Relating
The story of elderly couple Anne and Georges (Emmanuelle Riva and Jean-Louis Trintigant), Michael Haneke's Oscar-winning Amour
begins with a tragedy and then fleshes out the life of the couple in
their twilight years. Though devoted to one another, Anne and George's
relationship changes due to strokes, partial paralysis, and the
different ways they will need to care for one another. Their daughter (Isabelle Huppert)
would like to see caretaking done by professionals, in a nursing home,
but the husband and wife would rather do for one another until,
eventually, there is nothing left to do. On DVD and Blu Ray.Low key, wryly self-aware, slightly depressed Martin has recently moved to Nevada in This Is Martin Bonner, taking a job helping recently released prison inmates rejoin society. When he forms a bond with former inamate Travis (Richmond Arquette), their friendship highlights their similiarites as much as their differences: though both middle aged men are starting over, Travis wants a second chance with his old life and a renewed connection with his daughter, and recently divorced Martin is beginning again... a new life in a new town.
Abandoned as a baby, blue-eyed Bo Wa Chuen was raised by his adopted family in a poor fishing community in the Cantonese Floating City. When his adopted father leaves and the family can no longer afford to take care of him, Bo begins to climb the social ladder, beginning as a laborer and enentually becoming a valued engineer to Hong Kong's British colonials... but his identity and value in society always comes back to his half-Caucasian hertitage, and his heart lies on the fishing boats where he began. With Josie Ho and Bau Hei Jing.
A Giant World
After her mother's death, teenaged M.K. (Amanda Seyfried) reconnects with father in the animated Epic,
but finds that he is to preoccupied with his theory of tiny people
living in the woods to even notice her. Walking through the woods, she
realizes her father was right: shrunk down to their size, M.K. is thrust
into the battles of the tiny people trying to keep the forest alive.
M.K. is entrusted with the leaf pod that will heal the forest, and, with
the help of the captain of the Leaf Men (Colin Farrell) and a scrappy loner (Josh Hutcherson), she must keep the pod safe from the Boggans (Christoph Waltz) who would corrupt the forest. With Aziz Ansari and Chris O'Dowd. On DVD and Blu Ray.
Hunted
Retired veteran Benjamin Ford (Robert De Niro) lives in a remote cabin in the woods, spending his time with Johnny Cash records and flashbacks of Bosnia in Killing Season. When he meets Emil (John Travolta), a Bosnian, the two share stories, have a drink, and go hunting together the next morning... but Emil is 
really
hunting Ford, and will do anything to make the old soldier "confess."
As they navigate the woods, they alternate roles as hunter and hunted,
each using his time with the upper hand to unravel the mystery of the
other, but in the end, will either of them get the answer they need? On
DVD and Blu Ray.

Colette (Andrea Riseborough) is arrested after an unsuccessful IRA bombing attempt in Shadow Dancer, but she strikes a deal with MI5 agent Mac (Clive Owen)
to earn her fredom. Collette's bombing failed because she doesn't want
to kill anyone, and she's only willing to inform on her IRA contacts
because she's promised "no one dies, no one gets hurt"-- the only deal
she can agree to, because her Belfast cells are run by her brother (Aiden Gillen). Mac fights to keep his deal with Colette, but his higher-ups (Gillian Anderson)
start pushing to capitalize on her as an asset, and gradually "no one
dies, no one gets hurt" might not protect Colette, much less her family.
On DVD and Blu Ray.
Wrongly Accused
Revisiting the case of the West Memphis 3 (most recently documented in the third Paradise Lost film), the documentary West of Memphis tells the story of the three boys accused and convicted of a 1993 murder. Amassing a case that not only was there was not enough evidence to convict the boys, but that all the evidence proving their innocence was thrown out or considered inadmissable, the film explores the Arkansas court that convicted them, and how public outrage finally led to their release.
Arrested for kidnapping and murder 1970, Angela Davis became an activist icon. Free Angela and All Political Prisoners
tells Davis' story as an educated woman, member of the Communist Party,
and Black Panther. After her political beliefs pubilcly ended her
career teaching at UCLA, she began receiving death threats, and she
bought guns in case she would have to defend herself. When the guns used
in a courtroom standoff were traced back to her, Davis was placed on
the FBI's Most Wanted list. The film tells the story of Angela's trial
and activism that help form a snapshot of the gender and racial divide
of the early 70s.Comedies
Lindsey (Anna Kendrick) is out bowling with her easy-going, supportive boyfriend Ben (John Francis Daley) when the Rapture claims half the population in Rapture-Palooza. The post-rapture world has to put up with the occasional falling brimstone, harrassment from foul mouthed crows, and trash-talking locusts that are immune to most bug sprays, but the worst part is The Beast (Craig Robinson), who rules the world from Lindsey's home town of Seattle. When The Beast descides to make Lindsey his bride, she and Ben have to find a way to stop The Beast and end the End Of Days... and God (Ken Jeong) isn't going to be much help.Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan's sex tape goes awry-- but not the way you'd think-- in Scary Movie V. The children from their wild night go missing, and their hauntings and posessions spoof every horror movie made in the last few years, forcing Ashley Tisdale and Simon Rex to find a way stop the paranormal activities (wink wink, nudge nudge) in order to get on with their lives.
