Truman Burbank (Jim Carrey) has a seemingly idyllic lifestyle: a secure job, a loving family and a peaceful home. Yet, unbeknownst to him, his entire existence has been one long TV series, the people around him Hollywood actors, the town a massive studio set, and the whole show orchestrated by a visionary director (Ed Harris). As the truth begins to dawn on Truman, he resolves to break free, no matter the consequences for the programme's ratings. This comic fantasy was one of the most critically acclaimed mainstream movies of recent years, and was nominated for a Best Film Oscar.
Clive Owen and Billy Crudup star in this drama written and directed by Guillaume Canet. When criminal Chris (Owen) is released on good behaviour after serving several years in prison for murder, his brother Frank (Crudup), a promising young policeman, apprehensively meets him at the gate. Agreeing to help him back to a life of normality, Frank sorts out his brother with a job, a home and even helps him get in contact with his children and estranged ex-wife. After all his help Chris refuses to change and falls back into a life of crime, much to the dismay of his caring brother and father (James Caan).
Mixed martial arts action drama, starring Nick Nolte and Tom Hardy, in which a fractured family relationship is tested even further when two estranged brothers enter the same prestigious fighting competition. Tommy Conlon (Hardy) and his brother, Brendan (Joel Egerton), are the children of former boxer and recovering alcoholic Paddy Conlon (Nolte) - and both have issues with him. Tommy, tortured by his recent experience as a soldier, reconnects with his father to some extent when he enlists him as his coach for the upcoming Sparta mixed martial arts competition, which Tommy hopes to win in order to be able to give the prize money to the family of a fallen comrade. Brendan, in contrast, needs the money to provide for his wife and children after losing his job. How will the brothers cope if the tournament forces them to go against the fraternal bond and do battle?
Gavin O'Connor directs this action Western. Natalie Portman stars as Jane Hammond, gun-wielding wife of Bill 'Ham' Hammond (Noah Emmerich). When Ham is severely injured in a duel with the Bishop Boys, a band of thugs headed by the devious Colin (Ewan McGregor), the couple go on the run. With the gang hot on their heels, Jane turns to old flame Dan Frost (Joel Edgerton) to help the pair stake out against the approaching mob, whose past with Jane goes deeper than is at first apparent.
