Girl On a Bicycle

Jeremy Leven

Every day, bus driver Paolo (Vincenzo Amato) drives tourists through Paris and fervently explains to them his own point of view - that Paris is nothing more than a second-class Rome! His true passion is his girlfriend and great love Greta (Nora Tschirner), a German flight attendant he is finally ready to propose to today. But as it happens, the very next day, he meets the enchanting Frenchwoman Cécile (Louise Monot). The young single mother of two just barely gets by as an advertising model and is always rushing from one appointment to the other on her bicycle. At a red light, her glance briefly meets that of the tourist bus driver - and she smiles at him. From that moment on, Paolo can't think straight anymore. He's in love with Greta, but this unknown beauty has turned him on his head. His best friend Derek (Paddy Considine), a smart Brit with a penchant for womanizing, gives him a disastrous piece of advice - the only way to forget this woman is to meet her - because reality is never as wonderful as the fantasy image. But his attempt to talk to Cécile goes wrong - when he hits the girl on a bicycle with his bus. Plagued by a guilty conscience, Paolo decides to take care of Cécile and her little family, of course without telling Greta about it. A small lie that turns his life completely upside down!


The Legend of Bagger Vance

Robert Redford

Robert Redford directed this adaptation of a novel by Steven Pressfield that uses golf as a metaphor for one man's spiritual and philosophical journeys. Rannulph Junuh (Matt Damon) was a gifted amateur golfer from Savannah, GA, until traumatic experiences during World War I shattered his confidence and sent him into a spiral of alcoholism. In 1931, Adele Invergordon (Charlize Theron), a beautiful heiress who once loved Junuh, inherits a spectacular but financially ailing golf course after the suicide of her father. To attract customers, she proposed a high-stakes match between the two most famous golfers of the day, Bobby Jones (Joel Gretsch) and Walter Hagen (Bruce McGill). Local businessmen sponsoring the match insist that a local golfer be added to the card, and Junuh is drafted for the position, but it soon becomes obvious that his game is just a shadow of its former glory. When things seem hopeless, a mysterious gentleman named Bagger Vance (Will Smith) volunteers to serve as Junuh's caddy and coach, using a mixture of ancient wisdom and past-life knowledge to help Junuh “remember" the swing he's lost. Jack Lemmon narrates the story, and J. Michael Moncrief plays Lemmon's character as a boy.
