Minister but the villagers are not without initiative and, as their
plans get protracted, they find themselves facing moral and

A double-helping of Sandra Bullock comedies. In 'Miss Congeniality'
(2000), when the Miss United States beauty pageant receives a
threat from a notorious criminal, hardnosed FBI agent Gracie Hart
(Bullock) is assigned to go undercover as a contestant in the
competition and track him down. Gracie is none too happy about
this, and when top expert Victor Melling (Michael Caine) arrives to
help transform her from a tomboy into a convincingly elegant Miss
New Jersey, she proves to be a most difficult student.
Nevertheless, after Gracie enters the pageant, she soon forms a
strong bond with her fellow contestants, and begins to worry for
their safety as the killer continues to elude arrest. In the
sequel, 'Miss Congeniality 2' (2005), things haven't been going so
well for Gracie lately. Reeling from a broken romance and
frustrated to find her newfound fame is jeopardizing the undercover
work she loves, Gracie reluctantly agrees to serve the Bureau in
the only way possible: coifed and styled for the talk show circuit
as 'the face of the FBI'. Though resistant at first, she soon warms
to the attention and it's not long before she's getting into her
new role a little too much. Her new partner Sam Fuller (Regina
King), a tough, ambitious agent who is clearly not her biggest fan,
is the first to point out that the pampered Bureau star is turning
into FBI Barbie. But when Gracie's best friend, pageant winner
Cheryl Frazier (Heather Burns), and emcee Stan Fields (William
Shatner), are kidnapped in Las Vegas, Gracie's crime-fighting
instincts kick back in. Not wanting to risk losing their greatest
PR asset, the FBI top brass forbid her to get involved and charge
Sam with keeping her in line. But when it comes to breaking a
difficult case and helping her friends, there's nothing Gracie
won't do.

A collection of four films directed by Danny Boyle. '127 Hours'
(2010) traces the true story of trapped hiker Aron Ralston's fight
for survival. Setting out alone and telling no-one where he's
going, Ralston (James Franco) begins a hiking expedition in the
mountains of Utah. Young, and with a zest for life, he takes
rock-climbing in his stride, fearing nothing, with a permanent
smile on his face. Soon after crossing paths with fellow hikers
Kristi (Kate Mara) and Megan (Amber Tamblyn), however, Ralston
becomes trapped in a remote canyon when a falling boulder crushes
his arm. Over the following days, and with nobody to hear his calls
for help, Ralston undergoes a gruelling fight for survival that
tests his spirit to the limits, and ultimately decides whether he
lives or dies. The thriller '28 Days Later' (2002) follows what
could happen after a viral attack, with the virus so deadly that
within seconds the infected person is taken over by a murderous
rage, permanently. After 28 days there is only a handful of
non-infected survivors, but the virus is not the only thing they
have to contend with... In the futuristic thriller 'Sunshine'
(2007) it's 50 years from now and the sun is on its way out,
threatening mass destruction here on Earth. It falls to eight sexy
astronauts (including Cillian Murphy, Rose Byrne, Michelle Yeoh and
Chris Evans) who have been dispatched to the heart of the solar
system in a ship called, ominously, the Icarus II - to kickstart
the sputtering star. Finally, in the multi-award winning 'Slumdog
Millionaire' (2008), Jamal Malik (Dev Patel) is an 18-year-old
street kid from the slums of Mumbai who has managed to get through
to the final round on the Indian version of 'Who Wants to Be a
Millionaire'? But how can a young man from his background of
poverty have acquired the knowledge to be only one correct answer
away from winning 20 million rupees? With only one more question to
be asked, however, the dream turns to nightmare. As the hooter
sounds to signal the end of the show, Jamal is arrested and accused
of cheating. Nobody believes that he could really know all of the
answers he has given. As Jamal tells the story of his life to the
police, the reasons for his success begin to appear. Will Jamal be
freed to hear the final question and, if so, will he know the
answer?

Rob Epstein directs this drama based on the obscenity trial faced
by Beat poet Allen Ginsberg following the publication of his poem
'Howl'. Set in 1950s San Francisco, the film stars James Franco as
the young Ginsberg, who becomes a lynchpin of the Beat generation,
alongside the likes of Jack Kerouac (Todd Rotondi) and Neal Cassady
(Jon Prescott). Psychedelic animation sequences illustrating the
poem are interspersed with courtroom scenes in which Jake Ehlrich
and Ralph McIntosh play the opposing lawyers battling over the
slippery question of whether or not the poem has sufficient
literary merit to redeem its profane content.

Psychiatrist Andrew Marlowe has a perfectly ordered life--solitary,
perhaps, but full of devotion to his profession and the painting
hobby he loves. This order is destroyed when renowned painter
Robert Oliver attacks a canvas in the National Gallery of Art and
becomes his patient. In response, Marlowe finds himself going
beyond his own legal and ethical boundaries to understand the
secret that torments this genius, a journey that will lead him into
the lives of the women closest to Robert Oliver and toward a
tragedy at the heart of French Impressionism.
Ranging from American museums to the coast of Normandy, from the
late nineteenth century to the late twentieth, from young love to
last love, THE SWAN THIEVES is a story of obsession, the losses of
history, and the power of art to preserve human hope.
