Barta [ENG] Serving seven consecutive terms, Anthony Weiner, good friends with and political allies to the Clintons, was once a highly respected member of Congress from New York City, he seen as a man sticking up for the every day person. That all changed in June, 2011 when he was forced to resign in disgrace after admitting that he did tweet lewd "headless" photos of himself from his public Twitter account to women he met online, and that it was not the work of a hacker or that the photos were of someone else. At the time, his wife Huma Abedin, herself a key aide to Hillary Clinton, was pregnant with their first child, she who decided to stand by her man. Two years later with Abedin still by his side, Weiner tries to resurrect his political career in a run for New York City mayor. He realizes that he has an uphill battle not only because of the known previously tweeted photos, but that there are other lewd photos from that era that may also come to light during the campaign. Regardless of the ... [Imdb] *********** The dizzying rush of Weiner is that the phenomenon it captures — a political culture in which candidates are round-the-clock addicts of image control — becomes, by the end, a powerful premonition of the current presidential campaign. The achievement of Weiner is that the movie shows us what that looks like — and the crushing toll it takes not just on democracy, but on reality.  [Owen Gleiberman, Variety] [RT Critics Consensus] Weiner uses sharp insight and untrammeled access to offer a portrait of a political and personal collapse that's as queasy as it is undeniably compelling.

Filmska priredba prvega dela trilogije A Scots Quair Lewisa Grassica Gibbona. Želim, da moj gledalec verjame, da sem poskušal povedati resnico.

Filmski kotiček, 15. december 2016 ― Slo naslov: Vojni psi Država: ZDA Jezik: Angleščina Leto: 2016 Dolžina: 114',  Imdb Žanri: Komedija, Krimi, Drama Slo recenzija: Mladina, RTV SLO MMC, Koridor Režija: Todd Phillips Scenarij: Stephen Chin, Todd Phillips Igrajo: Miles Teller, Jonah Hill, Ana de Armas, Kevin Pollak, Jeff Pierre, Valentina Lucia Faltoni, Barry Livingston [SLO] Jonah Hill in Miles Teller kot trgovca z orožjem. Zabava je zagotovljena! Film je režiral Todd Philips, zaslužen za trilogijo Prekrokana noč, po neverjetni resnični zgodbi o dveh dvajsetletnikih Davidu Packouzu in Efraimu Diveroliju, ki sta uspela podpisati 300 milijonov vredno pogodbo s Pentagonom za oskrbo z orožjem zaveznikov v Afganistanu. V filmu ju spremljamo sredi absurdnega vrtiljaka političnega sveta mednarodne trgovine z orožjem, zaradi katerega bosta obtožena za prevaro. Dva prijatelja (oskarjevi nominiranec Jonah Hill in Miles Teller) z Miami Beacha med iraško vojno s pridom izkoriščata slabo poznano vladno iniciativo, ki manjšim podjetnikom omogoča, da se priglasijo za pogodbe za sodelovanje z ameriško vojsko. Začneta skromno, počasi začneta pridobivati vse več denarja in si privoščita življenje na veliki nogi. A kmalu se znajdeta v godlji, ko dobita posel za 300 milijonov dolarjev, prek katerega naj bi orožje prodajala afganistanski vojski – pri tem pa morata sodelovati s precej sumljivimi posamezniki, med katerimi so tudi predstavniki ameriške vlade. [Kolosej] [ENG] Two friends in their early 20s (Hill and Teller) living in Miami Beach during the Iraq War exploit a little-known government initiative that allows small businesses to bid on U.S. Military contracts. Starting small, they begin raking in big money and are living the high life. But the pair gets in over their heads when they land a 300 million dollar deal to arm the Afghan Military - a deal that puts them in business with some very shady people, not the least of which turns out to be the U.S. Government. Based on true events. [Warner Bros

Milena je petdesetletna žena in mati, z udobnim življenjem v enem prestižnejših predmestij Beograda. Neguje svoj videz, se videva s prijateljicami ter predano skrbi za svojega moža in družino. A počasi se v njeno urejeno življenje pritihotapi neprijetna resnica: nekega dne med pospravljanjem stanovanja naleti na videoposnetek, ki priča o grozovitih zločinih njenega moža med nedavno vojno v Bosni in Hercegovini. Razmišljala sem o ženski, ki je v resnici ljubljena žena enega od vpletenih v vojne operacije v Bosni. Poskušala sem jo razumeti, ugotoviti, kaj se plete v njeni glavi, saj sem bila vsa vojna leta popolnoma drugačne oseba od nje. Bila sem dejavna, dajala sem intervjuje, bila sem protivojna aktivistka s številnimi govori. Zato gre za zgodbo o povprečni ženski srednjih let, ki nikoli ni podvomila o svojem življenju, nikoli globlje razmišljala o ozadju njenega lagodnega življenja.  (Mirjana Karanović)  [ENG] Milena is a middle-aged wife and mother ensconced comfortably behind a gate in an upscale suburb of Belgrade.
