2010 ACADEMY AWARD® NOMINEE
2010 GOLDEN GLOBE® NOMINEE
Grand Jury Prize winner and Golden Palm nominee this year at Cannes, writer/director Jacques Audiard (READ MY LIPS, THE BEAT THAT MY HEART SKIPPED) continues his specialty in the underground crime genre with his fifth feature: A PROPHET. A huge success at the French box office, the film represents France as the official submission at the Oscars this year, for which it received a nomination. This internationally critically acclaimed prison drama stars newcomer Tahar Rahim as Malik, a part Arab, part Corsican teen condemned to six years in prison. Confronted by the leader of the Corsican gang (Niels Arestrup â?? THE BEAT THAT MY HEART SKIPPED) currently ruling the prison, Malik is forced to carry out a number of missions to prove himself and, as he rises through the prison ranks, secretly devises his own criminal network.

(From SmART Film – Marian Luntz, Houston Chronicle)
One of the year’s best documentaries, Fred Wiseman’s La Danse: The Paris Opera Ballet is now playing at the Angelika Film Center.  The Chronicle’s rave review joins a long list of praises this extraordinary film has inspired.  Octogenarian Wiseman is a master of the observational style of filmmaking: his subjects reveal themselves with no voiceovers and no talking heads.  This film, his 38th, goes behind the scenes of this legendary dance company through rehearsals, meetings, and performances, in an absolutely captivating way.  You’ll be surprised when its 2 1/2 hours are over…(more)
