Racy romantic farce meets pop musical in Spain's box-office smash The Other Side of the Bed (El otro lado de la cama), an effervescent comedy set in modern Madrid. The film follows the intertwining and increasingly complicated love lives of two couples, who give voice to their roiling emotions in spontaneous bursts of song and dance. Award-winning filmmaker Emilio MartÃnez-Lázaro (What Max Said, His Master's Voice) directs a delicious cast of acclaimed young performers, including Paz Vega (Talk To Her, Sex and Lucia), Natalia Verbeke (Jump Tomorrow, dot the i), Ernesto Alterio (Deseo aka Beyond Desire) and Guillermo Toledo (Intacto), Alberto San Juan (Insomnio) and MarÃa Esteve (Nada en la nevera aka Nothing in the Fridge).
The Other Side of the Bed was one of Spain's top-grossing movies of 2002 and a great critical success. It received six 2002 Goya Award nominations (the Spanish equivalent of the Academy Award®), including Film and Best Director, as well as acting nods for Toledo, San Juan and Esteve. The film also won three awards at the Festival de Malaga Cine Español, including Best Picture, Best Director and Audience Favorite.
In a small Madrid café, Pedro (Guillermo Toledo) tries to convince his girlfriend Paula (Natalia) that her desire to leave him is just a phase. Paula is apologetic, but there is no going back: she has fallen in love with someone else. Stunned and despondent, Pedro seeks comfort from his friends, Javier (Ernesto Alterio) and his girlfriend Sonia (Paz Vega).
What Pedro doesn't know is that Paula's new man is none other than Javier, his best buddy and tennis partner. Javier promises Paula that he will soon tell Sonia the truth, but his resolve quickly crumbles. Torn between two beautiful, vibrant women and his oldest friend, Javier scrambles to maintain the status quo through an escalating series of lies and ruses.
Days pass, and Pedro's heart is far from healed. His buddies, including Javier and the skirt-chasing Rafa (Alberto San Juan) counsel him to forget Paula, but to no avail. Determined to learn the identity of his rival, Pedro enlists the professional services of Sagaz (Ramón Barea) a crackpot private eye who nurtures some of the strangest conspiracy theories east of the Atlantic. Meanwhile, Javier tries to distract Pedro by fixing him up with Pilar (MarÃa Esteve), a nonstop talker and obsessive romantic. While Javier sneaks off with Paula for a romantic weekend, Pedro enlists Sonia's help in eluding the smitten Pilar. As Sonia reassures the depressed Pedro about his desirability, her sympathy evolves into attraction. The game of musical beds is about to get even more complicatedÂ… -

While the May 1968 Paris student riots--which eventually shut down most of the French government--are happening around them, the three friends develop a relationship unlike anything Matthew has ever experienced, or will ever encounter again. -

Academy Award® winners Tom Hanks ("Philadelphia," "Forrest Gump") and Catherine Zeta-Jones ("Chicago") star in "The Terminal," under the direction of Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Steven Spielberg ("Schindler’s List," "Saving Private Ryan").
"The Terminal" tells the story of Viktor Navorski (Tom Hanks), a visitor to New York from Eastern Europe, whose homeland erupts in a fiery coup while he is in the air en route to America. Stranded at Kennedy Airport with a passport from nowhere, he is unauthorized to actually enter the United States and must improvise his days and nights in the terminalÂ’s international transit lounge until the war at home is over.
As the weeks and months stretch on, Viktor finds the compressed universe of the terminal to be a richly complex world of absurdity, generosity, ambition, amusement, status, serendipity and even romance with a beautiful flight attendant named Amelia (Catherine Zeta-Jones). But Viktor has long worn out his welcome with airport official Frank Dixon, who considers him a bureaucratic glitch, a problem he cannot control but wants desperately to erase.
"The Terminal" also stars Emmy winner Stanley Tucci (TV’s "Winchell," "Road to Perdition") as Frank Dixon. Rounding out the main cast are Chi McBride (TV’s "Boston Public"), Diego Luna ("Y Tu Mama, Tambien"), Barry "Shabaka" Henley ("Ali"), Kumar Pallana ("The Royal Tenenbaums"), Zoë Saldana ("Drumline"), Eddie Jones ("Seabiscuit") and Jude Ciccolella ("Down With Love").
Walter F. Parkes ("Catch Me If You Can"), Steven Spielberg and Laurie MacDonald ("The Ring") are producing "The Terminal," with Patricia Whitcher, Jason Hoffs and Andrew Niccol serving as executive producers. The screenplay is by Sacha Gervasi and Jeff Nathanson from a story by Niccol. -
This fearful yet wonderfully satirical take on 1950s housewives is based on the book by Ira Levin. In the quaint suburban town of Stepford, Connecticut, the women have been transformed by their husbands into a totally submissive, near-robotic state where they are overly happy and totally compliant. When a new couple arrives (Nicole Kidman and Matthew Broderick) they must figure out where they fall in this web of weirdness. A remake of the 1975 adaption, Frank Oz presents a dramatic reworking of this horror classic. -
Hilary Duff plays Sam, a good-hearted Cinderella stuck in the fairy-tale-gone-wrong atmosphere of modern-day Los Angeles. Enslaved by an evil, BOTOX-junky step-mom (a hilarious Jennifer Coolidge) Sam is forced to scrub floors at her late father's diner, thus earning the eternal disdain of the snooty popular kids in school.
Luckily she has a friend in artsy nerd Carter (Dan Byrd), and a text-message romance with some poetic schoolmate she's never met. She also has a fairy godmother in the sweet diner manager (Regina King), who helps Sam get decked out and disguised for the Halloween dance.
At the dance, she discovers her prince is one of the popular kids, Austin Ames (Chad Michael Murray). Happily ever after seems like a long shot, though, because Austin is burdened by pressures at school and at home, and Sam can't shake her "diner girl" inferiority complex. -
When a kidnapping threat is held over two wealthy heiresses in the Hamptons, inept FBI agents Kevin (Marlon Wayans) and Marcus Copeland (Shawn Wayans), try to help out by disguising themselves as WHITE CHICKS in this wacky screwball comedy.
With a little help from the FBI's prosthetics department, the agents don blonde wigs, blue contact lenses, and pale body paint to transform themselves into two Hamptons-bound sisters looking to live it up for the weekend.
Miraculously the agents find themselves a surprise hit with the Hamptons set, providing plenty of laughs and quizzical looks as they frequently slip out of character.
The lewd jokes come thick and fast, providing plenty of opportunities for the Wayans brothers to flex their comedic muscles. They poke gentle fun at a number of targets, mostly along gender and race lines, but also at spoiled teenage girls, and botox-riddled fashionistas.
Scenarios are engineered to heighten the awkwardness of the disguises, including a dance competition, shopping sprees, and a fashion show. Director Keenen Ivory Wayans (SCARY MOVIE) manipulates his characters' flimsy attempts to pass themselves off as white women to provide plenty of gross-out, body-related humor, but also wraps the film up with a few salient lessons in life for the bumbling detectives. -
Based on true events, OPEN WATER follows an American couple, Daniel and Susan, (Daniel Travis and Blanchard Ryan) on an island holiday. Upon arrival at their hotel, we learn that Daniel and Susan's relationship is under strain from their workaholic lifestyles, and they need a vacation even more than they realized.
The next morning, the loving and rested couple, certified scuba divers, board a local dive boat for an underwater tour of the reef. The boat is crowded with other vacationers, and due to a series of innocent miscommunications and a distracted crew, the couple is, after only 40 minutes or so underwater, accidentally left behind.
What follows is the story of their ordeal: cold, alone and miles from land, the couple is adrift in shark-infested waters.
While shining a light on how we often take our comfortable lives and our relationships for granted, OPEN WATER reminds us of the fragility and vulnerability of modern man in relation to the vast and indiscriminant power of nature.
