This Word War Two drama features an all-star cast, and is generally considered to be one of the best movies of all time. Burt Lancaster stars as Sgt. Warden, a career soldier who has an affair with his commanding officer\'s wife, played by Deborah Kerr. Montgomery Clift is a rebellious and proud soldier who falls in love with a prostitute(Donna Reed), and Frank Sinatra\'s performance of Maggio earned him an Oscar for best supporting actor. Ernest Borgnine, Claude Akins, George Reeves and Willis Bouchey are just some of the familiar faces that costar in this great production. [More] [Less]
Plan 9 from Outer Space is a science fiction/horror film written, produced and directed by Edward D. Wood, Jr. in 1958, and released in 1959. The film stars Gregory Walcott, Mona McKinnon, Tor Johnson and Maila \"Vampira\" Nurmi. The film also claims to posthumously star Bela Lugosi through use of archive footage and a brief scene of the actor shot by Wood just before Lugosi\'s death in 1956, although Lugosi\'s character is primarily portrayed by chiropractor Tom Mason. The plot of the film is focused on a race of extraterrestrial beings who are seeking to stop humans from creating a doomsday weapon that would destroy the universe. In the course of doing so, the aliens implement \"Plan 9\", a scheme to resurrect Earth\'s dead as zombies to get the planet\'s attention, causing chaos. By merit of its writing, unconvincing special effects, and multiple production errors visible in the final version of the film, Plan 9 from Outer Space is sometimes regarded as a leading candidate for the title of \"worst movie ever made\". It has also earned Edward D. Wood, Jr. a posthumous Golden Turkey Award as the worst director ever. Cast Credited Gregory Walcott — Jeff Trent Mona McKinnon — Paula Trent Duke Moore — Lt.

There\'s no need to introduce Spielberg\'s classic thriller that remains so popular and highly regarded as one of the greatest ever - its theatrical preview, on the other hand, may not be so well known. It\'s as electrifying and taut as the whole product itself. Starring Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss and Robert Shaw. [Downloaded from www.movie-list.com] [More] [Less]

Mel Gibson ofrece una impresionante actuación en la convincente historia de amistad y aventuras entre dos soldados australianos en 1915, dirigida por Peter Weir. Ambos cruzan continentes y grandes océanos, escalan las pirámides y caminan por las milenarias arenas de Egipto para unirse a su regimiento en la fatídica batalla de Gallipoli. Hechos históricos se entremezclan con el destino de los amigos, al formar parte del legendario enfrentamiento entre Australia y los turcos aliados de los alemanes, durante la Primera guerra Mundial, una batalla que para los australianos es el equivalente de El Álamo para los norteamericanos.

in english with spanish subtitles an documentary experimental film directed by Ron Fricke USA 1992 Film includes footage of various landscapes, churches, ruins, religious ceremonies, and cities thrumming with life, filmed using time-lapse photography in order to capture the great pulse of humanity as it flocks and swarms in daily activity. The film also features a number of long tracking shots through various settings, including one through former concentration camps at Auschwitz (in Nazi-occupied Poland) and Tuol Sleng (in Cambodia) turned into museums honoring their victims: over photos of the people involved, past skulls stacked in a room, to a spread of bones. In addition to making comparisons between natural and technological phenomena, Baraka searches for a universal cultural perspective: for instance, following a shot of an elaborate tattoo on a bathing Japanese yakuza mobster with one of Native Australian tribal paint. The movie was filmed at 152 locations of 24 countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Cambodia, China, Ecuador, Egypt, France, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Iran, Israel, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Kuwait, Nepal, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Tanzania, Thailand, Turkey, and the United States. It contains no dialogue. Instead of a story or plot, the film uses themes to present new perspectives and evoke emotion purely through cinema. The film was the first in over twenty years to be photographed in the 70mm Todd-AO format. The title Baraka is a word that means blessing in many different languages. The score by Michael Stearns and featuring music by Dead Can Dance, L. Subramaniam, Inkuyo, Brother and David Hykes. The film was produced by Mark Magidson. A sequel to Baraka, Samsara, is planned to be released in 2009. [More] [Less]
