Selma HD720p 54MB
Biopic that tells the story of a movement, it chronicles the tumultuous three-month period in 1965, when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (David Oyelowo) led a dangerous campaign to secure equal voting rights in the face of violent opposition. The epic march from Selma to Montgomery culminated in President Johnson (Tom Wilkinson) signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965, one of the most significant victories for the civil rights movement. Alessandro Nivola, Giovanni Ribisi, Cuba Gooding Jr., Common, Carmen Ejogo, Lorraine Toussaint, Tim Roth, Oprah Winfrey and Dylan Baker are also part of the cast.
Could just as well be a documentary about Ferguson, Missouri 50 years later. If the cops were stronger armed.
Into The Woods HD720p 58MB HD1080p 154MB
Full trailer with some actual singing for this Disney production based on the "humorous and heartfelt" Broadway musical by Stephen Sondheim. It follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel - all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them. Cast members include Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, James Corden, Anna Kendrick, Chris Pine, Tracey Ullman, Christine Baranski and Johnny Depp. Directed by Rob Marshall (Chicago, Memoirs of a Geisha, Nine).
Just not my cup of tea. Also, a four minutes behind-the-scenes featurette: Feat HD720p 210MB Feat HD1080p 383MB.
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies HD720p 121MB HD1080p 201MB
The final - possibly forever - trailer for the final Hobbit movie that brings to an epic conclusion the adventures of Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman), Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage) and the Company of Dwarves. Having reclaimed their homeland from the Dragon Smaug (Benedict Cumberbatch), the Company has unwittingly unleashed a deadly force into the world. Enraged, Smaug rains his fiery wrath down upon the defenseless men, women and children of Lake-town. Obsessed above all else with his reclaimed treasure, Thorin sacrifices friendship and honor to hoard it as Bilbo's frantic attempts to make him see reason drive the Hobbit towards a desperate and dangerous choice. But there are even greater dangers ahead. Unseen by any but the Wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen), the great enemy Sauron has sent forth legions of Orcs in a stealth attack upon the Lonely Mountain.
I have a feeling the Academy finally can't deny a nomination for Best Animated Picture. 1080p file originally was corrupt, this one should work.
Let's Kill Ward's Wife HD720p 69MB
Dark, make that very dark, comedy about helping a friend out of a bad relationship by any means necessary. Everyone hates Ward's wife (Dagmara Dominczyk) and wants her dead, Ward (Donald Faison) most of all. But when his friends' (among them Patrick Wilson, Scott Foley, Amy Acker, Marika Dominczyk) murderous fantasies turn into an (accidental) reality, they have to deal with a whole new set of problems - like how to dispose of the body and still make their 3 p.m. tee time.
It's also sort of a family movie. Dagmara Dominczyk is married to Wilson, Marika Dominczyk is the wife of actor and first-time director Foley. Which surely lead to amusing scenes on the set while making the movie.
Winter Sleep - Kis uykusu HD720p 26MB
UK trailer for this drama from Turkey about a former actor who runs a small hotel in central Anatolia with his young wife Nihal with whom he has a stormy relationship and his sister Necla who is suffering from her recent divorce. In winter as the snow begins to fall, the hotel turns into a shelter but also an inescapable place that fuels their animosities.
Movies from Nuri Bilge Ceylan aren't exactly an easy watch (with this one running over three hours). But with Winter Sleep winning the Golden Palm this year in Cannes, and being Turkey's official Foreign Language Oscar submission, I thought I at least include the trailer so that you get an idea how it looks.
