Steven Soderbergh's Side Effects scheduled to hit the screens in 2013 is centered on unfortunate woman Emily Hawkins who is waiting for her husband to be released from a prison. As the release time comes closer, Emily is showing more signs of anxiety. This anxiety leads to serious psychological issues and Emily takes psychologist consultations. The doctor prescribes a new drug to heal her troubled mind – a brand new wonder of modern pharmaceutical industry. The pills help Emily but incredibly effective medication shows its side effects. Now the issues caused by the pills seem to be much more threatening than initial Emily's troubles. Previously named The Better Pills, Side Effects isn't the first Steven Soderbergh's movie project in the field of "applied psychotechnics", just remember his We Need to Talk About Kevin and Playground; neither for Rooney Mara who plays the leading role in Side Effects, her remarkable roles in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Social Network have showed a great potential of this brilliant actress. The rest of the cast ensemble is awesome too: Channing Tatum, Vinessa Shaw, Jude Law, Catherine Zeta-Jones, David Costabile and Mamie Gummer – not every movie can boast such a set of great actors gathered in single project.

Ballet 422 is a 2015 documentary by cinematographer and documentarian Jody Lee Lipes, and offers viewers a rare look behind the curtain of the professional world of ballet.

Interlocking worlds is the main advantage of The Lovely Bones movie. Peter Jackson has managed to build two universes, two micro-cosmoses. One is the real America of the 70th, a provincial town in which this thriller takes place. The second is a world of fantasies and illusions of Susie, the movie protagonist. It is the space of inexpressible beauty, with the number of perfect landscapes, oases of the dreams. It's so exciting, that will not immediately come to mind at least some analogues, this magical fantasy world in which dwells Susie, do not even comparable with something else. And Jackson so subtly approached the issue that has managed through unprecedented visual beauty and conveys the inner meaning of which he endowed with a beautiful image of the protagonist.
