 Jayne Mansfield's Car (2012) Certificate R 122 min - Drama Alabama; 1969: The death of a clan's estranged wife and mother brings together two very different families. Do the scars of the past hide differences that will tear them apart, or expose truths that could lead to unexpected collisions? Director: Billy Bob Thornton Stars: Tippi Hedren, Kevin Bacon, Ray Stevenson, Robert Patrick The kindest reviews of Billy Bob Thornton's return to the director's chair have called it "dense" and peppered with "unexpected moments", but these gentle remarks run parallel to critiques that compared his two-family period piece to the car crash that claimed Ms. Mansfield's life. Maybe the next project to bring together Thornton and his occasional co-writing partner Tom Epperson will connect with audiences. &nbs

Director: Thomas Vinterberg Stars: Mads Mikkelsen, Thomas Bo Larsen, Annika Wedderkopp, Lasse Fogelstrøm Filmmaker Thomas Vinterberg is back on the international film circuit in a major way with a lean, dark, black-humored thriller where a small-town community's moral foundation begins to fracture after one of its own is accused of abuse.

 Berberian Sound Studio (2012) 92 min - Drama | Horror | Thriller A sound engineer's work for an Italian horror studio becomes a terrifying case of life imitating art. Director: Peter Strickland Stars: Toby Jones, Antonio Mancino, Guido Adorni, Susanna Cappellaro You set a film within the realm of Italian horror movie-making, you have a built-in audience. You cast Toby Jones as the lead, and you have a chance of creating the kind of slow building word-of-mouth that equates writer-director Peter Strickland's to the best films of the aforementioned genre. We can't vouch for the picture just yet since we have yet to see it, but it had one of the best trailers in some time. &
