Opens Friday, Jun 7, 2013 Synopsis: An intense power struggle between an icy advertising executive and her timid assistant turns deadly in director Brian De Palma's stylish remake of Alain Corneau's Crime d'amour (2010). A cultivated beauty with expensive tastes and a serious kinky streak, Christine (Rachel McAdams) holds top-office at one of the world's biggest international advertising agencies. She didn't get ahead by shrinking into the shadows, so when her coy but incredible creative assistant Isabel (Noomi Rapace) dreams up a wildly popular marketing campaign, Christine takes full credit for the idea. Simultaneously repulsed and intrigued by her boss' shameless candor over the incident, Isabel ignites an all-out war when she sleeps with Christine's lover. Later, when Christine turns up dead after humiliating her assistant in front of the entire company, the perceptive Inspector Bach (Rainer Bock) struggles to sort through the clues as Isabel grows increasingly unstable, and her story seems to change with each new interview. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Rachel McAdams, Noomi Rapace, Dominic Cooper, Karoline Herfurth, Rainer Bock Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review

State 194

Now Playing Synopsis: After decades of ongoing strife between Israel and Palestine, many observers believe the only reasonable solution for peace is for the two peoples to have two separate states, and in 2009, Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad began promoting a campaign that would see Palestine recognized as a state by the United Nations. Fayyad sought to set aside divisiveness and instead asked Palestinians to imagine what sort of a state they would want, and then take concrete steps towards making it a reality. Fayyad's campaign, which he freely admitted was inspired by the program that led to the U.S.'s recognition of Israel in 1949, earned the respect of a number of international leaders and helped establish a common ground between many activists in the Middle East, but the plan fell short of its goals. Filmmaker Dan Setton profiles Salam Fayyad and chronicles his efforts to bring Palestine to the United Nations in the documentary State 194. The film was an official selection at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi Cast: Salam Fayyad, Asfa Mahmoud, Madj Biltaji, Mahmoud El-Mandawi Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review
