Okay....I think these movies are going to be FANASTIC! Both "Things We Lost In the Fire" & "American Gangster" feature heavy hitters in the acting world.
Oscar winner Halle Berry stars as Audrey Burke alongside intensely engaging Benicio Del Toro who plays Jerry Sunborne.
The film is about Halle dealing with the murder of her husband Brian Burke played by David Duchovny and reaching out to Del Toro, her husband's childhood friend, for comfort and sanity in coping with the loss. The two come together to assist one another in prevailing from both the death of Burke and Sunborne's addiction issue. From what I have seen so far, I will definitely be heading to the theaters upon this films release, which is tomorrow October 19th!
Next up is what I think will be the movie of the YEAR! "American Gangster" is the highly anticipated new film starring Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe among countless other super-stars. Based on a true story, Frank Lucas played by Washington is a drug kingpin-turned-informant who is consistently pursued by detective Richie Roberts played by Crowe throughout the movie.
Lucas rose to power by traveling to Asia's Golden Triangle to make his connections, then shipping heroin back to the US in the coffins of soldiers killed in Vietnam. The film also stars T.I., Common, Cuba Gooding Jr., Ruby Dee, and Chiwetel Ejiofor; just to name a few. I know I will be purchasing my tickets online to guaranteed my spot in the theater on November 2nd! Can't wait.
Apparently it's such a good film, Jay-Z was inspired to put out his second post-retirement album which will also be titled "American Gangster" due in stores next month also.
I'm pretty sure neither of the parties will disappoint, as they are both pretty much the best at what they do, at least in my opinion.
