"Written and directed by Denis Dercourt, a former symphony viola player, The Page Turner is an impeccably made psychological melodrama. It’s a story of destruction, dependence and betrayal set not only in the world of classical music but in the French culture of politeness where form and decorum are everything." Kenneth Turan, The Los Angeles Times. A young musician seeks revenge on the concert pianist who thwarted her career.
INTO GREAT SILENCE
"I hesitate, given the early date and the project’s modesty, to call Into Great Silence one of the best films of the year. I prefer to think of it as the antidote to all of the others." A.O. Scott. The New York Times. This gentle yet profound documentary examines life inside the Grande Chartreuse, the head monastery of the reclusive Carthusian Order in France.
KILLER OF SHEEP "A delicately poetic, essentially plotless vision, unblinking but not unhopeful, of life in Watts, where little but the ghetto’s name recognition had changed a decade after the riots." Joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal.
ANGEL–A A beautiful woman helps an inept scam artist get his game together.
PAPRIKA When a machine that allows therapists to enter their patient’s dreams is stolen, all hell breaks loose in this latest anime feature from Japan’s Satoshi Kon.
