If you've ever dreamed about seeing together such a brilliant ensemble cast as Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Helena Bonham Carter, Patrick Godfrey and Sacha Baron Cohen in one movie, your dream has come true with Tom Hooper's film Russell Crowe produced by Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner, Debra Hayward and Cameron Mackintosh. William Nicholson has written a screenplay for this musical based upon the Les Misérables aka Les Mis or Les Miz, a 19-th century French theatre musical which was incredibly popular both in the Europe and America. The original source of Les Misérables is Victor Hugo's novel of the same name which was written in 1862. The story of Les Misérables is focusing on the live and fate of ex-convict Jean Valjean and his experience of the redemption. The musical immerses us in the turmoil of the pre- June Rebellion times starting in 1815 and reaching its pivotal point in 1835 with all the well-known consequences. However, let's back to Tom Hooper's adaptation: the brilliant cast is not the everything of this musical drama – you just need to hear the voice of Russell Crowe singing in Les Misérables to understand what a huge hit you faced.

Brothers is a film of halftones, notes on the margins, where the beauty is in the Details. But, like many other such intricate work, the film seemed not over: cut off in mid-sentence. The brothers conflict ends with the simple phrase. Sam's internal conflict, the break of conscience after capture in Afghanistan is just honesty. From this point of view Brothers are perceived only a demonstration of acting, the spectacular, of course, but still remaining essentially "the casting". Psychological observations, the reliability of the details and fine texture of the characters are the wonderful elements of the movie, but really outstanding masterpieces are crowned with the point, not the dots.

"Slumdog Millionaire" is a 2008 British drama film directed by Danny Boyle, and tells the story of a young Indian boy named Jamal who grows up in the slums of Mumbai.

Disgrace is the movie based on the novel by John Coetzee, a Nobel Prize winner. It contains neither morals (what morality can be deduced from such a name?), nor appeals for tolerance, and something like a Hidden of Michael Haneke. There are gaps between blacks and whites which can be found in each episode. The movie does neither overwhelm by political correctness, nor features the newfound equal rights. The tragedy, as the philosopher said, not in collision of right and wrong sides. The tragedy is that both sides are right. Africa and Europe, black and white, villages and cities, children, and fathers: the conflict is known to be eternal, the only question is: does it stands at the level of mutual recriminations and petty mischief like a broken windshield, or grow into genocide or civil war.
