Capote:
In November 1959, the shocking murder of a smalltown Kansas family captures the imagination of Truman Capote, famed author of Breakfast At Tiffany's. Played by Academy Award and Bafta winner Philip Seymour Hoffman (Best Actor, 2005), Capote sets out to investigate with his childhood friend Harper Lee (Cathrine Keener), winning over the locals despite his flamboyant appearance and style.
When he forms a bond with the killers and their execution date nears, the writing of in Cold Blood, a book that will change the course of American literature, takes a drastic toll on Capote, changing him in ways he never imagined. Also stars Academy Award winner Chris Cooper (Best Supporting Actor, Adaptation, 2002)
All The Kings Men:
Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn (Best Actor, Mystic River, 2003), two-time Academy Award nominee Jude Law (Best Actor, Cold Mountain, 2003), five-time Academy Award nominee Kate Winslet (Best Actress, Titanic, 1997), and Oscar winner Anthony Hopkins (Best Actor, The Silence Of The Lambs 1991) star in this riveting story of a humble man's rise to political power and the destructive force of corruption and betrayal that would ultimately unravel his soul. Based on Robert Penn Warren's 1946 classic Pulitzer Prize-winning novel and co-starring James Gandolfini, Mark Ruffalo and Patricia Clarkson.
Ghandi:
Gandhi was not a ruler of nations, nor did he have scientific gifts. Yet this small, modest man did what others before him could not. He lad an entire country to freedom - he gave his people hope. Gandhi, the man of the century, is explored in this breathtaking, unforgettable motion picture.
After 20 years in the making, this masterful epic garnered nine 1982 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Original Screenplay. In stirring detail, Gandhi's life, principles and power explode on the screen with vivid scenes such as the horrific massacre at Amritsar, where the British opened fire on 15,000 unarmed men, women and children, and the dramatic march to the sea where Gandhi led thousands of his fellow Indians to prove that sea salt belonged to all and was not just a British commodity. A distinguished cast of characters surrounds Academy Award-winning Ben Kingsley as Gandhi, including Candice Bergen, Martin Sheen, John Gielgud and Trevor Howard. A vision of the hearts and soul of a man, Gandhi is a classic epic as timeless as Gandhi himself.
