James Franco stars as Jake Epping, a high school teacher at a loss with his life, who wants to make a difference and do something meaningful.

Encouraged by his ailing friend (Chris Cooper), Jake journeys back in time to prevent the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

The story transports audiences into the world of 1960s Texas as Jake explores the multiple mysteries surrounding the alleged assassin Lee Harvey Oswald (Daniel Webber). But Jake’s mission faces threats not only from Oswald, but from Sadie (Sarah Gadon), a beautiful librarian he falls in love with, and from the Past itself… which doesn’t want to be changed.

And if the Past doesn’t want to be changed, it will push back ­– often violently. With something for everyone, this edge-of-your seat mystery offers an epic and emotional thrill ride.

The Nice Guys

Down on his luck private eye Holland March (Ryan Gosling) and world weary muscle-for-hire Jackson Healy (Russell Crowe) have nothing in common until they’re plunged into a life-or-death mystery when the missing persons case they’re both following makes them the target of trained killers.

Now grudgingly working together along with March’s precocious teenage daughter Holly, they must navigate the smog-filled days and neon-soaked nights of 1970’s Los Angeles to follow a labyrinthine trail of clues to finally find Amelia, the missing girl.

But this is only the tip of the iceberg, as Amelia leads them to a multi-billion dollar conspiracy involving a murdered porn star, Amelia’s powerful mother and people at the highest levels of the Detroit auto industry who will do anything to protect their secrets. Healy and March must now call upon all of their resources – legal or otherwise – to save themselves and ensure that the truth comes to light..

 

The Daughter

Set in the last days of a dying logging town, Christian (Schneider) returns to his family home for his father Henry’s (Rush) wedding.

Reconnecting with his childhood friend Oliver (Leslie) and Oliver’s family, wife Charlotte (Otto) and daughter Hedvig (Young), he unearths a long-buried secret.

As he tries to right the wrongs of the past, his actions threaten to shatter the lives of those he left behind years before.
