Get On the Bus

Get On the Bus


Rated: R
Get On the Bus tells the story of a group of men who board a bus headed for the historic Million Man March as strangers but emerge three days and thousands of miles later as brothers: an estranged father; an aspiring actor; a cop; a devout Muslim; an old man; a film student; and the driver whose job it is to get them from one side of the nation to the other. Their journey is not just across America, but down forgotten roads within themselves and onto the common ground of unity and hope on which they all must tread.

Sleepers

Sleepers


Rated: R
To four boys growing up on the streets in the mid 1960s, Hell's Kitchen was a place of innocence ruled by corruption. The children who grew up there shared joyful times, but subscribed to a sacred social code: crimes against the neighborhood were not permitted. And when they did occur, punishment was severe. A decade and a half later, nothing can erase their painful memories, but the lessons of Hell's Kitchen allow them to even the score of the terrible hand that Fate had dealt them. In their shocking retaliation, they are daringly aided by a neighborhood priest and an aging, shadowy mob figure, both of whom have known the quartet since their childhoods. Nothing can change the past. But the code of the past -- and those who were expected to uphold it -- can reach through the years to bring justice and closure to the present.
Swingers

Swingers


Rated: R
An ensemble comedy about five guys, all in their twenties, all coping with the mysteries of life and women, and is set in the back streets and sometimes hidden clubs of Hollywood. It's a story told in the language of the cocktail nation, a growing twentysomething retro-Swing dance movement that's taken Hollywood by storm and is beginning to sweep the nation. Mike is down in the dumps because he left his girlfriend behind in New York when he came to Hollywood to seek his acting fortune. Instead, he's found loneliness and the blues. Now, after six months of dealing with Mike, his buddy Trent and the other swingers have had enough. It's time to bring Mike back to life.
