What if the murderers are the ones you trust... waiting for the kill. Somewhere deep inside the Santa Fe desert there have been a number of blood curdling murders... a real killing spree. The local police station is in disarray. Captain Billings, Officers Degrasso and Wright have apprehended three witnesses: Officer Jack Bennet, one of their own, tough, but affected by recent events; Bobby, young, high as a kite on cocaine; and Stephanie, eight years old, who has just witnessed her family being brutally murdered by two figures dressed in jumpsuits, gloves, boots, and horrifyingly disfiguring blue latex masks. Even though everyone is ready to go, they are still waiting... waiting for the Feds to arrive. As the witnesses tell their stories one by one to the FBI agents who have now taken over, the murderous events unravel before our eyes. It becomes clear, little Stephanie knows something, something about the agents, Hallaway and Anderson. And then two more bodies have been found...

On a one way ticket to self destruction Joe realizes the only way to save himself is by returning to a place he's been running from his entire life, his childhood, a place ruled by a love he desperately wants to remember and a catastrophe he'll do anything to forget. Starring Daniel Craig, FLASHBACKS OF A FOOL is a tender ode to first love, a shocking fable of soul wrenching tragedy, and a poignant, powerful journey of forgiveness, redemption and healing in the heartbreaking tradition of PRINCE OF TIDES.

This is a story about the passion of youth and the universal theme of the underdog triumphing over the establishment. A story full of emotion, humor, action and the suspense of a classic heist movie. Written and directed by Charles Martin Smith (AIR BUD, THE SNOW WALKER) STONE OF DESTINY tells the story of Ian Hamilton, a dedicated nationalist who reignited Scottish national pride in the 1950s with his daring raid on the heart of English colonialism to bring the Stone of Scone back home. At the heart of Stone of Destiny is the passionate journey to right a wrong. Starring as Hamilton is Charlie Cox (CASSANOVA, STARDUST). Joining Cox in the star studded cast are Kate Mara (Shooter, Brokeback Mountain), Billy Boyd (LORD OF THE RINGS), Robert Carlyle (TRAINSPOTTING, 28 WEEKS LATER) and Academy Award winning actress Brenda Fricker.
