Movies to Watch

Spent my evening previewing trailers over youtube. There are seven movies that will be shown from now until February that I'm excited to see.

Here they are:

1. The Pursuit of Happyness
Starring: Will Smith Based on a true story about a struggling salesman who can barely make ends meet and eventually gets evicted from his apartment. Together with his son (played by Will's real life son Jaden), he sleeps on subways and shelters by night but interns at a stock brokerage firm by day in pursuit of a better life for him and his son.






2. The Holiday
Starring: Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, Jack Black
Two women who live thousands of miles apart find that they have something in common: man troubles. They meet through a site called "Home Exchange" and agree to switch places and go on a holiday, Amanda (Cameron) flying to England while Iris (Kate) jetting to LA -- hoping to forget their heartaches and accidentally finding love along the way.


3. Miss Potter
Starring: Renee Zellwegger, Ewan McGregor
This is the story of Beatrix Potter, the author of the beloved and best-selling children's book, "The Tale of Peter Rabbit", and her struggle for love, happiness and success.


4. Thr3e
Starring: Marc Blucas
The best-selling novel by Christian fiction writer Ted Dekker is now a movie! Yay!
It's the story of an elusive psychopath murderer whose strange riddles and impossible timelines force three people into a mission to end the game before one or all of them die.

5. Catch and Release
Starring: Jennifer Garner, Juliette Lewis
A woman named Gray struggles to accept the death of her

beloved husband but soon finds out that he had been keeping

secrets she must now deal with as she rebuilds her life.

6. The Invisible
Starring: Justin Chatwin
Nick, is a high school senior with a

bright future until, in a tragic case

of mistaken identity, he is brutally

attacked by a troubled girl, Annie,

and his body is left for dead. Now in

limbo, not quite dead but invisible

to the living, his spirit can only watch

as his mother and the police search

frantically for him, unaware that he is

only hours away from truly perishing.

7. Music and Lyrics

Starring: Drew Barrymore and Hugh Grant

The one that I'm looking forward to most! Hugh Grant plays

an 80's has-been who joins a reality show of musician has-beens and gets tasked to write a new song for this ala Christian Aguilera pop star. Drew plays the Hugh's plant waterer whom he discovers has a knack for creating beautiful lyrics to go with his music. Another romantic comedy must-see!
