With a baby on the way, however, and a strained marriage, stress and frustration take center stage. When his wife accidentally stumbles down the stairs and dies from her injuries, Brody's mental state goes from bad to one of utter despair.

Set against the backdrop of 1960s San Francisco, BIRTH OF THE DRAGON is a modern take on the classic movies that Bruce Lee was known for.  It takes its inspiration from the epic and still controversial showdown between an up-and-coming Bruce Lee and kung fu master Wong Jack Man – a battle that gave birth to a legend.

2017 Starring: Francesca Eastwood, Clifton Collins Jr., Marlon Young and Peter Vack Directed By: Natalia Leite A couple weeks ago, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos announced plans to roll back title IX protections for victims of sexual assault established under the Obama administration. Instead of helping victims of rape to navigate the legal process she hopes to protect the innocent victims of false accusation. Rape statistics vary greatly from source to source but I've yet to come across any study that postulates the number of false accusations out numbers actual assaults. And yet here we are. In a time where an equivalency is being drawn between the two. M.F.A. is the story of Noelle (Eastwood) an art student who is raped and decides to take decisive action when she sees a system that turns a blind eye. Early in the film Professor Rudd (Young) tells Noelle to "make something ugly." He encourages her to fail. He asks her to push herself outside of the comfort

Episode 166 We're back and so is our favorite repertory player, Michael Denniston, of War Machine vs. War Horse.

COCOLORS 2017 Directed By Toshihisa Yokoshima Aki isn’t a brave little boy, but he’s dedicated nonetheless to safeguarding his sickly, mute friend Fuyu. They and their little gang live deep underground, in the concrete warrens to which survivors have fled following the eruption of Mt. Fuji. The community is in decline, however, as illness and despair take their toll. Fuyu dreams of the outside world, which he is too frail to ever reach. But what colour is the sky out there? The second film in the Gasoline Mask project of maverick Shibuya-based animators Kamikaze Douga, COCOLORS showcases their signature skill with cel-shaded 3D CG. The film’s meticulous evocation of its grim and cluttered world owes a deliberate aesthetic debt to printmaking, a principle echoed in COCOLORS’ story. A distinctive work of high-standard animation, COCOLORS is a convincing expression of ecological truths and consequences. SCARECROW ISLAND 2017 Directed By Park Hyemi Among the

Benny (Coopersmith) is a record collector hunting down a rare Charlie Parker LP and an honest opinion of his shirt.

2017 Directed By: Navin Ramaswaran Starring: Lora Burke, Robert Notman, and Will Conlon Written By: J.

An audience following a tale created by a compromised character is left unbalanced and questioning almost everything they see.

The only things she seems to feel are utter satisfaction and self-righteousness. She has pure conviction and lacks any self-doubt, a luxury not often granted to the emotionally stable.      Early in the film, Agnes crosses paths with Mike (Notman) a private investigator following up l
