    "Lotus Eaters" Trailer 

    LOTUS EATERS features a cast of young up-and-comers lead by Antonia Campbell-Hughes, a former fashion model; Johnny Flynn, lead singer of the popular English folk-rock band Johnny Flynn & The Sussex Wit and Benn Northover, who appeared in a number of acclaimed films including KIDNAPPED ABROAD and HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HOLLOWS.

    The film, the directorial debut of Alexandra McGuinness, follows a group of young Londoners as they struggle to find meaning in their lives while masking their discontent with sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll.  The story centers on ex-model and aspiring actress Alice (Antonia Campbell-Hughes) as she struggles with her relationship with Charlie (Johnny Flynn), her drug-addicted ex-boyfriend.  The fashionable group of friends epitomizes a new modern “lost generation” reminiscent of Ernest Hemingway and his cohorts.

    "The Hitchcock 9 National US Tour Announced

    A national tour of Alfred Hitchcock’s nine earliest surviviving works, all newly restored by the BFI (British Film Institute), will roll out with screenings presented by the San Francisco Silent Film Festival (Castro Theatre, June 14-16); Academy of Music’s Steinberg Screen in the Harvey Theater, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences (kicking off June 18 at the Academy’s Goldwyn Theater in Los Angeles); and BAMcinématek (kicking off June 29-July 5). The touring festival is a joint venture of the BFI, Park Circus/ITV Studios, and Rialto Pictures/Studiocanal.
     
    The nine early Hitchcocks are also set to screen in Washington, D.C., Chicago, Seattle, Houston, Boston, Berkeley, Columbus, and other American cities. Both the Brooklyn and San Francisco events will feature live music performed by the Colorado-based Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra, British composer/pianist Stephen Horne, and other artists.
     
    While Hitchcock is one of the most famous film directors of all time, his first ten films – nine of which surivive – are little known compared to his later work. Made from 1925 to 1929, Hitchcock’s extant silents are among the greatest achievements of early British cinema, containing the motifs and obsessions we’ve come to recognize as “Hitchcockian,” though most of the nine have been little-seen here, if at all.
     
    The nine new BFI restorations include the director’s very first film, The Pleasure Garden, and such rarities as Downhill, Easy Virtue, Champagne, and The Farmer’s Wife.  The familiar Hitchcock style begins to emerge strongly in at least four of the films:  Blackmail, The Ring, The Manxman, and The Lodger, which the director himself dubbed “the first true Hitchcock picture” (it also features his first cameo appearance). One early Hitchcock, The Mountain Eagle, is lost.
     
    The restoration of the “Hitchcock 9” is the largest restoration project ever undertaken by the BFI, which holds some of the most important and earliest surviving copies of the silent Hitchcocks; the restorations also include materials  sourced from other international archives. The restorations have made the films crisper and fresher than ever and  uncover new layers of meaning, encouraging a deeper appreciation of the precocious genius at work.

    Title Sequence From "Oz The Great And Powerful"

    Starring James Franco, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz, Michelle Williams, Zach Braff and Joey King, Oz The Great and Powerful follows Oscar Diggs (Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, who is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz. He thinks he's hit the jackpot -- fame and fortune are his for the taking -- that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Kunis), Evanora (Weisz) and Glinda (Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone's been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity--and even a bit of wizardry--Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man as well.
