A 7-episode HBO limited series focused on family and community, Mare of Easttown stars Kate Winslet as Mare Sheehan, a respected small-town Pennsylvania detective investigating a brutal local murder while also balancing her own personal life, which is rapidly falling apart around her.
Considered a local hero for a game-clinching jump shot on her high school basketball team, Mare is the sole detective on her police force, which spends most of its time handling drug-related offenses. Behind the scenes, Mare is dealing with the unaddressed loss of her son, running a busy household filled with her mother, teenage daughter, and grandson, and an ex-husband who lives a stone's throw away with his new fiance.
As pressure mounts to solve a missing person's case growing increasingly cold, the murder of a teen girl finds Mare obsessed with bringing the killer to justice in a town where everyone is a potential suspect.
Winner of 4 Emmy Awards: Outstanding Lead Actress, Outstanding Supporting Actor, Outstanding Supporting Actress and Outstanding Production Design.
Collection of six feature films from director Christopher Nolan. In
'Memento' (2000) Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce) is suffering from
acute short-term memory loss and is unable to remember anything for
more than a few minutes at a time. This makes things very difficult
when his one mission in life is to track down his wife's killer who
escaped from the scene of the crime. 'Batman Begins' (2005)
explores the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight's
emergence as a force for good in Gotham. In the wake of his
parents' murder, disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne
(Christian Bale) travels the world seeking the means to fight
injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He
returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego: Batman, a masked
crusader who uses his strength, intellect and an array of high-tech
deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city. In
'The Prestige' (2006) Rupert Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred
Borden (Bale) are London-based magicians of the highest order, both
blessed with spectacular powers of deception and both cursed with
unrelenting envy for one another's skills. When Alfred performs an
awe-inspiring trick for which there seems no logical explanation,
the friendly competition shared between the pair turns to deadly
rivalry as the enraged Rupert determines to uncover his rival's
deepest secrets. 'The Dark Knight' (2008), sequel to 'Batman
Begins', sees Gotham's hero squaring-up to a new kid on the block -
psychotic prankster The Joker (Heath Ledger, in the role that won
him a posthumous Oscar for Best Supporting Actor). In the space of
a year, Batman, aided by Commissioner Gordon (Gary Oldman) and new
District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart), has managed to rid
Gotham's streets of the organised crime gangs that once ravaged the
city. Things seem to be looking up, although on the personal front,
Bruce Wayne discovers he has a rival in his affections for main
squeeze Rachel Dawes (Maggie Gyllenhaal) in the shape of the new
D.A., who, as a political climber, likes to keep his cards close to
his chest. But just when the authorities think they're finally
making progress in their fight against crime, the appearance on the
streets of a sinister new figure, with a demented grin and a
passion for chaos, causes panic among the good people of Gotham,
and leads to a battle of wits between Batman and The Joker which
threatens to get extremely personal. In 'Inception' (2010) Dom Cobb
(Leonardo DiCaprio) is a professional thief with a difference: the
spoils he goes after are not material objects but the thoughts,
dreams and secrets buried in the minds of other people. This rare
talent has cost him dear, rendering him a solitary fugitive
stripped of everything he ever really cared about. When he is
offered a chance for redemption by reversing the process and
planting an idea rather than stealing it, he and his team of
specialists find themselves pitted against a dangerous enemy that
appears to pre-empt their every move. Finally, 'The Dark Knight
Rises' (2012), the final film in Nolan's Batman trilogy, set eight
years on from the events of 'The Dark Knight', sees Batman
returning to save Gotham City from the evil clutches of brutal
terrorist Bane (Tom Hardy) and his enigmatic sidekick, Selina Kyle
(Anne Hathaway). However, Batman's ability to act as an avenging
angel is curtailed by the fact that he is now on Gotham City Police
Department's Most Wanted list, having assumed responsibility for
the crimes of deceased District Attorney Harvey Dent.
