The White Crow
Rudolf Nureyev, played by Ukrainian dancer Oleg Ivenko, was a game-changer—a dancer who wanted to leap as grandly and pirouette as powerfully as the ballerinas with whom he shared the stage. From his poverty-stricken childhood in the Soviet city of Ufa, to his arrival at the epicentre of western culture in Paris and a nail-biting stand-off at the Le Bourget airport, 'The White Crow' is the true story of an artist who transformed ballet forever.

Boyz N the Hood
"The Hood" is a place where drive-by shootings and unemployment are rampant, but it is also a place where harmony coexists with adversity, especially for three young men growing up there: Doughboy (Ice Cube), an unambitious drug dealer, his brother Ricky (Morris Chestnut), a college-bound teenage father, and Ricky's best friend Tre (Cuba Gooding, Jr.), who aspires to a brighter future beyond "The Hood." The lessons they learn are put to the ultimate test when tragedy strikes close to home, and violence seems like the only recourse.
