시놉시스
빌 라고(Bill Rago: 대니 드비토 분)는 좋은 집안 출신에 프린스턴 대학을 나와 광고업에 종사하는 부러울 것이 없는 사람이다. 그러나 그는 세상에 태어나 가치있는 일을 해본 적도 없고 해볼 엄두도 내지 못하는 위인이다. 또한 가정적으로도 안정을 찾지 못했으며, 냉소적인 태도로 수차례 직장 상사들과 충돌하게 되고 이로 인해 실업자로 전락하게 된다. 궁여지책으로 찾아간 직업소개소에서는 그에게 전혀 어울리지 않는 직업인 육군사관학교의 영어 교관직을 알선해 준다. 군대식 사고방식에 빠져 있는 교관들과 자대배치를 앞두고 기본적인 소양만을 갖추기 위해 모여든 상이한 배경을 지닌 다양한 인종의 젊은이들 속에서 이런저런 사건들을 겪으면서 빌은 차츰 그가 맡은 젊은이들의 재능을 키워나가는데서 삶의 기쁨을 찾아 나가게 된다. 군대에서의 낙제생들인 이들 또한 빌의 열성적인 태도에 동화되어 가면서 단체정신을 키워나가게 되고 자신감을 갖게 된다. 빌은 그런 그들에게 세익스피어의 연극공연을 직접 관람할 수 있는 기회를 주고자 규율을 어기고 이들을 훈련소 밖으로 이끌고 나간다. 드디어 이들의 기본교육이 끝나는 날이 다가오고 빌은 전원을 무시험으로 통과시키라는 상부의 지시를 받게 된다. 이에 응하지 않고 시험을 강행하려는 빌에 맞서 빌과 사사건건 충돌해 온 카스 상사(Sergeant Cass: 그레고리 하인즈 분)는 시험전날 밤 빌의 학생들에게 혹독한 야간훈련을 시킴으로써 시험에 응할 수 없도록 방해까지 한다. 텅빈 교실에서 초조하게 학생들을 기다리는 빌. 그 앞에 처음과는 달리 절도있고 자신감에 넘치는 모습으로 나타난 학생들. 그들은 모두 빌의 시험에 통과하게 되고, 빌은 드디어 자신의 삶의 의미를 찾게되고 전혀 어울리지 않을것같던 영어 교관직을 계속 맡게 된다.

Realizing that they've both hit rock bottom, Nina and Sami make a pledge to support one another to the point where they can both get clean and pursue their dreams before it's too late.

바바라 로든이 세상에 남긴 유일무이한 장편 연출작. 길거리를 떠돌다 은행강도 사건에 휘말리는 한 여성의 실화를 각색한 작품으로 완성이 되기까지 11년의 세월이 걸렸다. 베니스 영화제, 칸 영화제에 초청되며 평단의 주목을 받았지만 반영웅적 캐릭터와 관습을 벗어난 이야기로 당시 관객들에게 불편한 영화가 되었다. 진취적인 여성상을 제시하거나 교훈을 주거나 카타르시스를 선사하는 영화가 아니었기 때문이다. 이 작품은 가부장제 속 사회가 허용하는 여성의 역할을 수행하지 않을 시 하나의 독립적 존재로 살아가기 힘든 여성들의 실존적 불안을 들추어낸다. 로든이 사망한 후 더욱 활발히 논의되고 있는 이 영화는 오늘날 1970년대 제작된 최고의 미국 독립 영화 중 한 편으로 손꼽힌다.

The show, RAIot (a play on the name of the Italian state public TV: RAI, and the English word riot), lampooned prime minister Berlusconi. Since it wasn't considered a satirical show, but a political one, it was cancelled after the first episode.

It's an experiment in human behavior. It's an exploration of the most natural of animal impulses. It's something new under the moon. And it bites. When security dispatcher Aaron Scates is blinded in an explosion, he's put in the care of Dr. Andrea Hewlitt, famous in her field for spearheading extraordinary-though controversial-medical breakthroughs. Her newest is cross-species organ transplants, and Aaron is her first human subject. When a severely wounded wolf is brought to Dr. Hewlitt's office by museum curator Lydia Armstrong, Dr. Hewlitt leaps on the opportunity and successfully transplants the wolf's eyes to Aaron-despite Lydia's objections. Aaron, however, is thrilled. Not only can he see again, he can see in the dark. He also has an unusually acute sense of hearing, and tears into a raw steak like never before. Unfortunately, he also tends growl, and to target people as prey.

Nina's Journey is a feature film, but with an authentic narrator. We follow Nina and her family during six dramatic years, half of them spent in the Warsaw ghetto. The film tells the story of a young girl coming of age under extreme circumstances: Nina falls in love, goes to parties, and graduates high school - all in the Warsaw ghetto. One could say that, in these horrid times, she is almost living the life of a normal teenager. If it wasn't for the fact that all those around her are vanishing, one by one. Nina's Journey is shot in Warsaw, with Polish actors. But it is narrated by the elderly Nina Einhorn herself.

Even though Richard Clarke was the one who repeatedly warned against Al Qaeda, he was perhaps the only member of the administration who took responsibility for the lack of preparedness for the 9/11 attack. His famous testimony "your government failed you, I failed you" was followed by an apology to the families of the victims, and moved the world. In a new film by award-winning director Michele Ohayon, former counter-terrorism czar Clarke sharply demystifies the role of government and how we can take control over its actions. The film looks at the U.S. and the world, bringing new hopes and roads to avoid future failures. It also brings to the surface hidden threats that must be addressed immediately, and makes transparent the role of Government towards the individual.
