Folk Music
Trying to make his way in the early 60s folk scene, Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) is just struggling to get by in the Coen Brothers' Inside Llewyn Davis.
After his partner's suicide, he struggles to find work as a solo act,
singing and playing his guitar anywhere he can book a gig in the
burgeoning Greenwich Village folk clubs, but he never seems to get
ahead. Wandering the streets, looking for paying jobs and places to
sleep, his life crosses paths with a more popular folk singing couple (Carey Mulligan and Justin Timberlake)
who have a complicated history with Llewyn, a job singing background
for a novelty song, and a Chicago-bound road trip with a beat poet (Garrett Hedlund) and jazz musician (John Goodman) to audition for F Murray Abraham
and land a steady job. Throughout his travels in snowy New York, Llewyn
keeps looking for his next opportunity, even though each step forward
seems to put him two steps back. On DVD and Blu Ray.
The Oscar-nominated Belgian The Broken Circle Breakdown
is the story of America-obsessed Didier and his romance with free
spirited tattoo artist Elise. As their relationship evolves, Didier
shares his other great passion-- a love of bluegrass music-- even
inviting Elise to join his band. From the blush of first love to their
hardships and obstacles, they score their lives to their bluegrass band,
adapting to unexpected changes and developments as individuals and as a
couple.
Against Corruption
Young Liesel's childhood in 1930s Germany is fraught with dangers and injustice in The Book Thief. Given over to her caring but harassed foster parents Hans and Rosa (Geoffrey Rush and Emily Watson), Liesel is kept safe while her communist mother flees the rising influence of the Nazi party. Though the young girl is a thoughtful lover of books, she's forced to join the the Hitler Youth, and exposed to intolerance she doesn't understand and the inconceivable burning of books. At odds with the world around her, Liesel and her family have to keep the secret of the books she "borrows" or become a target of the more and more influential Nazis. With Rainer Bock.
A direct sequel to his 2010 film Outrage, Beat Takeshi's Beyond Outrage
continues the story, with scheming underboss Kato having taken over the
leadership of the Sanno Yakuza clan and former boss Otomo (Takeshi) in prison. Among betrayals and manipulations, both gangsters (Ryo Kase) and police (Yukata Matsushige)
try to prod the newly aligned Yakuza groups into feuds and bloody
battles, but whether they're trying to shatter the organized crime
families or gain control of them, they all see an early release for
Otomo as a game-changer with consequences for all the Yakuza families.
The friendly competition in the LARP (Live Action Role Playing) world of Demons & Dwarves has been overtaken by Derek (Mike Smith) and his win-at-all-costs strategies in Lloyd the Conqueror. A community college professor by day, he offers a passing grade to lazy underachievers Lloyd, Patrick (Jesse Reid),
and Oswald if they'll join the game. Instead of becoming the easily
defeated losers Derek intended, Lloyd and his friends recruit
ultra-violent women's self-defense instructor Cassandra (Tegan Moss) and enlist the help of the White Wizard (Brian Posehn), threatening to topple Derek's rule and restore balance to the world of Demons & Dwarves.
Out of Retirement
Henry (Tom Everett Scott) put his military service behind him to enjoy a quiet life as a park ranger in Enemies Closer,
but the forest idyll on the US/Canadian border is shattered when a
drug-smuggling plane goes down in his park. Henry is contending with the
accusations of the brother (Orlando Jones) of a fallen soldier when a ruthless drug dealer (Jean-Claude Van Damme)
arrives to reclaim the lost shipment, and he is called upon to come to
terms with his war torn past and fight for what's right.
Seeking a quiet life after his violent days as a DEA agent, Phil Broker (Jason Statham) and his young daughter move to a small Louisiana town in Homefront. Though they have an easy relationship with the town sheriff (Clancy Brown), they quickly make enemies of a local family (Kate Bosworth)
and find themselves on the outside of an insular community of small
town meth labs. Standing up to the locals puts Broker in the sights of
small-time kingpin Gator (James Franco), and he's suddenly thrown into another drug war... this time, without a badge or back-up. With Winona Ryder.
