BLACK DYNAMITE, opening at the Angelika Film Center NY on October 16th, recently hit the #5 spot on Yahoo! Movies most watched trailers. From the director of THE LAST BANDIT, BLACK DYNAMITE is a film to “…delight both discriminating fans of the blaxploitation tradition and ordinary lovers of goofy, in-ya-face thrills” (Variety). When “The Man” murders his brother, pumps heroin into local orphanages and floods the ghetto with adulterated malt liquor, Black Dynamite (Michael Jai White) is the one hero willing to fight all the way from the blood-soaked city streets to the hallowed halls of the Honky House.

Congratulations to Marion, winner of our most recent giveaway contest at the Angelika in New York! Marion won our framed CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY poster, signed by the main man himself: Michael Moore.

CAPITALISM opened on Wednesday, September 23rd - showtimes & tickets here.

CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY
The king of controversy, documentarian Michael Moore (SICKO, FAHRENHEIT 9/11, BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE), says his new “love story” has it all – “…lust, passion, romance, and 14,000 jobs being eliminated every day.” A fierce study of the current economic crisis and the hypocrisy of bailout dependent banks, CAPITALISM speaks to Moore’s long term commitment to expose corporate greed and give a voice to those who, in the shuffle, are pushed to the (profit) margins.

OPENS NOV. 13 AT THE ANGELIKA DALLAS, PLANO AND HOUSTON
The first film in history to win Audience Awards at both Sundance and the Toronto International Film Festival, PRECIOUS (presented by Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry), is a poignant, hopeful story based on the novel Push by Sapphire. Generating tremendous Oscar buzz, this Lee Daniels film stars newcomer ‘Gabby’ Sidibe as Precious - an overweight, illiterate teen, pregnant with her second child. Living in Harlem in the late 80’s with her abusive mother (Sundance Special Jury Prize winner Mo’Nique), Precious accepts a slot at an alternative school and, through education, seeks the hope and change she desperately needs. PRECIOUS also features Mariah Carey, Lenny Kravitz and Paula Patton (DÉJÀVU).
