This week there is only one mainstream release, the latest in the series of Ice Age films, in this case, “Ice Age: Continental Drift”. There are some big Ice Age fans. I’m not really one of those, so it doesn’t get me too excited over it.
Then there are a slew of Limited Release films which may or may not be shown in your area. “Easy Money” is a film of drugs and organized crime and a young guy roped into being a drug runner. “Red Lights” is a psychological mystery thriller about the paranormal and a well known psychic who suddenly reappears just after his biggest critic has died. Sigourney Weaver and Robert De Niro star. “The Imposter” is a documentary film about a young French boy who convinces a Texas family that he is their son who disappeared 3 years ago. “Trishna” is a story of a tragic relationship. “Ballplayer: Pelotero” is another documentary following the dreams of two baseball players in the Dominican Republic who may have a chance to make the big leagues. “Union Square” is the story of Jenny who while being estranged from her family is visited by her sister Lucy just as she is debating committing to a long term relationship with her fiance. “Drunkboat” is a coming of age story about a boy and his boat starring John Malkovich, John Goodman, Dana Delaney, and Jacob Zachar. “Farewell, My Queen” is a period story based on a novel about the life in the court of Marie Antoinette in the days prior to the outbreak of the revolution. “The Obama Effect” is a Charles Dutton story about a man after suffering a heart attack, throws himself into the Obama campaign and finds real meaning in his life.
