BLINDNESS

What would happen if everyone in the world suddenly went blind?  What if one woman still had the power to see?  What if bananas were bright purple, instead of yellow?  Blindness answers two of these questions.

FROZEN RIVER

Wildly acclaimed film, favorite of Ragtag and Citizen Jane Film Fest

NIGHTS IN RODANTHE

About an adult romance between Richard Gere and Diane Lane.  Watch it with your lady, she'll think you're sensitive and mature.  And maybe a little lame.

Oh snap, it's the new Spike Lee joint!  His version of Saving Private Ryan.
