The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas is a fictional story that offers a unique perspective on how prejudice, hatred and violence affect innocent people, particularly children, during wartime. Through the eyes of an 8-year-old boy largely shielded from the reality of World War II, we witness a forbidden friendship that forms between Bruno (Asa Butterfield), the son of Nazi commandant, and Schmuel (Jack Scanlon), a Jewish boy held captive in a concentration camp. Though the two are separated physically by a barbed wire fence, their lives become inescapably intertwined. The imagined story of Bruno and Shmuel sheds light on the brutality, senselessness and devastating consequences of war from an...
One God. Two Priests. Six People and a Cause... Set in Northern Ireland today, "Boxed" centers on an IRA cell that is holding a suspected informer. They plan to bring in an accommodating priest—a "tame" priest—to secretly provide last rites before they execute the suspect. Inspired by published reports, "Boxed" is the fictional story of what happens when they inadvertently bring in the wrong priest. Father Brendan, a young idealist (Tony-winner Tom Jordan Murphy), refuses to co-operate, and a riveting drama unfolds with challenges to each character's motives and faith. The violence and emotional intensity escalate as religion and politics collide.

When the package doesn’t come he begins to investigate those around him and in the process he lies,...
Meek mathematician David Sumner (Dustin Hoffman), working in supposed seclusion, has taken up residence in the small Cornwall town where his young wife Amy (Susan George) was raised. He immediately becomes the butt of jokes for the local toughs, who see him as a milquetoast and Amy as fair game to prove their macho superiority. Immature and frustrated, Amy encourages the attentions of the louts who have come to work on their roof, precipitating a series of harrowing events - of which a brutal rape is only the beginning. Amidst it all, David discovers his own sense of primitive outrage, and his own acumen for violence.
Often alternating between sci-fi and horror throughout his career, director John Carpenter indulges perfectly in the former with MEMOIRS OF AN INVISIBLE MAN. Carpenter skillfully tells the story of a content businessman, played by Chevy Chase, who is turned invisible in a strange lab accident. Unusual hijinks ensue as he is chased by the FBI, scientists, and a beautiful documentary filmmaker. They all have their own agendas with the invisible man, none of them, however, are in his best interests. State-of-the-art special effects are used elegantly in this fine film that combines the best elements of sci-fi with both dramatic and comedic storylines. Chevy Chase plays up the hardships...
