(US, 2008 wr/dir by Jonathan Levine)
It’s the summer of 1994 in NYC, and Luke Shapiro (Josh Peck), a teenage loser who deals pot from an ice-cream cart, is trying to beat depression and find love in his last summer before college.

Fortunately for Luke, he’s worked out a great deal with his shrink, Dr. Squires (Ben Kingsley), trading weed for therapy. Squires’ dubious advice to Luke—that he simply needs to get laid—is influenced not only by pot, but also by the fact that his own marriage to trophy-wife Kristin (Famke Janssen) is utterly frozen. The object of Luke’s affection happens to be Squires’ stepdaughter Stephanie (JUNO’s Olivia Thirlby), and while the two unlikely friends seek to stir the flames of passion, they begin parallel journeys to maturity. R. 110 mins.

(France 2006, dir by Guillaume Canet)
A phenomenonal success in France, this stylish thriller, based on Harlen Coben’s best-selling novel, is a variation on Hitchcock’s “wronged man” theme.

A widowed doctor, Alexandre Beck (François Cluzet) comes under renewed suspicion when his wife’s murder case is re-opened. He’s still grieving for Margot (Marie-José Croze) eight years after her murder when he watches webcam footage of her apparently alive and well before being warned to “Tell no one. They’re watching”. Two bodies are then recovered where Margot was murdered, and the police assume Beck is involved, a situation which the mysterious ‘they’ seem intent on exploiting. So Beck has no choice but to go on the lam while trying to work out exactly what’s going on and whether his beloved wife is actually still alive. The film’s frantic and nerve-wracking action set pieces are brilliant. The cast includes Kristen Scott Thomas, André Dussollier and François Berléand. In French with subtitles.
 unrated. 125 mins.

Hardly anyone can make a good old American suspense thriller like the French. –Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter
