The Past

Oscar-winning ?A Separation?, Asghar Farhadi’s European debut manages to sweep audiences off their feet with its emotional force and political agenda.

Oscar-winning “A Separation”, Asghar Farhadi’s European debut manages to sweep audiences off their feet with its emotional force and political agenda. Ahmad (the brilliant Ali Mosaffa, first seen in Farhadi’s previous triumph) returns to France from Iran to sign the divorce papers his wife Marie (“The Artist’s” Bérénice Bejo) has filed.

His arrival at his former home, where Marie now lives with her new companion, will trigger a chain of reactions that reveal hidden secrets. Ecumenical Jury Prize at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. Ph.V.

Oh Boy

With a debut harbouring some serious Woody Allen-style irony, Jan Ole Gerster paints the bittersweet portrait of a character stuck somewhere between careless youth and pained adult.

Gloria

This unexpected movie treat by Chilean director Sebastián Lelio tells the story of a middle-aged divorcée who decides to take her life in her hands and, at the age of 58, take advantage of all the second chances she gets in life.

Don Jon

Don Jon (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is a ?Jersey Shore? producer's wet dream: he's cute, beefed up, American to the bone and nurses a special appreciation for the opposite sex. He has so many conquests that his friends have taken to calling him ?Don Jon?. What they don't know is that he's addicted to porn.

The Great Beauty

Operatic in dimensions with definite references to Federico Fellini's ?La Dolce Vita?, Paolo Sorrentino's new film soars across the big screen as an authentic audiovisual delirium, a whirlwind of people, places and events in a vivid kaleidoscope of human behavior.

Ain't Them Bodies Saints

David Lowery's ethereal new effort, winner of the Best Cinematography Award at Sundance, is a cross between the untainted beauty of "Badlands" and the violent honesty of "Bonnie and Clyde".

All is Lost

Can a film with a cast of one, very little dialogue and the endless blue sea as its sole location keep you nailed to your seat for one hour and 45 minutes? The answer is yes, if it's directed by J.C. Chandor.
