2008, USA. Dir: Andy & Larry Wachowski. Emile Hirsch, Christina Ricci, Matthew Fox, Susan Sarandon, Joon Park, John Goodman, Scott Porter, Christian Oliver, Hiroyuki Sanada, Rain, Benno Furmann, Cosma Shiva Hagen, Richard Roundtree. 130 min. Rated PG.

Born to race cars, Speed Racer (Emile Hirsch) is aggressive, instinctive and, most of all, fearless. His only real competition is the memory of the brother he idolized—the legendary Rex Racer, whose death has left behind a legacy that Speed is driven to fulfill. Speed is loyal to the family racing business, led by his father (John Goodman), the designer of Speed's thundering Mach 5. When Speed turns down a lucrative offer from Royalton Industries, he not only infuriates the company's maniacal owner (Roger Allam) but uncovers a terrible secret—some of the biggest races are being fixed by a handful of ruthless moguls. If Speed won't drive for Royalton, Royalton will see to it that the Mach 5 never crosses another finish line. With the support of his family and his loyal girlfriend, Trixie (Christina Ricci), Speed teams with his one-time rival—the mysterious Racer X (Matthew Fox)—to win the race that had taken his brother's life: the death-defying, cross-country rally known as The Crucible.

2007, Italy. Dir: Daniele Luchetti. Elio Germano, Riccardo Scamarcio, Angela Finocchiaro, Massimo Popolizio, Alba Rohrwacher, Luca Zingaretti, Anna Bonaiuto, Diane Fleri, Ascanio Celestini. 110 min. Rated R. In Italian with English subtitles.

A smash hit in its native Italy, director/co-writer Daniele Luchetti's intensely cinematic and incisive comedy-drama looks at the dreams and disillusionments of the 1960s and '70s. In a small Italian town, two brothers want to change the world—but in completely different ways. The elder, Manrico (Riccardo Scarmaccio), is a handsome, charismatic firebrand who becomes the prime mover in the local Communist party. Accio (Elio Germano), the younger and more rebellious brother, finds his own contrarian voice by joining the reactionary Fascists. What starts as a typical tale of sibling rivalry becomes the story of the polarizing and paralyzing politics of those turbulent times, and the rift between the brothers when Accio realizes that he loves his brother’s girlfriend, Francesca (Diane Fleri).

In Wong Kar Wai's debut English language feature, the internationally acclaimed director of In the Mood for Love takes his audience on a dramatic journey across the distance between heartbreak and a new beginning. After a rough break-up, Elizabeth (songstress Norah Jones in her screen debut) sets out on a journey across America, leaving behind a life of memories, a dream and a soulful new friend, a café owner (Jude Law)—all while in search of something to mend her broken heart. Waitressing her way through the country, Elizabeth befriends others whose yearnings are greater than hers, including a troubled cop (David Strathairn), his estranged wife (Rachel Weisz) and a down-on-her luck gambler (Natalie Portman).
