Directed by Steven Spielberg, and based on an unrealised project
developed by the late Stanley Kubrick, 'A.I.' tells the story of
David (Haley Joel Osment), the first lab-built artificial child
capable of feeling real emotions. David is adopted by Monica and
Henry Swinton (Frances O'Connor and Sam Robards), a couple whose
own biological child has been placed in cryogenic suspension
awaiting a cure for a currently fatal medical condition. The
Swintons seems to adapt well to the new child in their lives, but
when their own son is cured and sent home, it jeopardises David's
position in the family and he soon finds himself all alone on a
dangerous adventure in the outside world.
David Lightman (Matthew Broderick) is a young computer whizz who
hacks into what he believes is a new line of video games, little
knowing that it is in fact NORAD, America's defence program. He
inadvertently creates a hostile global situation, placing the world
on the brink of nuclear war. Together with his girlfriend Jennifer
(Ally Sheedy) and a misanthropic computer expert (John Wood), David
must fight to prevent an atomic meltdown.

Tim Burton's film version of the Stephen Sondheim musical starring
Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter. Based on a 'penny dreadful'
tale (which later became an urban myth) from the mid-19th Century,
this musical tells the tale of Benjamin Barker (Depp), a barber who
returns to London after spending years in exile for a crime he
didn't commit. He soon discovers from pie-maker Mrs Lovett (Bonham
Carter) that, in his absence, his wife has taken her own life and
his daughter is now in the care of the man who had him sent away -
the dastardly Judge Turpin (Alan Rickman). Seeking revenge and
filled with a murderous rage, Barker sets up a barber's shop above
Mrs Lovett's premises. Now calling himself Sweeney Todd, Barker
kills off all his customers with a razor to the throat and sends
their cadavers to the shop below to be used as a tasty new filling
for Mrs Lovett's meat pies. What was once the worst pie shop in
London quickly becomes one of the city's most popular eateries, but
Barker won't be satisfied until he can lure Judge Turpin into the
barber's chair...

Guillermo Arriaga writes and directs this multi-narrative drama
starring Charlize Theron and Kim Basinger. Sylvia (Theron) is the
icily professional manager of an upmarket restaurant who spends her
spare time having meaningless sex with different men. Gina
(Basinger) is a married housewife and mother of four who begins an
affair with Nick (Joaquim de Almeida), a Mexican-American man who
is also married with a family. Maria (Jennifer Lawrence) is a
teenager searching for the mother who abandoned her when she was
two days old. The various strands and connections between the
characters are gradually revealed throughout the film in Arriaga's
signature style, previously seen in his collaborations with
director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu: 'Amores Perros', '21 Grams'
and 'Babel'.
