Sadly, this is the last film of Tony Scott. The 68 year-old died after jumping from a Los Angeles County bridge and his death was being investigated as a suicide.<br \/>\nDirector: Tony Scott<br \/>\nStars: Denzel Washington, Chris Pine and Rosario Dawson<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;Shine a Light&#8221; (2008)<\/strong><br \/>\nA career-spanning documentary on the Rolling Stones, with concert footage from their &#8220;A Bigger Bang&#8221; tour.<br \/>\nDirector: Martin Scorsese<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;Death Proof&#8221; (2007)<\/strong><br \/>\nLoud, fast, and proudly out of control, &#8220;Death Proof&#8221; is a tribute to the low-budget exploitation movies that lurked at drive-ins and inner city theaters in the &#8217;60s and early &#8217;70s.<br \/>\nDirector: Quentin Tarantino<br \/>\nStars: Kurt Russell, Zoe Bell and Rosario Dawson<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cAKIRA&#8221; (1988)<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8220;AKIRA&#8221;, the 1988 anime film that became the masterpiece of mangaka and director Katsuhiro Otomo. If you like Kubrick movies, you will probably get a kick out of this film. Sorry, no English subtitles.<br \/>\nDirector: Katsuhiro Otomo<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;Soul Power&#8221; (2008)<\/strong><br \/>\nA documentary on the legendary soul music concert staged in Kinshasa, Zaire in 1974. &#8220;Soul Power&#8221; is a remarkable once in a lifetime music festival, that captured,some of the greatest, musical stars, ever assembled.<br \/>\nStars: Muhammad Ali, James Brown and Don King<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cEnter the Dragon\u201d (1973)<\/strong><br \/>\nThe last film completed by Bruce Lee before his untimely death, Enter the Dragon was his entr\u00e9e into Hollywood.<br \/>\nStars: Bruce Lee, John Saxon and Jim Kelly<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cTwo-Lane Blacktop\u201d (1971)<\/strong><br \/>\nStory of two men drag racing across the USA in a primer grey 55 chevy. Wilson is the mechanic, James Taylor is the driver. With its gorgeous widescreen compositions and sophisticated look at American male obsession, this stripped-down narrative from maverick director Monte Hellman is one of the artistic high points of 1970s cinema, and possibly the greatest road movie ever made.<br \/>\nDirector: Monte Hellman<br \/>\nStars: James Taylor, Warren Oates and Laurie Bird<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cRoad to Nowhere\u201d (2010)<\/strong><br \/>\nA young filmmaker gets wrapped up in a crime while shooting his new project on location. Monte Hellman&#8217;s first feature film in 21 years is one of his finest and deepest, a twin peak to his 1971 masterpiece Two Lane Blacktop.<br \/>\nDirector: Monte Hellman<br \/>\nStars: Tygh Runyan, Dominique Swain and Cliff De Young<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cIn a Lonley Planet\u201d (2011)<\/strong><br \/>\nDirector: Takefumi Tsutsui<br \/>\nStars: Yui Asano, Go Ayano and Mickey Curtis<br \/>\nWill romance stir between neighbors with benefits? This romantic drama occupies the shifting middle ground between dream and reality that Hollywood has largely abandoned. (David Lynch, of course, has always lived there.)<br \/>\nSorry, no English subtitles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cSAUDADE\u201d (2011)<\/strong><br \/>\nDirector: Katsuya Tomita<br \/>\nStars: Wesley Bandeira, Chie Kud\u00f4 and Chika Kumada<br \/>\nImmigrants, 3D (dirty, dangerous and demeaning) labors and hip-hop&#8230;<br \/>\nWitness what&#8217;s going on in the underbelly of a small city, Japan! The film&#8217;s star is the decaying city itself, featuring the actual locals.
