FAY GRIM
Cast: Jeff Goldblum, Parker Posey, Saffron Burrows, Liam Aiken, Thomas Jay Ryan
Synopsis: Fay Grim is a single Mom from Woodside, Queens, New York, manically preoccupied with raising her 14 year old son, Ned, so he won’t grow up to be like his father. His father, Henry, is missing. Seven years earlier, he accidentally killed a vicious neighbor and fled – never to be seen or heard from again. Fay’s brother, Simon, is a popularly vilified and world famous poet (formerly a garbage man) serving ten years in prison for aiding and abetting Henry’s escape. In the quiet of his cell, Simon has had time to think about the tumultuous years of Henry’s presence amongst them – chronicled earlier in the film Henry Fool (1997). Simon has come to suspect that Henry was not the ego-maniac garbage man, sex fiend, and failed literary genius he appeared to be. He suspects Henry’s apparently worthless autobiography – his “Confessions” – might just be some sort of coded history of international atrocities committed by various governments throughout the second half of the twentieth century. Meanwhile, the CIA tell Fay her missing husband is dead – killed in a hotel fire in Sweden days after fleeing America in 1997. They have also discovered the French Government have two of Henry’s notebooks – drafts of his magnum opus, his “Confession” – and they insist the books contain information dangerous to the security of the United States. The crafty and suspicious CIA agent, Fulbright, convinces Fay to travel to Paris and retrieve her husband’s property. She agrees to do this in exchange for Simon’s release from prison. But it turns out to be an enormous con-game which pitches Fay deep into a world of international espionage where she begins to learn of the astonishing rumors concerning her apparently worthless husband. He is a tremendously wanted man. And she’s not so sure that’s a bad thing. From New York City to Paris, from Paris to Istanbul, Fay Grim – a well intentioned but uninformed American – learns more about the world than any one person should know. And with each new turn of the screw, she is led deeper and deeper into the fantastic history of her misunderstood husband – the only man she has ever truly loved – the incorrigible Henry Fool – who is not only alive, but in more trouble than ever – the most wanted man on earth. Can she get to him before the secret service agencies of four different nations try to kill him? Can she save the hapless airline stewardess and part-time topless dancer Bebe Konchalovsky who has worked so hard to convince her of Henry’s importance to both their lives? Will she inadvertently lead the CIA to the Afghan terrorist Jallal Said Khan whom Henry is thought to be advising? And will she ever be able to go back home to Woodside, Queens? We hope so.

LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA
Cast: Ken Watanabe, Kazunari Ninomiya, Ryo Kase, Shido Nakamura, Tsuyoshi Ihara
Synopsis: Sixty-one years ago, US and Japanese armies met on Iwo Jima. Decades later, several hundred letters are unearthed from that stark island’s soil. The letters give faces and voices to the men who fought there, as well as the extraordinary general who led them. The Japanese soldiers are sent to Iwo Jima knowing that in all probability they will not come back. Among them are Saigo (Kazunari Ninomiya), a baker who wants only to live to see the face of his newborn daughter; Baron Nishi (Tsuyoshi Ihara), an Olympic equestrian champion known around the world for his skill and his honor; Shimizu (Ryo Kase), a young former military policeman whose idealism has not yet been tested by war; and Lieutenant Ito (Shidou Nakamura), a strict military man who would rather accept suicide than surrender. Leading the defense is Lt. General Tadamichi Kuribayashi (Ken Watanabe), whose travels in America have revealed to him the hopeless nature of the war but also given him strategic insight into how to take on the vast American armada streaming in from across the Pacific. With little defense other than sheer will and the volcanic rock of the island itself, Gen. Kuribayashi’s unprecedented tactics transform what was predicted to be a quick and bloody defeat into nearly 40 days of heroic and resourceful combat. Almost 7,000 American soldiers were killed on Iwo Jima; more than 20,000 Japanese troops perished. The black sands of Iwo Jima are stained with their blood, but their sacrifices, their struggles, their courage and their compassion live on in the letters they sent home. From Academy Award Winner Clint Eastwood (“Million Dollar Baby,” “Unforgiven”) comes the untold story of the Japanese soldiers and their General who defended against the invading American forces on the island of Iwo Jima.
