Vidal Sassoon: The Movie (2011)

Casts:

Vidal Sassoon
Mary Quant
Ronnie Sassoon

Having started my own hairdressing career in 1966, it was impossible not to be aware of the name Vidal Sassoon. Despite the fact that I didn't train or work there, I always knew that he had created the greatest revolution in hair, and no one could escape his methods or influence. I met him for the first time in the mid-nineties when I asked him if I could interview him for my book Hair Heroes. After the book was finished and I toured the country with it, I was invariably asked if I had a favorite hair hero. Despite the extraordinary achievements and accomplishments of everyone in the book, Vidal's effect was so broad, so radical, that I was forced to admit that I saw him as the number one most influential hairdresser in history.

The idea for the film started off as a personal tribute to him as he was approaching his 80th birthday, and then it grew into a major initiative to capture this man's life both in a film and a book. My intention was to leave a lasting memory of him that would inspire young people and re-inspire the older generation of hairdressers, as well as the millions of people in the world to whom the name Vidal Sassoon is either familiar or personal or evocative. Due to the fact that hairdressing's impact on society has not been very well documented or recorded, much less respected because of the lack of any serious written material, I am hoping that this is something that every hairdresser in the world will want to share with everyone they know.

Every year more than 8,000 deaths are caused by road accidents in Argentina. This is an average of 22 deaths a day. In addition, about 120,000 people a year are injured in road accidents. In the past decade this meant in excess of 100,000 deaths. The millions of pesos that are needed by the victims and their families to cope with medical and legal costs represent a huge market sustained by the settlements paid out by insurance companies and the fragility of the law. Each of these unfortunate incidents could bring with it a business opportunity.

Sosa is a lawyer that specialises in road accidents. He is about to recover his practising license. He scours the accidents and emergency wings of hospitals, the emergency services and the police stations, seeking clients. He now works for a foundation that supposedly aids the victims but, in fact, is the front for a shady law firm. Sosa procures the clients, the witnesses, the adjusters' reports. He deals with the police, the judges and the insurers.

Lujan is a young doctor, a newcomer to the city. She works all hours, in several places, ambulances, accidents and emergency wings, emergency services. She works alone, tirelessly, she hardly has time to sleep. She finds herself in a world that is alien to her.

This love story begins the night Lujan and Sosa meet, on the street. She is fighting to save the victim's life. He wants the victim to be his client. Together they will try to change the course of their lives, but Sosa's turbulent past will come up against them.

To call insurance agent Tim Lippe (Ed Helms), "naïve" is a gross understatement. He's never left his small hometown. He's never stayed at a hotel. And... To call insurance agent Tim Lippe (Ed Helms), "naïve" is a gross understatement. He's never left his small hometown. He's never stayed at a hotel. And he's never experienced anything like Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Sent to represent his company at the annual insurance convention, Tim is soon distracted by three convention veterans (John C. Reilly, Anne Heche and Isiah Whitlock Jr.) who will show him the ropes and push his boundaries.

In 2nd-Century Britain, two men – master and slave – venture beyond the edge of the known world on a dangerous and obsessive quest that will push them beyond the boundaries of loyalty and betrayal, friendship and hatred, deceit and heroism…The Roman epic adventure The Eagle is directed by Kevin Macdonald and produced by Duncan Kenworthy. Jeremy Brock has adapted the screenplay from Rosemary Sutcliff’s classic novel The Eagle of the Ninth.

In 140 AD, the Roman Empire extends all the way to Britain – though its grasp is incomplete, as the rebellious tribes of Caledonia (today’s Scotland) hold sway in the far North. Marcus Aquila (Channing Tatum) arrives in Britain, determined to restore the tarnished reputation of his father, Flavius Aquila. It was 20 years earlier that Rome’s 5,000-strong Ninth Legion, under the command of Flavius and carrying their golden emblem, the Eagle of the Ninth, marched north into Caledonia. They never returned; Legion and Eagle simply vanished into the mists. Angered, the Roman Emperor Hadrian ordered the building of a wall to seal off the territory; Hadrian’s Wall became the northernmost frontier of the Roman Empire – the edge of the known world.

Driven to become a brilliant soldier and now given command of a small fort in the southwest, Marcus bravely leads his troops during a siege. Commended by Rome for his bravery, yet discharged from the army because of his severe wounds, Marcus convalesces, demoralized, in the villa of his Uncle Aquila (Donald Sutherland), a retired army man. When Marcus impulsively gets a young Briton’s life spared at a gladiatorial contest, Aquila buys the Briton, Esca (Jamie Bell), to be Marcus’ slave. Marcus is dismissive of Esca, who harbors a seething hatred of all things Roman. Yet Esca vows to serve the man who has saved his life.

Hearing a rumor that the Eagle has been seen in a tribal temple in the far north, Marcus is galvanized into action, and sets off with Esca across Hadrian’s Wall. But the highlands of Caledonia are a vast and savage wilderness, and Marcus must rely on his slave to navigate the region. When they encounter ex-Roman soldier Guern (Mark Strong), Marcus realizes that the mystery of his father’s disappearance may well be linked to the secret of his own slave’s identity and loyalty – a secret all the more pressing when the two come face-to-face with the warriors of the fearsome Seal Prince (Tahar Rahim).

Bulong (Star Cinema Movie 2011)

Casts:

Vhong Navarro
Angelica Panganiban
Bangs Garcia
Jon Avila
Teddy Corpus

Bulong is directed by master storyteller Chito S. Roño who gave us horror gems Feng Shui, Sukob and T2. This grand new year opener stars the exciting new combination of Vhong Navarro and Angelica Panganiban. The two movie stars both possess an undeniably strong audience pull in the comedy department. reflected from Vhong’s continual reign as the Comedy Prince with a string of blockbusters under his belt from Mr. Suave to D’Anothers. Angelica meanwhile proved her mettle in the laugh wagon with the success of Here Comes the Bride (one of last year’s biggest box-office winners) and in Bananasplit for which she was recognized as the 2009 PMPC Star Awards for Best Comedy Actress.

Star Cinema makes a daring move by fielding a movie that veers away from the romantic concoctions that usually spring up come February. Bulong has already made noise with its trailer alone that it mixes the scary and thrilling with the hilarious.

The movie leans on a certain folklore belief that your wish can come true when you whisper it to a dead person. Therefore here is a movie that tells you to ‘Be careful with what you wish for…You might just get…More than what you ask for’.
