THE
X-FILES: I WANT TO BELIEVE
|
|
| FEATURING: David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson | ||
| In grand "X-Files" manner, the as yet untitled film's storyline is being kept under wraps. This much can be revealed: It is a stand-alone story in the tradition of some of the show's most acclaimed and beloved episodes, and takes the complicated relationship between Fox Mulder (Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Anderson) in unexpected directions. Mulder continues his unshakable quest for the truth, and Scully, the passionate, ferociously intelligent physician, remains inextricably tied to Mulder's pursuits. | ||

The movie gets into
some pretty freaky territory in the third act, but for this casual fan
of the series, it's a strong effort featuring some great characters. |

TRUMBO | |
| FEATURING:
Dalton Trumbo, Joan Allem, Brian Dennehy, Kirk Douglas, Michael Douglas, Paul Giamatti, Danny Glover, Peter Hanson |
||
| TRUMBO is the story of screenwriter Dalton Trumbo’s remarkable journey from Hollywood royalty to blacklisted writer to Academy Award winner. Focusing on the writer’s own indelible words, the film features performances of some of his extraordinary letters, clips from his films and, archival and contemporary interviews with those who knew him best. The film illustrates how one man’s unerring belief in the First Amendment and the power of the written word enabled him to fight back after being blacklisted by The House Un-American Activities Committee in 1947 . Forced to write underground, letter writing became the chief repository of Trumbo’s extraordinary talents, and they serve as a wonderfully entertaining testament to his boundless intellect, acerbic humor, and staggering resilience. | ||

Claudia Puig USA Today Monica Ali's expansive, epic best seller about decades in the life of a sheltered wife from Bangladesh in the titular London neighborhood is transformed into a compact, delicate tale of adultery, extremism, and awakening.

THE FALL | |
| FEATURING:
Lee Pace, Catinca Untaru, Justine Waddell |
||
| From acclaimed visionary director, Tarsem Singh, comes a dazzlingly innovative epic that begins with an unlikely friendship between a little girl and an injured stunt man-turned-storyteller. After breaking her arm in an orange grove, young Alexandria (Catinca Untaru) finds herself confined to a hospital ward. She passes the seemingly endless days by exploring the only frontier she thinks has left: the hospital. When she wanders into the room where Roy (Lee Pace) lies, uncertain if he will ever walk again, she is oblivious to his bitterness and blithely introduces herself. Disarmed by her innocence, he tells her a story from the life of her namesake, Alexander the Great. Alexandria is captivated, suddenly remembering the frontier she has neglected to explore: her imagination. The next time she visits, Roy promises to tell her the most amazing story she has ever heard. And thus begins the sweeping, swashbuckling tale of the Black Masked Bandit, which unfolds before our eyes as Alexandria imagines it, populated with faces from the hospital ward around her. | ||

Fall is aptly named not only because it pertains to a tragic descent but
because viewers will feel as if they have plunged headlong into an alternate
universe with this dazzling adult fairy tale. Claudia Puig USA Today Tarsem's The Fall is a mad folly, an extravagant visual orgy, a free-fall from reality into uncharted realms. Surely it is one of the wildest indulgences a director has ever granted himself. Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Dazzling and delirious, The Fall is a celebration of cinema, of old-fashioned storytelling and globe-hopping spectacle. Steven Rea Philadelphia Inquirer |
