Triple bill of crime dramas. In 'Bad Karma' (2012), starring Ray
Liotta and Dominic Purcell, a criminal's attempts to go straight
are sabotaged by his former partner. Relocating from Sydney to the
Gold Coast to start afresh, Molloy (Liotta) is remarkably
successful and even finds something approaching domestic bliss with
a new girlfriend. Naturally, when his old crime partner Mack
(Purcell) tracks him down he finds that Molloy is reluctant to
return to his past life. Unfortunately, this doesn't deter the
increasingly deranged Mack as he sets about convincing Molloy to
help him pull off one last job. In 'The Entitled' (2011) social
misfit Paul (Kevin Zegers) is driven to desperate measures when he
is turned down for yet another job and his ill mother is given a
foreclosure notice on the family home. He enlists the help of two
friends to abduct three kids from rich families and hold them
ransom for a million dollars each, but the plan goes badly wrong
and they soon find themselves in way over their heads. 'Officer
Down' (2012) follows Detective David Callahan (Stephen Dorff),
known as 'Cal' on the force, who has had a mixed career as a police
officer, struggling with drink problems and straying to the wrong
side of the law himself at times. When he finds himself caught up
in a murder investigation, Cal must attempt to overcome the demons
from his own past as well as the challenges of the case.
The first of three epic instalments in director Peter Jackson's
blockbuster prequel to 'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy. Set in
Middle-Earth 60 years before events in 'The Lord of the Rings', the
story follows the adventures of Hobbit Bilbo Baggins (Martin
Freeman), who, at the instigation of the wizard Gandalf (Ian
McKellen), suddenly finds himself co-opted into joining a company
of 13 Dwarves led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage) to help
reclaim the Dwarves' lost kingdom of the Lonely Mountain from the
clutches of Smaug the dragon. After setting out on their quest from
the safety of Bag End, the band of travellers soon find themselves
pitted against a range of strange and fearsome opponents, in
addition to a small, slimy creature known simply as Gollum (Andy
Serkis).
Three classic films starring comedy duo Stan Laurel and Oliver
Hardy. In 'The Dancing Masters' (1943), Stan (Laurel) and Ollie
(Hardy) are owners of a dance school, but are evicted for
non-payment of rent. To raise money, Ollie tries an insurance scam
which involves inflicting injuries on Stan, but the inept pair soon
find themselves mixed up with local gangsters. Watch out for
appearances by long-running Marx Brothers' foil Margaret Dumont and
a youthful Robert Mitchum. In 'A-haunting We Will Go' (1942),
Laurel and Hardy unknowingly offer to help a bunch of crooks
smuggle a wanted man past the police in a coffin. Unfortunately,
the casket gets mixed up with one used by a stage musician, leading
to a comic chase. Finally, in 'The Bullfighters' (1945), Stan and
Ollie are two detectives looking for a female criminal in Mexico.
Stan gets mistaken for a famous matador and is forced to show his
prowess in the bullring.

Doris Walker (Maureen O'Hara), an executive at Macy's department
store, believes in taking a common-sense approach to life and is
consequently raising her daughter Susan (Natalie Wood) not to
believe in Santa Claus. This year however, the convictions of both
mother and child are challenged when the kindly old man (Edmund
Gwenn) hired as the store Santa insists that he is in fact the real
thing. No one believes him, some even think he's insane, but he is
willing to go to court to prove his case. Oscars were won by Edmund
Gwenn (Best Supporting Actor) and George Seaton (Best Screenplay)
and the film was remade in 1994 with Richard Attenborough in the
lead.
