CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC

Cast: Isla Fisher, Joan Cusack, John Goodman, Hugh Dancy, Leslie Bibb

Synopsis: In the glamorous world of New York City, Rebecca Bloomwood (ISLA FISHER) is a fun-loving girl who is really good at shopping -- a little too good, perhaps. She dreams of working for her favorite fashion magazine, but can't quite get her foot in the door -- until ironically, she snags a job as an advice columnist for a financial magazine published by the same company. As her dreams are finally coming true, she goes to ever more hilarious and extreme efforts to keep her past from ruining her future. ISLA FISHER ('Wedding Crashers') stars in the film from producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director PJ. Hogan ('My Best Friend's Wedding'). The screenplay by Tracey Jackson, Tim Firth and Kayla Alpert is based on the books 'Confessions of a Shopaholic' and 'Shopaholic Takes Manhattan' by Sophie Kinsella.

FRIDAY THE 13th

Cast: Amanda Righetti, Danielle Panabaker, Jared Padalecki, Andrea Bogart, Julie Berman

Synopsis: Searching for his missing sister, Clay Miller (Jared Padalecki) heads up to the eerie woods of legendary Crystal Lake, where he stumbles on the creaky remains of rotting old cabins behind moss-covered trees. And that's not the only thing lying in wait under the brush.
Against the advice of police and cautions from the locals, Clay pursues what few leads he has in the search for his missing sister, Whitney (Amanda Righetti), with the help of Jenna (Danielle Panabaker), a young woman he meets among a group of college kids up for an all-thrills weekend. But they are all about to find much more than they bargained for.
Little do they know, they've entered the domain of one of the most terrifying specters in American film history--the infamous killer who haunts Crystal Lake, armed with a razor-sharp machete... Jason Voorhees.

THE INTERNATIONAL

Cast: Clive Owen, Naomi Watts, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Brian F. O'Byrne

Synopsis: In The International, a gripping thriller, Interpol Agent Louis Salinger (Clive Owen) and Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Eleanor Whitman (Naomi Watts) are determined to bring to justice one of the world’s most powerful banks. Uncovering myriad and reprehensible illegal activities, Salinger and Whitman follow the money from Berlin to Milan to New York to Istanbul. Finding themselves in a high-stakes chase across the globe, their relentless tenacity puts their own lives at risk as their targets will stop at nothing – even murder – to continue financing terror and war. Directed by Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run) from an original screenplay written by Eric Warren Singer, The International was shot on location in Germany and throughout Europe.
