The Trial of the Chicago 7 HD1080p 29MB
The story of 7 people on trial stemming from various charges surrounding the uprising at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois. Among the extensive cast are Sacha Baron Cohen, Eddie Redmayne, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Jeremy Strong, Mark Rylance, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Frank Langella, William Hurt and Michael Keaton. Written and directed by Aaron Sorkin (Molly's Game).
Seems very relevant at a time when the current US regime leader is abusing the Justice Department to punish his critics, while at the same time ignoring the violence caused by his supporters.
Will start streaming on Netflix October 16th. An earlier teaser: HD1080p 24MB.
The Father HD720p 95MB
Chamber drama about Anthony (Anthony Hopkins), an affluent Londoner unwilling to admit to himself and to his daughter Anne (Olivia Colman) that he is no longer able to care for himself. When Anne brings in a nurse, Laura (Imogen Poots), to provide care for Anthony in advance of Anne’s planned move to Paris, he goes from charming and flirty to brash and insulting. Neither his daughter nor his nurse know which version of Anthony will show up each day. Olivia Williams, Mark Gatiss and Rufus Sewell are also part of the cast.
Synchronic HD720p 97MB
Sci-fi movie with horror elements. When New Orleans paramedics and longtime best friends Steve (Anthony Mackie) and Dennis (Jamie Dornan) are called to a series of bizarre, gruesome accidents, they chalk it up to the mysterious new party drug found at the scene. But after Dennis’s oldest daughter suddenly disappears, Steve stumbles upon a terrifying truth about the supposed psychedelic called Synchronic that will challenge everything he knows about reality - and the flow of time itself.
Festival reviews have been all over the place.
American Utopia HD1080p 24MB
Short trailer for the filmed version of the 2019 Broadway show, based on David Byrne's recent album and tour of the same name. Deeply thoughtful and wildly exuberant, Byrne’s theatrical concert lit up Broadway last year with his trademark mix of rhythm and ideas. Working with a vibrant new band and dancers, the former Talking Heads frontman turned his music into an antidote to America’s current divisions. Directed by Spike Lee (BlacKkKlansman, Malcolm X, Chi-Raq).
Will start burning down the house on HBO starting October 17th.
The Glorias HD720p 91MB
Full trailer for this unusual biopic about journalist, fighter, and feminist Gloria Steinem, an indelible icon known for her world-shaping activism, her guidance of the revolutionary women’s movement, and her writing that has impacted generations. Four actresses portray Steinem at different ages (among them, Julianne Moore and Alicia Vikander), tracing her influential journey to prominence. The film also introduces a number of iconic women who had a profound influence on Gloria and the women’s movement, including Dorothy Pitman Hughes (Janelle Monáe), Flo Kennedy (Lorraine Toussaint), Bella Abzug (Bette Midler), Dolores Huerta (Monica Sanchez) and Wilma Mankiller (Kimberly Guerrero). Directed Julie Taymor (Frida, Across the Universe, Titus).
Will start streaming on Amazon Prime September 30.
