Starring Anne Hathaway, Cary Elwes, Eric Idle, Steve Coogan and Joanna
Lumley.
Ella (Anne Hathaway of The Princess Diaries) lives in a fanciful and
magical world where all children are given a "gift" from a fairy Godmother
at the moment of their birth. Little Ella's birthright is the gift - and
curse - of obedience. As a result of this unfortunate circumstance, Ella
cannot refuse any command, and is often left at the mercy of unscrupulous
personalities. In a bid to regain control of her life, Ella goes on a
quest to free herself from this mysterious curse. Ella must outwit a
kingdom filled with ogres, giants, wicked stepsisters, talking books and
evil plots. And, if she's lucky, she may find love along the way.

Escolha 3
Blind Flight (Luta Cega)
Starring Ian Hart, Linus Roache, Mohamad Chamas, Ziad Lahoud.
Brian Keenan (Ian Hart) and John McCarthy (Linus Roach) spent four years
together as hostages in the Lebanon, victims of being in the wrong place
at the wrong time, with the 'wrong' passports. This is a remarkable story
about an Irish academic and an English journalist from ostensibly very
different backgrounds, thrown together because of other people's politics,
who have to rely on their solidarity and a friendship that only exists
because of the extreme circumstances to keep them sane, and indeed, alive.
Adapted from Keenan's best selling memoir An Evil Cradling, John Furse's
directorial debut carries considerable authority. Furse's camera rarely
goes beyond the four walls the men are trapped inside, an effective tactic
in bringing the viewer close to the harsh, claustrophobic conditions
Keenan and McCarthy had to endure, while Hart and Roache give themselves
over to the roles with utter conviction.

Jersey Girl (Era Uma Vez ... Um Pai)
Starring Ben Affleck, Liv Tyler, George Carlin and Jennifer Lopez.
This 90-era drama-comedy follows one man's plummet from successful,
married New York music promoter to unemployed single father living with
his dad. But then he meets a pretty single woman with lovable daughter and
they teach him that happiness is not an address, but a state of mind.

mystery of the murder of his brother. Piper Perabo plays his wife; Stephen
(The Crying Game) Rea plays the psychiatrist trying to help Simon piece
together the facts of his life.

Dirty Dancing 2: Havana Nights
Starring Romola Garai and Diego Luna.
Havana: November, 1958. 18-year-old Katey Vendetto (Romola Garai) brings
an innate curiosity and a smattering of Spanish to her new life in Cuba's
lush capital, where her father has taken an executive posting at Chrysler.
Schooled by her parents in the art of ballroom dancing, Katey is expected
to join the smart set of American teenagers who are the Vendettos'
neighbors at the exclusive Hotel Miramar. But Katey finds herself drawn
instead to the proud, purposeful Xavier (Diego Luna), a pool boy who also
happens to be a brilliant dancer. Determined to learn the slinky,
spectacular moves that Xavier seems to know in his bones, Katey persuades
him to partner with her in a prestigious national dance competition at a
local country club. Meeting secretly in an out-of-the-way Havana
nightclub, Katey and Xavier practice their steps, their bodies aligning in
a sensual harmony that mirrors the growing passion between them. As the
night of the contest finally arrives, Katey and Xavier are ready to take
their place as a couple on the dance floor - unaware that the country
club, and the streets of Havana itself, are about to erupt in
revolutionary violence.
