A Red Bear (2004) [Un Oso Rojo]
Ex-con Oso (Julio Chavez) can't wait to get his old life back now that he's out of jail, but things aren't what they used to be. His daughter, Alicia (Agostina Lage), doesn't remember him anymore, and her mother has moved on without him. Oso tries hard to stay on the right path, but the past keeps rearing its ugly head. Will he be able to stay out of trouble, or will the past keep catching up with him?

Hidden Fortress (1958) [Kakushi toride no san akunin]

The Criterion Collection is proud to present this landmark motion picture in a stunning, newly-restored Tohoscope edition.
Cast: Toshiro Mifune, Misa Uehara, Minoru Chiaki, Makatari Fujiwara, Susumu Fujita
Director: Akira Kurosawa

The Color Purple (1985)
Directed by Steven Spielberg, this film is a sterling adaptation of Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. Whoopi Goldberg stars as Celie, a Southern woman whose correspondence with her sister in Africa helps her escape an abusive husband (portrayed with a scary edge by Danny Glover). Quincy Jones's evocative soundtrack and a moving performance by Oprah Winfrey make this Oscar-nominated film an all-time favorite.
Cast: Whoopi Goldberg, Danny Glover, Margaret Avery, Oprah Winfrey, Adolph Caesar, Rae Dawn Chong, Willard E. Pugh, Akosua Busia, Desreta Jackson, Dana Ivey, Leonard Jackson, Carl Anderson, Laurence Fishburne
Director: Steven Spielberg
