Soon he slips back into his old ways as a sneaky chicken thief and in doing so, endangers not only his beloved family, but the whole animal community. Trapped underground and with not enough food to go around, the animals band together to fight against the evil Farmers - Boggis, Bunce and Bean - who are determined to capture the audacious, fantastic Mr. Fox at any cost.

Studio: Oscilloscope Laboratories
Director: Oren Moverman
Screenwriter: Oren Moverman, Alessandro Camon
Starring: Ben Foster, Woody Harrelson, Samantha Morton, Jena Malone, Eamonn Walker
Genre: Drama
MPAA Rating: R (for language and some sexual content/nudity)
Official Website: TheMessengermovie.com


Plot Summary: In his most powerful performance to date, Ben Foster stars as Will Montgomery, a U.S. Army officer who has just returned home from a tour in Iraq and is assigned to the Army's Casualty Notification service. Partnered with fellow officer Tony Stone (Woody Harrelson) to bear the bad news to the loved ones of fallen soldiers, Will faces the challenge of completing his mission while seeking to find comfort and healing back on the home front. When he finds himself drawn to Olivia (Samantha Morton), to whom he has just delivered the news of her husband's death, Will's emotional detachment begins to dissolve and the film reveals itself as a surprising, humorous, moving and very human portrait of grief, friendship and survival.

Featuring tour-de-force performances from Foster, Harrelson and Morton, and a brilliant directorial debut by Oren Moverman, "The Messenger" brings us into the inner lives of these outwardly steely heroes to reveal their fragility with compassion and dignity.

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=+1] Women in Trouble

[/SIZE][/FONT]Studio: Screen Media Films
Director: Sebastian Gutierrez
Screenwriter: Sebastian Gutierrez
Starring: Carla Gugino, Connie Britton, Adrianne Palicki, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Simon Baker, Josh Brolin, Marley Shelton, Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Genre: Comedy
MPAA Rating: R (for sexual content including strong dialogue, and for language)
Official Website: ScreenMediaFilms.net


Plot Summary: From acclaimed writer-director Sebastian Gutierrez comes an outrageous, genre-bending, multi-layered comedy about one day in the lives of ten seemingly disparate women - including a porn star, a flight attendant, a psychiatrist, a masseuse, a bartender and a pair of call girls -- all with one thing in common: trouble. Carla Gugino ("Sin City") stars as Elektra Luxx, a world-famous porn star whose future is thrown for a loop with the news that she's pregnant and Adrianne Palicki ("Friday Night Lights") is Holly Rocket, a not-too-bright adult industry newcomer with an inconvenient aversion to girl-girl action. Their paths intersect with, among others, a hilariously suave British Rock Star (Josh Brolin), a bright neurotic with a dark past (Connie Britton, "Friday Night Lights") and a call girl with a tricky client (Emmanuelle Chriqui, "Entourage").
