 | Closer The lives of four strangers intersect in a complex series of events and affairs over a four-year period in this compelling drama starring Julia Roberts, Jude Law, Natalie Portman and Clive Owen. Dan (Law) is a writer who falls for Alice (Portman), a pretty ex-stripper who he meets upon seeing her hit by a car. Jumping forward several years, Dan has written his first novel ? a story based on Alice's life ? but their relationship begins to sour with Dan's attraction to photographer Anna (Roberts). Enter Larry (Owen), a dermatologist who in an odd twist of fate begins seeing Anna. Directed by Mike Nichols, the film deconstructs the lives of these four disparate characters as they experience a searing range of passions, emotions and betrayals. Screenplay by Patrick Marber, based on his play. |
 | Paparazzi A movie star decides to fight back against a quartet of dangerously aggressive celebrity photographers in this pulse-pounding revenge thriller. With his latest film thrusting him onto Hollywood's A-list, hard-working actor and family man Bo Laramie has finally made it. But with the territory comes the inevitable press crush. That's when Bo finds himself involved in a series of escalating confrontations with a sleazy photographer whose venomous actions endanger Bo's family...and prompt his wrath. Cole Hauser, Robin Tunney, Dennis Farina, Daniel Baldwin and Tom Sizemore star. Directed by Paul Abascal; written by Forrest Smith. |
 | Exorcist: The Beginning This is where the demonic horror all began! This prequel to William Friedkin's 1973 classic chronicles Fr. Merrin's first battle against demonic possession. Set in 1949, Fr. Merrin (Stellan Skarsgard) ? played by Max von Sydow in the original film ? is a fallen-away priest whose loss of faith prompts him to concentrate on archeology. Sent to Kenya to investigate the discovery of a buried ancient church that is in pristine condition, Merrin finds himself up against something far stranger than any archeological find ? and far more evil. James D'Arcy, Izabella Scorupco and Ben Cross co-star. Directed by Renny Harlin (Deep Blue Sea); written by Alexi Hawley; story by William Wisher, Caleb Carr; based on characters created by William Peter Blatty |
