Moulin Rouge
Naïve young poet Ewan McGregor falls in love with cabaret star Nicole Kidman, and their ill-fated romance serves as a convenient peg on which to hang a dazzling array of numbers that span musical idioms (from snatches of Rodgers and Hammerstein's "The Sound of Music" to Madonna's "Like a Virgin"). But the real star of the show is director Baz Luhrmann, who came up with this infectious concoction.
Guess Who
Ashton Kutcher stars in this remake of the 1967 classic Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?

Hot Pursuit
Prep-schooler Dan Bartlett (John Cusack) takes off in Hot Pursuit of his island-bound girlfriend. Although he's better prepared for the S.A.T. than jungle warfare, Dan summons up some everyman moxie, saves the day (and his neck) and takes you along every riotous step of the way!

Raw and unforgettable, Stalingrad provides an unvarnished look at one of the biggest factors in the Allied victory.
Stalingrad
The long and bloody battle that marked the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany is the subject of this Emmy-nominated World War II documentary.

Airplane!
In this joke-a-second parody of disaster movies, traumatized former combat pilot Ted Striker (Robert Hays) is forced to land a passenger plane when food poisoning strikes the crew.

Windtalkers
Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage) is a gung-ho Marine assigned to protect a "windtalker" -- one of several Navajo Indians who were used to relay messages during World War II because their spoken language was indecipherable to Japanese code breakers.
