently fades for actor George Reeves, the heroic Man of Steel on TV's Adventures of
Superman, as the actor dies in his Hollywood Hills home. Felled by a single gunshot wound, Reeves
(portrayed in Hollywoodland by Academy Award winner Ben Affleck) leaves behind a fiancée - aspiring
starlet Leonore Lemmon (Robin Tunney) - and millions of fans who are shocked by his death. But it is his
grieving mother, Helen Bessolo (Lois Smith), who will not let the questionable circumstances surrounding
his demise go unaddressed. Helen seeks justice, or at least answers. The Los Angeles Police Department
closes the case, but Helen hires - for $50 a day - private detective Louis Simo (Academy Award winner
Adrien Brody). Simo soon ascertains that the torrid affair Reeves had with Toni Mannix (Academy Award
nominee Diane Lane), the wife of MGM studio executive Eddie Mannix (Academy Award nominee Bob
Hoskins), might hold the key to the truth. But truth and justice are not so easily found in Hollywood. Simo
pursues dangerous and elusive leads in both high and low places and, in trying to turn up the heat, risks
getting burned. The detective also uncovers unexpected connections to his own life as the case turns
more personal and he learns more about Reeves himself. Behind the icon was a complex man who gave
his life to Hollywood in more ways than one.

into the murder of Dr. Alfred Lanning (James Cromwell), who works at U.S. Robotics, in which a robot,
Sonny (Tudyk), appears to be implicated, even though that would mean the robot had violated the Three
Laws of Robotics, which is apparently impossible. It seems impossible because.. if robots can break those
laws, there's nothing to stop them from taking over the world, as humans have grown to become
completely dependent upon their robots. Or maybe... they already have? Aiding Spooner in his

Rating: 7.9
This documentary was made three years after Jimi Hendrix's untimely death. At the time it was an
example of how a visual biography should be done, but some of the information in it needs revising in the
light of new information uncovered over the years. The film contains concert footage spanning the
Marquee in 1967 to his last UK performance at the third Isle of Wight festival in 1970; along the way we
see classic performances at Monterey (1967), Woodstock (1969), Fillmore East (1969/70), and Berkeley
(1970). A double album was released to tie-in with the film, containing the complete performances in the
film, along with interviews with people in the film (not necessarily the same interviews). The film is worth
seeing for Jimi's performances, and to hear what his contemporaries have to say about him (Eric Clapton,
Mitch Mitchell, Lou Reed, Mick Jagger, Pete Townsend, and others).

Scientists develop a means of bringing dinosaurs to life using DNA taken from dino' blood, which has been
preserved inside insects encased in amber. Whilst Hammond is showing off his dinosaur 'theme park' to a
selected audience [a lawyer (Gerrano), mathematician (Malcolm), dino' expert (Grant), palaeobotanist
(Sattler) and his grandchildren (Tim & Lex)], Nedry (computer expert) disables the security system so that
he can make his escape with some stolen embryos. This enables all the dinosaurs to escape their
enclosures... Look out the dinosaurs are coming !

Eight years after the InGen incident, Dr. Alan Grant is happy with his life far from any dinosaurs other than
fossilized. Unfortunately, he is extremely short in research money, and therefore accepts the offer of
wealthy businessman Paul Kirby: A low flight over isolated Isla Sorna, where InGen's second research site
was located, and Dr. Grant can fund his future research for a long time. What Dr. Grant didn't know is that
Kirby just needs a dinosaur expert to help him and his wife find their 14-year-old son Eric, who crashed on
the island while paragliding. What he did suspect, but never wanted to witness, is that the Velociraptors
have evolved into a communicating species (and seemingly all along had the capability to do so), now
being smarter than primates.

The Crusades
Country: UK / Spain / USA / Germany
It is the time of the Crusades during the Middle Ages - the world shaping 200-year collision between
Europe and the East. A blacksmith named Balian has lost his family and nearly his faith. The religious
wars raging in the far-off Holy Land seem remote to him, yet he is pulled into that immense drama. Amid
the pageantry and intrigues of medieval Jerusalem he falls in love, grows into a leader, and ultimately uses
all his courage and skill to defend the city against staggering odds. Destiny comes seeking Balian in the
form of a great knight, Godfrey of Ibelin, a Crusader briefly home to France from fighting in the East.
Revealing himself as Balian's father, Godfrey shows him the true meaning of knighthood and takes him on
a journey across continents to the fabled Holy City. In Jerusalem at that moment--between the Second and
Third Crusades--a fragile peace prevails, through the efforts of its enlightened Christian king, Baldwin IV,
aided by his advisor Tiberias, and the military restraint of the legendary Muslim leader Saladin. But
Baldwin's days are numbered, and strains of fanaticism, greed, and jealousy among the Crusaders
threaten to shatter the truce. King Baldwin's vision of peace--a kingdom of heaven--is shared by a handful
of knights, including Godfrey of Ibelin, who swear to uphold it with their lives and honor. As Godfrey
passes his sword to his son, he also passes on that sacred oath: to protect the helpless, safeguard the
peace, and work toward harmony between religions and cultures, so that a kingdom of heaven can flourish
on earth. Balian takes the sword and steps into history.

The island of Iwo Jima stands between the American military force and the home islands of Japan.
Therefore the Imperial Japanese Army is desperate to prevent it from falling into American hands and
providing a launching point for an invasion of Japan. General Tadamichi Kuribayashi is given command of
the forces on the island and sets out to prepare for the imminent attack. General Kuribayashi, however,
does not favor the rigid traditional approach recommended by his subordinates, and resentment and
resistance fester among his staff. In the lower echelons, a young soldier, Saigo, a poor baker in civilian life,
strives with his friends to survive the harsh regime of the Japanese army itself, all the while knowing that a
fierce battle looms. When the American invasion begins, both Kuribayashi and Saigo find strength, honor,
courage, and horrors beyond imagination.

Olive is a little girl with a dream: winning the Little Miss Sunshine contest. Her family wants her dream to

make it through a day without some disaster befalling them. Olive's father Richard is a flop as a
motivational speaker, and is barely on speaking terms with her mother. Olive's uncle Frank, a renowned
Proust scholar, has attempted suicide following an unsuccessful romance with a male graduate student.
Her brother Dwayne, a fanatical follower of Nietzsche, has taken a vow of silence, which allows him to
escape somewhat from the family whose very presence torments him. And Olive's grandfather is a ne'erdo-well with a drug habit, but at least he enthusiastically coaches Olive in her contest talent routine.
Circumstances conspire to put the entire family on the road together with the goal of getting Olive to the

In an airport waiting room, a man in a wheelchair tells a stranger a story about a fixed horse race in 1979

just out of the shower answers the door to a neighbor woman and explains that he's visiting, has had a
bad week, including being mugged, and doesn't know where his pal, who lives there, is. The neighbor is
chatty; she's a coroner. Two thugs arrive and, believing the visitor to be the guy who lives there, take him
to see the boss with the dead son, who tells him to kill the son of his Mob rival. Mistaken identity? What

A wave of kidnappings has swept through Mexico, feeding a growing sense of panic among its wealthier
citizens, especially parents. In one six-day period, there were twenty-four abductions, leading many to hire
bodyguards for their children. Into this world enters John Creasy, a burned-out ex-CIA operative/assassin,
who has given up on life. Creasy's friend Rayburn brings him to Mexico City to be a bodyguard to nineyear-old Pita Ramos, daughter of industrialist Samuel Ramos and his wife Lisa. Creasy is not interested in
being a bodyguard, especially to a youngster, but for lack of something better to do, he accepts the
assignment. Creasy barely tolerates the precocious child and her pestering questions about him and his
life. But slowly, she chips away at his seemingly impenetrable exterior, his defenses drop, and he opens
up to her. Creasy's new-found purpose in life is shattered when Pita is kidnapped. Despite being seriously
wounded during the kidnapping, he vows to kill anyone involved in or profiting from the kidnapping. And no
one can stop him.

1870. Dr. Jamie Dodd is elated : he has finally succeeded in capturing not one, but two pygmies. He brings
them to Scotland with the help of Elena Van den Ende, an adventurous woman who sells wild animals to
the zoos of Europe. His two anthropologist friends, Alexander and Fraser, and himself are certain they
have discovered the missing link, which will make them famous. They start examining the pygmy couple
from every angle and Jamie gradually discovers that Toko and Likola are just as sensitive and intelligent
as any other homo sapiens. His two colleagues strongly reject this idea as it is glory they are after not the
truth. Will Jamie be able to prove the two short people are genuine human beings and not freaks to be
shown in a zoo?

The Far Side of the World
Written By: Patrick O'Brian, Peter Weir
Country: USA
nominations
During the Napoleonic Wars, a British frigate, HMS Surprise, and a much larger French warship, the
Acheron, with greater fire power, stalk each other off of the coast of South America. Russell Crowe brings
great intensity to the role of Captain Jack Aubrey. Lucky Jack, as he is referred to by his crew, is well
regarded by his men, who trust him implicitly, even after the first devastating battle and an apparent
personal vendetta against the French captain. While the naval battle sequences are quite fantastic, the film
is successful because director Weir chose to build the story to get to know the men who are locked aboard
the tight quarters of a small ship and how they interact everyday. The officers and the mates are wellknown by the time the final battle comes. Paul Bettany offers a strong performance as the surgeon and
naturalist who balances the violence of his chosen life with the quiet demeanor of the scientist. He is the
captain's friend and confidant, the two frequently playing violin and cello duets together. The horrors of the
injuries from the war are frequently implied, but vividly depicted in the reactions of the characters.

Meet Roy and Frank, a couple of professional small-time con artists. What Roy, a veteran of the grift, and
Frank, his ambitious protégé, are swindling these days are "water filtration systems," bargain-basement
water filters bought by unsuspecting people who pay ten times their value in order to win bogus prizes like
cars, jewelry and overseas vacations--which they never collect. These scams net the flim-flam men a few
hundred here, another thousand there, which eventually adds up to a lucrative partnership. Roy's private
life, however, is not so successful. An obsessive-compulsive agoraphobe with no personal relationships to
call his own, Roy is barely hanging on to his wits, and when his idiosyncrasies begin to threaten his
criminal productivity he's forced to seek the help of a psychoanalyst just to keep him in working order.
While Roy is looking for a quick fix, his therapy begets more than he bargained for: the revelation that he
has a teenage daughter--a child whose existence he suspected but never dared confirm. What's more
troubling, 14-year-old Angela wants to meet the father she never knew. At first, Angela's appearance
disrupts her neurotic father's carefully ordered routine. Soon, however, with his own unique spin on
parenthood, Roy begins to enjoy a relationship he never dreamed of having with his daughter. But while he
develops paternal feelings for the 14-year-old, she's developing a fascination with Daddy's questionable
career.

Ricardo Tubbs (Jamie Foxx) is urbane and dead smart. He lives with Bronx-born Intel analyst Trudy
(Naomie Harris), as they work undercover transporting drug loads into South Florida to identify a group
responsible for three murders. Sonny Crockett (Colin Farrell) [to the untrained eye, his presentation may
seem unorthodox, but procedurally, he is sound] is charismatic and flirtatious until - while undercover
working with the supplier of the South Florida group - he gets romantically entangled with Isabella (Gong
Li), the Chinese-Cuban wife of an arms and drugs trafficker. The best undercover identity is oneself with
the volume turned up and restraint unplugged. The intensity of the case pushes Crockett and Tubbs out
onto the edge where identity and fabrication become blurred, where cop and player become one especially for Crockett in his romance with Isabella and for Tubbs in the provocation of an assault on those
he loves.

into the future. Sick of the examinations he underwent as a child and the interest of the government and
medical establishment in his power, he lies low under an assumed name in Vegas, performing cheap tricks
and living off small-time gambling "winnings." But when a terrorist group threatens to detonate a nuclear
device in Los Angeles, government agent Callie Ferris must use all her wiles to capture Cris and convince
him to help her stop the cataclysm.

Barbara Covett is a veteran and cynical schoolteacher who is close to retirement. She is barely tolerated
by her less brilliant and acerbic colleagues who know nothing about her private life which consists mainly
of taking care of Portia, her aging cat, and spending countless hours alone. The only means she has found
to take the edge off her desperate loneliness is writing in her journal. When Sheba Hart, a younger,
attractive woman, joins the faculty as an art teacher, Barbara watches her from afar and has nothing but
caustic things to say in her diary about her clothing and her care-free manner. Despite her disdain for this
woman, Barbara finds herself reaching out to her. Sheba responds by inviting her to dinner at her house to
meet Sheba's lecturer husband, who is twenty years her senior, and their two children, a sexy and
rebellious 16-year-old daughter and a younger boy with Downs Syndrome. Instead of opening herself to
these people, Barbara immediately sees them as competition to be beaten in the battle for Sheba's
attention. Later, when Barbara discovers her new friend in a classroom having sex with Steven, a 15-yearold from the school who has artistic talent; she realizes that knowledge of this secret gives her power over
Sheba which she can use for her own purposes. Barbara promises to not tell anyone but insists that the
affair must end immediately. Sheba says she will but finds herself drawn back to the boy again and again.
Sheba seems uneasy with Barbara's friendship and is appalled when she discovers the older woman
might have a sexual interest in her. The tenuous relationship between the two women reaches a crisis
point when Barbara's cat is dying and she asks Sheba to go with her to the vet. She chooses to go with
her family to see their son in a play instead. In revenge, Barbara sets in motion the scandal that will rock
both their lives in ways they never imagined.

Every man's dream comes true for William Thacker, a successless Notting Hill bookstore owner, when
Anna Scott, the world's most beautiful woman and best-liked actress, enters his shop. A little later, he still
can't believe it himself, William runs into her again - this time spilling orange juice over her. Anna accepts
his offer to change in his nearby apartment, and thanks him with a kiss, which seems to surprise her even
more than him. Eventually, Anna and William get to know each other better over the months, but being
together with the world's most wanted woman is not easy - neither around your closest friends, nor in front
of the all-devouring press.

Unchain My Heart: The Ray Charles
Story
Written By: (WGA), Taylor Hackford
Country: USA
nominations more
Ray Charles has the distinction of being both a national treasure and an international phenomenon. By the
early 1960's Ray Charles had accomplished his dream. He'd come of age musically. He'd made it to
Carnegie Hall. The hit records "Georgia," "Born to Lose" successively kept climbing to the top of the
charts. He'd made his first triumphant European concert tour in 1960 (a feat which, except for 1965, he's
repeated at least once a year ever since). He had taken virtually every form of popular music and broken
through its boundaries with such awe inspiring achievements as the LP's "Genius Plus Soul Equals Jazz"
and "Modern Sounds in Country & Western." Rhythm & blues (or "race music" as it had been called)
became universally respectable through his efforts. Jazz found a mainstream audience it had never
previously enjoyed. And country & western music began to chart an unexpected course to general
acceptance, then worldwide popularity. And along the way Ray Charles was instrumental in the invention
of rock & roll. Jamie Foxx (Any Given Sunday, Ali) is Ray Charles in this high-energy portrait of an
exceptional man who has become an American icon. Born in a poor African American town in central
Florida, Ray Charles went blind at the age of 7. With the staunch support of his determined single mother,
he developed the fierce resolve, wit and incredible talent that would eventually enable him to overcome not
only Jim Crow Racism and the cruel prejudices against the blind, but also discover his own sound which
revolutionized American popular music. Nonetheless, as Ray's unprecedented fame grew, so did his
weakness for drugs and women, until they threatened to strip away the very things he held most dear. This
little known story of Ray Charles' meteoric rise from humble beginnings, his successful struggle to excel in
a sighted world and his eventual defeat of his own personal demons make for an inspiring and
unforgettable true story of human triumph.

have a job or a family. He used to have both until he lost his family on the fateful day of 9/11, and the grief
he felt caused him to quit his job and isolate himself from everyone around him. As it turns out, Alan and
Charlie were roommates in college, and a chance encounter one night rekindles the friendship they

Max Fischer is a precocious 15-year-old whose reason for living is his attendance at Rushmore, a private
school where he's not doing well in any of his classes, but where he's the king of extracurricular activities from being in the beekeeping society to writing and producing plays, there's very little after school he
doesn't do. His life begins to change, however, when he finds out he's on academic probation, and when
he stumbles into love with Miss Cross, a pretty teacher of the elementary school at Rushmore. Added to
the mix is his friendship with Herman Blume, wealthy industrialist and father to boys who attend the school,
and who also finds himself attracted to Miss Cross. Max's fate becomes inextricably tied to this odd love
triangle, and how he sets about resolving it is the story in the film.

Bob Munro is the dad of a dysfunctional family. He hires an RV to take the family on vacation. However
Bob is NOT the best RV steering wheel operator in the neighborhood and the hilarity is added on by the
fact that the brakes are about as useful as a chocolate fireguard. Bob first realizes it when the RV rolls (not
literally) backwards into a line of shopping carts. Also Bob's job is in danger if he doesn't go to a very
important meeting. Before you can say "COME BACK! COME BACK!," things go gloriously, hilariously,
Munro-annoyingly wrong due to the lack of brakes, Bob's job, toilet waste not cleared out from the last
rental and more hilarious stuff.

A rather odd thing has just occurred in the life of nerdy high school student Peter Parker: after being bitten
by a genetically modified spider, his body chemistry is altered mutagenically. He can now scale walls and
ceilings, he has superhuman strength and super-fast reflexes, and he develops a precognitive sense that
warns him of approaching danger. Adopting the name Spider-Man, Peter first uses his newfound powers
to make money, but after his uncle is murdered at the hands of a criminal Peter failed to stop, he swears to
use his powers to fight the evil that killed his uncle. At the same time, scientist and businessman Norman
Osborn, after exposure to an experimental nerve gas, develops an alternate personality himself: the superstrong, psychotic Green Goblin! Peter Parker must now juggle three things in his life: his new job at a local
newspaper under a perpetually on-edge employer, his battle against the evil Green Goblin, and his fight to
win the affections of beautiful classmate Mary Jane Watson, against none other than his best friend Harry
Osborn, son of Norman Osborn! Is this challenge too much for even the Amazing Spider-Man to handle?

unfulfilled life are his dreams of one day making it out of there. Nora is a privileged ballet dancer attending
Baltimore¹s ultra-elite Maryland School of the Arts -- and the only thing standing in the way of her
obviously brilliant future is finding a great dance partner for her senior showcase. When trouble with the
law lands Tyler with a community service gig at Maryland School of the Arts, he arrives as an angry

After eliminating General Zod & the other Kryptonian arch-villains, Ursa & Non, Superman leaves Earth to
try to find his former home world of Krypton after astronomers have supposedly found it. When he finds
nothing but remnants, he returns home to Earth - to find out that Lois Lane is engaged to a relative of his
boss, and that Lex Luthor is at it again - after swindling an elderly, terminally ill woman. The psychopathic
Luthor, whose plans to destroy California failed because of Superman's heroics, vows vengeance against
the Man of Steel and contrives a new sinister plot - using the crystals of Krypton to build a continent that
will wipe out most of North America! Embedded in the continent's structure is Kryptonite - the lethal
substance that is Superman's only weakness. Upon learning of Luthro's sinister scheme, Superman must
again race against time to stop the psychopathic Luthor before millions - possibly billions - are killed.

Based on the best-selling John le Carré novel and from the Academy Award-nominated director of "City of
God." In a remote area of Northern Kenya, activist Tessa Quayle (Rachel Weisz) is found brutally
murdered. Tessa's companion, a doctor, appears to have fled the scene, and the evidence points to a
crime of passion. Members of the British High Commission in Nairobi assume that Tessa's widower, their
mild-mannered and unambitious colleague Justin Quayle (Ralph Fiennes), will leave the matter to them.
They could not be more wrong. Haunted by remorse and jarred by rumors of his late wife's infidelities,
Quayle surprises everyone by embarking on a personal odyssey that will take him across three continents.
Using his privileged access to diplomatic secrets, he will risk his own life, stopping at nothing to uncover
and expose the truth - a conspiracy more far-reaching and deadly than Quayle could ever have imagined.

Years ago, a powerful Irish mafia figure placed a small selection of his youngest, brightest men into the
Massachusetts Police Academy as cadets. Their purpose is to eventually rise within the prestigious ranks
of the city's police department, to serve as the eyes and ears of their boss. While somewhere else, a
young cadet was assigned with an equally dangerous task: infiltrate the Irish syndicate headed by the man
sending in his own to the Boston Police. Now, one cadet is an up and coming police official with a torn
allegiance to his job and to the criminal mastermind that put him there. While the other cadet is the trusted
number two of that man, only finding his professional duties are becoming blurred with his current state.
But new clues have lead to unfortunate discoveries, when both sides realize they're being watched by the
enemy. It's now all just a matter of time before the men assigned to find out whose the infiltrator, could
come to a bloody end when someone's identity may be revealed.

The US Coast Guard version of "Top Gun" with a little "An Officer and A Gentleman" thrown in: an aging
USCG rescue swimmer's team is killed in a horrific rescue mission. Immediately prior to this terrible event,
his wife also announced that she cannot take anymore. His first love is always the rescue mission. This
leaves him an obviously emotional wreck. His commender gives him a choice - quit or take a position as
an instructor at the USCG training facility in Louisiana. Reluctantly he takes the position. Moving into the
school, he immediately increases the 18 week curriculum that routinely fails half of the people that attend.
Here he meets a young man with unlimited potential, but with some secret that seems to hold him back as
a team player. Delving into his past, links are found that make him a psychic twin to the older man. Thrown
into the midst of the story is a romance with a local girl. Rescue missions punctuate the beginning and end
of the story with the training sessions the center of the film.

Mr. Incredible is a superhero; or he used to be, until a surge of lawsuits against superheroes submitted by
the people they've saved forced the government to hide them in witness protection programs so they could
lead normal, anonymous lives. Now known exclusively by his secret identity, Bob Parr, he lives with his
wife Helen, formerly Elastigirl, and their three children Violet, Dash, and Jack Jack. He works as an
insurance claims specialist, and he's fed up with his pushy boss and his immoral profession, but his wife's
worked too hard to build a normal life for her family to abide his nostalgia for heroism. When Mr.
Incredible's offered the chance to play the role of hero again by a mysterious informant, he jumps at the
opportunity, but when it turns out to be a trap set by an old nemesis he had a hand in corrupting, the whole
family must reveal themselves to save Mr. Incredible and countless innocents.

The Island tells the story of a future world where wealthy citizens have the option to have themselves
cloned in order to insure they have a guaranteed matching source for organs, blood, or any other
replacement body parts that may be needed. While this sounds like a great medical advancement in
theory, the reality is the "insurance policies" of these affluent people are actual living, breathing, and
feeling human beings who have to be murdered in order for the original person to have their replacement
body part. The clones are deceived into believing they are being held away due to a worldwide
contamination. The only other uncontaminated place is known as the Island, and periodically one or
several of the clones will "win" a lottery ticket to go to this island. In actuality, they are being killed for their
organs. When two of the clones escape and learn the truth of their situation, they attempt to free the others
and tell everyone they can about the conspiracy while being hunted down by those in charge at the
Utopian facility from which they came.

In the early 1970s, Nicholas Garrigan, a young semi-idealistic Scottish doctor, comes to Uganda to assist
in a rural hospital. Once there, he soon meets up with the new President, Idi Amin, who promises a golden
age for the African nation. Garrigan hits it off immediately with the rabid Scotland fan, who soon offers him
a senior position in the national health department and becomes one of Amin's closest advisers. However
as the years pass, Garrigan cannot help but notice Amin's increasingly erratic behavior that grows beyond
a legitimate fear of assassination into a murderous insanity that is driving Uganda into bloody ruin.
Realizing his dire situation with the lunatic leader unwilling to let him go home, Garrigan must make some
crucial decisions that could mean his death if the despot finds out.

United States in minutes if they become operational. President John F. Kennedy and his advisors must

the way to another U.S. invasion of the island. However, Kennedy is reluctant to follow through, because a

Claire, a retired concert cellist who a year ago was involved in a serious auto accident, and who has just
sent off her daughter Caitlin (Norman's stepdaughter) to college. Now, Claire reports hearing voices and

being haunted by a ghost. His advice? Try to make contact. Enlisting the help of her best friend, Jody, and
a ouija board, Claire seeks to find out the truth of What Lies Beneath.
