Shackles
Hughley stars as Ben, a disillusioned teacher struggling to get his career back on track and escape his own damaged past. Tapped to salvage an inmate teaching program at a state prison, Ben's unorthodox methods win over a hardcore crew of unlikely students. Wielding freestyle rap lyrics like weapons, Ben inspires drop-outs and lifers alike to clean up their act and transform their lives, even talented but troubled teen drug dealer Gabriel (Cantillo), whose raw skills just might be his ticket out of the ghetto after he enters a poetry-slam competition outside the prison walls. But after a deadly jail riot erupts, Ben must fight to survive this private hell. A stone-cold shattering drama, Shackles proves how tough it is to break the cycle and make a difference or even make it out alive.

Bullitt
Innen natten er omme ligger stjernevitnet i en viktig sak for døden, og politietterforskeren Frank Bullitt (Steve McQueen) har ingen planer om å slappe av før pistolmennene – og mannen som trekker i trådene – sitter i buret. Bullitt er hårreisende realistisk – fra første scene til siste skyteepisode: innspilt på location i San Francisco, med råbarsk dialog og autentiske arbeidsmetoder hentet fra politi, sykehus og likhus. Denne nervepirrende spenningsfilmen stakk av med Oscar® for beste klipping (1968) og inneholder en av kinohistoriens mest minneverdige biljakter. Spenn deg fast – her blir det action!

The Comedians
This is an all-star adaptation of Graham Green's novel about the political nightmare that was Haiti under "Papa Doc" Duvalier. The film follows the observations of a white hotel owner and his increasing depression as he watches the Caribbean country decline into barbarism. The characters in his world include a rebel leader, politically "charged" hotel guests, an European ambassador (who he's having an affair with), and a British opportunist arms dealer.
