Filmmaker Shirley Clarke ("The Connection") directs this powerful, stark semi-documentary look at the horrors of Harlem ghetto slum life filled with drugs, violence, human misery, and a sense of despair due to the racial prejudices of American society. There is no patronizing of the black race in this cinematic cry for justice. A fifteen-year-old boy called Duke (Rony Clanton) is ambitious to buy a "piece" (a gun) from an adult racketeer named Priest (Carl Lee), to become president of the gang to which he belongs, and to return them to active "bopping" (gang fighting) which has declined in Harlem. It is a clearly patent allegory of an attempt by Duke to attain manhood and identity in the only way accessible to him - the antisocial one.
Acclaimed filmmaker Errol Morris paints a fascinating portrait of four obsessed eccentrics in Fast, Cheap and Out of Control. Morris weaves interviews with a wild animal trainer, a topiary gardener, a robot designer and an expert on the naked mole rat together with old movies, cartoons, and stock footage for a compelling, kaleidoscopic look at the very thin line which separates madness from genius.
Four anarchistic, nihilistic youths run a muck in the streets and Attack the Gas Station! Lord Of The Flies-style social engineering quickly breaks out amongst the hostages as punk rockers pump petrol, gangsters are forced to rap, customer service becomes a fighting art and the gas station becomes a staging ground for an end-times battle between gangsters, punks and an army of moped-delivery boys. Director Kim Sang-Jin takes us into the world of the surreal where mayhem rules. Using psychedelic lighting, glittering mopeds and a cast of feisty up and coming actors, he has managed to create a film that is both stylish and poignant. A Dada poke in the eye to authority, this film either serves as a political parable about Korean society, a microcosm of Korean social problems or, alternately, just a hell of a lot of fun.
Two brothers share a lifetime's experiences through some of the major events of recent Italian history. Inextricably linked, they are pushed and pulled apart by the tides of history and their own elusive dreams.
The film follows two English families through love, loss and change during the turbulent period of 1899-1933. From the Boer War through Queen Victoria's death, World War I and the Depression, the upper-class Marryots and working-class Bridges never lose hope.
Charismatic but ruthless film producer Jonathan Shields (Kirk Douglas) needs a blockbuster after producing three consecutive flops and falling out of favor with the studio. To help him make a comeback, he appeals to three Hollywood heavyweights - a director (Barry Sullivan), an actress (Lana Turner) and a writer (Dick Powell) - who owe their success to Shields. Unfortunately, they all hate his guts and have vowed never to work for him again.
