O artigo é longo, mas bastante útil pros cinéfilos... é uma espécie de agenda de lançamentos e comentários dos filmes que vêm por aí este ano. Lembrando que as datas se referem aos EUA, e que as grandes produções geralmente chegam ao Brasil uma ou duas semanas depois. Eu coloquei em negrito aqueles que eu estou realmente doente pra ver :)

2003 Film Preview


JAN. 24

DARKNESS FALLS: The name of the town is Darkness Falls. And they wonder why it's targeted by supernatural evil. (Columbia)

POWER AND TERROR: NOAM CHOMSKY IN OUR TIMES: Documentary about the irrepressible leftist philosopher and his post 9-11 stances. (First Run Features)

THE SLAUGHTER RULE: Football and depression in a bleak Montana winter. Ryan Gosling and David Morse play. (Cowboy Pictures)

JAN. 31

AMEN.: The great Greek political filmmaker Costa-Gavras ("Z,' "Missing') is back with the World War II story of a conscience-stricken Nazi officer who tries to get Pope Pius to do something about the Holocaust. (Kino International)

BIKER BOYZ: A western, with hogs as horses, set in the underground world of motorcycle clubs. "Antwone Fisher's' Derek Luke seeks to unseat, literally, biker kingpin Laurence Fishburne. No, Jay Leno is not one of the producers. (DreamWorks)

BLIND SPOT: HITLER'S SECRETARY: Acclaimed German documentary in which Traudl Junge describes her three years of service as one of Adolf Hitler's private secretaries. (Sony Classics)

FINAL DESTINATION 2: For those who didn't get there the first time. Teenagers don't realize they're supposed to be dead -- until they're reminded. (New Line)

GOD IS GREAT AND I'M NOT: "Amelie's' Audrey Tautou, in the first of many film appearances this year, plays a French woman who tries to convert to Judaism for love. (Empire Pictures)

THE GURU: Indian dance teacher Jimi Mistry becomes a spiritual celebrity in New York and falls in love with Heather Graham. With Marisa Tomei. (Universal)

LOST IN LA MANCHA: When iconoclastic director Terry Gilliam ("Brazil,' "Twelve Monkeys') invited a documentary crew onto the set of his Don Quixote movie in Spain, he had no idea the trouble-plagued production would collapse within a week. This is all that was salvaged. (IFC Films)

THE RECRUIT: How the CIA picks and prepares its top operatives is the subject of this suspense thriller starring Al Pacino, Colin Farrell and Bridget Moynahan. (Touchstone)

SMOKERS ONLY: A rollerblading street hustler and a struggling female vocalist get into an obsessive affair in the Buenos Aires underworld. (Strand Releasing)

SUDDENLY NAKED: Award-winning Canadian film about a famous author (Wendy Crewson) who has a fling with a younger man. (Pantheon Releasing)

FEB. 7

DELIVER US FROM EVA: A trio of men try to free themselves of their mate's unattached older sister, the meddlesome Eva (Gabrielle Union). Their vehicle of distraction: cash-strapped ladies' man LL Cool J. (Focus)

HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS: Magazine writer Kate Hudson has 10 days to find a guy, get him smitten and get dumped. Her target, ad agency hottie Matthew McConaughey, has bet that he can make any girl fall in love with him in 10 days. Wonder who's gonna win. (Paramount)

FEB. 14

AMANDALA! A REVOLUTION IN FOUR-PART HARMONY: Documentary about the role the genre called freedom music played in the struggle against South African apartheid. Yes, Miriam Makeba and Hugh Masekela appear, but there's so much more ... (Artisan)

DAREDEVIL: Ben Affleck plays the blind Marvel Comics superhero. Jennifer Garner is his lover/nemesis Elektra. Michael Clarke Duncan is big fat bad guy the Kingpin. Mark Steven Johnson is the director. (20th Century Fox)

GERRY: The increasingly quizzical Gus Van Sant's controversial film about two guys named Gerry (Matt Damon and Casey Affleck) who get lost in the desert. Minimal dialogue, avant garde cinematics and the usual Van Sant obtuseness have divided festival audiences on this one. (ThinkFilm)

HE LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME NOT: We always figured that adorable "Amelie' girl was secretly psycho. In this French amour fou- de-do, Audrey Tautou plays an art student in delusional love with a married man. (Samuel Goldwyn)

THE JUNGLE BOOK 2: Disney does more damage to Rudyard Kipling's reputation with this quick-buck animated sequel about the Indian boy raised by rain-forest animals. (Disney)

O FANTASMA: Lisbon, Portugal, has a gay youth culture, too. (Picture This!)

FEB. 21

CHAOS: Coline Serreau (the original "Three Men and a Cradle') directed this drama about a French couple's efforts to save young woman from a life of prostitution. (New Yorker)

DARK BLUE: L.A.'s finest get dragged through the wringer again in this tale of pre-Rodney King riot cop corruption written by James Ellroy. Kurt Russell, Brendan Gleeson and Ving Rhames star for director Ron Shelton. (UA)

GODS AND GENERALS: The same bunch responsible for that "Gettysburg' movie a few years back -- with Robert Duvall mercifully replacing space case Martin Sheen as Robert E. Lee -- return with a sprawling adaptation of Jeff Shaara's book about early Civil War military campaigns. (Warner Bros.)

THE LIFE OF DAVID GALE: Alan Parker directs and Nicolas Cage produces the story of a death penalty opponent (Kevin Spacey) who finds himself on Death Row. Reporter Kate Winslet has but a few days to prove him innocent. (Universal)

OLD SCHOOL: Talk about hanging on to your youth. A bunch of 30-something buds, including Will Ferrell, Luke Wilson and Vince Vaughn, look to re-create their college days by building an off-campus frat house. Todd Phillips, who took on college high jinks in "Road Trip,' directs. (DreamWorks)

OPEN HEARTS: Tragedy strikes two different Danish couples. (Newmarket)

POOLHALL JUNKIES: Sounds like "The Color of Money,' only probably not as good. Chazz Palminteri, Rick Schroder and Alison Eastwood star. (Samuel Goldwyn)

SENORITA EXTRAVIADA: Documentary on those young maquiladora women whose raped and dead bodies turn up in Juarez, Mexico. (Balcony Releasing)

TILL HUMAN VOICES WAKE US: Guy Pearce and Helena Bonham Carter star in a supernatural Australian romance. (Paramount Classics)

MARCH 7

BOAT TRIP: Cuba Gooding Jr., Horatio Sanz, Roselyn Sanchez, Vivica A. Fox and Roger Moore raise "The Love Boat.' (Artisan)

BRINGING DOWN THE HOUSE: Steve Martin plays his millionth uptight guy, a divorced lawyer whose online chatroom babe turns out to be escaped convict Queen Latifah. You're supposed to laugh. (Touchstone)

IRREVERSIBLE: Even unshockable French cineastes had trouble with this latest provocation from Gaspar Noe ("I Stand Alone'). Beginning with a graphic rape/murder, then unfolding backward through the events that led up to the outrage, it stars husband-and-wife acting team Monica Bellucci and Vincent Cassel. (Lions Gate)

LAUREL CANYON: Yes, they mean the street that we Vals know so well. In Lisa ("High Art') Cholodenko's film, the canyon itself is the home of record producer Jane (Frances McDormand), a singer (Alessandro Nivola), Jane's son Sam (Christian Bale) and his fiancee Alex (Kate Beckinsale). Too many people under one Laurel Canyon roof can't be a good thing. (Sony Classics)

MARCH 14

AGENT CODY BANKS: Muniz, Frankie Muniz, plays the undercover teen CIA agent who can race snowmobiles but can't talk to girls. Obviously, James Bond wasn't his mentor. (MGM)

THE HUNTED: William Friedkin directs Oscar winners Tommy Lee Jones and Benicio Del Toro in this thriller about a tracker and an FBI agent on the trail of an assassin. (Paramount)

NOWHERE IN AFRICA: Germany's Oscar contender tells the true story of a Jewish family that escaped the Nazis and sat out the war on a farm in Kenya. (Zeitgeist Films)

LE CERCLE ROUGE: Re-release of Jean-Pierre Melville's ultra-stylish French crime classic from 1970. Alain Delon and Yves Montand star. (Rialto)

MARCH 21

SPUN: Crystal meth tweakers Jason Schwartzman, John Leguizamo, Brittany Murphy, Mickey Rourke and Mena Suvari take some bad trips, dude. (Newmarket)

VIEW FROM THE TOP: Gwyneth Paltrow and Christina Applegate try to be stewardesses. It's supposed to be funny. (Miramax)

WILLARD: Remake of the rat-infested thriller with Crispin Glover and "Mulholland Drive's' Laura Elena Harring. (New Line)

MARCH 28

ASSASSINATION TANGO: Triple-threat Robert Duvall directs, writes and stars in this tale of a hit man who becomes intoxicated with the sensual dance in Argentina. (UA)

BUFFALO SOLDIERS: U.S. personnel stationed in Germany behave mighty badly as the Iron Curtain prepares to fall. The release of this film -- which stars Joaquin Phoenix, Ed Harris and Anna Paquin -- was apparently held back due to patriotic concerns. (Miramax)

THE CORE: The Earth's inner core has stopped rotating, meaning the atmosphere is in jeopardy ... unless a team of geophysicists on a mission to the center of the Earth can save the day. Aaron Eckhart, Bruce Greenwood and Hilary Swank co-star. (Paramount)

THE GUYS: Screen adaptation of Anne Nelson's two-character play about a fire captain and a journalist working on the eulogies of firefighters killed in the 9-11 attacks. Jim Simpson directs his wife, Sigourney Weaver, and Anthony LaPaglia. (Focus)

MAY: Described as Carrie meets Frankenstein. Civilization ends again. (Lions Gate)

APRIL 4

COWBOY BEBOP: THE MOVIE: Bounty hunters in a disaster-stricken future populate this big-screen version of the popular Japanese anime series. (IDP)

LEVITY: Yes, it's probably an ironic title, what with Billy Bob Thornton playing a convicted killer, released from prison, who is trying to start a new life. Morgan Freeman, Holly Hunter and Kirsten Dunst also star. (Sony Classics)

THE MAN WITHOUT A PAST: Finnish film by Aki Kaurismaki about a man who travels to Helsinki, is mugged, loses his memory, and discovers love and a new set of values. (Sony Classics)

MY BABY'S MAMA: Three bachelors (Eddie Griffin, Anthony Anderson, Michael Imperioli) discover hilarious things about themselves when their respective girlfriends all get pregnant. (Miramax)

RIPLEY'S GAME: John Malkovich plays Patricia Highsmith's sophisticated sociopath, like Matt Damon and Dennis Hopper before him. (Fine Line)

WHAT A GIRL WANTS: Professional TV kid Amanda Bynes plays an American girl who finds her long-missing father is a snooty British politician (Colin Firth). (Warner Bros.)

APRIL 11

ANGER MANAGEMENT: Before you give Jack Nicholson that "About Schmidt' Oscar, consider that his next movie is with Adam Sandler. Sounds like they'll both be playing to their strengths, though, which would be lack of the title commodity. (Columbia)

DIRTY PRETTY THINGS: Suspenseful study of illegal immigrants trying to make their livings in London's underground economy. Audrey Tautou ("Amelie') stars for director Stephen Frears ("The Grifters,' "My Beautiful Laundrette'). (Miramax)

FELLINI: I'M A BORN LIAR: The ultimate Italian filmmaker profiled with interview footage of the departed maestro and comments from such collaborators as Roberto Benigni, Donald Sutherland and Terence Stamp. (First Look Features)

GHOSTS OF THE ABYSS: James Cameron's high-tech exploration of the actual Titanic wreck will be presented in 3-D in both standard 35mm and IMAX-size formats. Bill Paxton narrates. (Touchstone)

MONDAYS IN THE SUN: The film that beat out Pedro Almodovar's exquisite "Talk to Her' as Spain's official Oscar entry. Javier Bardem stars in this study of unemployed shipyard workers. It had better be good. (Lions Gate)

RAISING VICTOR VARGAS: A teenage goofball from New York's Lower East Side tries to prove he's a ladies man. (Samuel Goldwyn/Fireworks)

SHAOLIN SOCCER: Kung fu aspirants draw together an unusually acrobatic football team in this special-effects stunt comedy, reportedly the most popular Hong Kong film ever made. (Miramax)

XX/XY: A three-way romantic relationship causes complications for its practitioners over a 10-year period. Mark Ruffalo and Kathleen Robertson star. (IFC Films)

APRIL 16

BULLETPROOF MONK: After wandering the globe protecting an ancient scroll, a nameless monk (Chow Yun-Fat) must find a protege (Seann William Scott) to be the scroll's new guardian. But evil forces want that scroll something fierce. (MGM)

CHASING PAPI: Three Latinas discover they've all been dating the same guy. Comeuppance plans lead to wacky misadventures. (20th Century Fox)

THE GOOD THIEF: Nick Nolte plans a casino heist in Nice. Neil Jordan directs. Based on the French classic "Bob Le Flambeur.' (Fox Searchlight)

A MIGHTY WIND: Those "Best in Show' cutups Christopher Guest and Eugene Levy are back with another mockumentary. This one's about three 1960s folk groups reuniting for a memorial concert. The usual ensemble -- director, co-writer, Michael McKean, Catherine O'Hara, Parker Posey, Harry Shearer, Fred Willard -- reunite, too. (Warner Bros.)

APRIL 18

BASIC: Everybody's favorite movie couple -- "Pulp Fiction's' John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson -- are finally back together. But will this story about an investigation into a military disaster be as cool? (Columbia)

DOWN WITH LOVE: "Far From Heaven' remade Douglas Sirk '50s weepies with modern attitude. Now they're doing the same with Doris Day romantic comedies. Before you shrug "but why,' note that it's directed by Peyton Reed, who made the surprisingly good "Bring It On.' And it stars Renee Zellweger and Ewan McGregor. (20th Century Fox)

HOLES: Kid criminals at a dentention camp are put to work digging, well, holes, in which the corrupt camp administrators Jon Voight and Sigourney Weaver obviously hope to find something valuable. (Disney)

HOW TO DEAL: Mandy Moore stars as a teenager who, due to the empirical evidence around her, thinks love sucks. She discovers otherwise. (New Line)

LILYA 4-EVER: Acclaimed Swedish film about an abandoned Russian teenager who, seeking a better life in Scandinavia, is swallowed up by drugs and the sex trade. (Newmarket)

MALIBU'S MOST WANTED: The glitzy community's top rapper is embarrassed by his father's bid for governor -- and, of course, vice versa. (Warner Bros.)

SWEET 16: A poor Scottish youth has trouble avoiding the life of crime that has ruined his parents in this latest expression of social consciousness from British director Ken Loach. (Lions Gate)

THE TRIP: The gay rights struggles of the 1970s are examined via their impact on one couple's relationship. (TLA)

WINGED MIGRATION: Birds, birds and more birds doing what birds do, in this documentary by director Jacques Perrin. (Sony Classics)

APRIL 25

BLUE CAR: A teenage poet (Agnes Bruckner) from a troubled family background is mentored by English teacher David Strathairn. But then things get out of hand in this provocative film-festival favorite. (Miramax)

CITY OF GHOSTS: A scam artist flees to Bangkok in search of his partner in crime. But the city may be too much for even him. With Matt Dillon, James Caan, Gerard Depardieu and Natascha McElhone. Dillon also directs. (UA)

CONFIDENCE: Con artists get in over their heads when they try to swindle an eccentric mob boss. The cool cast includes Dustin Hoffman, Edward Burns, Rachel Weisz, Andy Garcia, Donal Logue and Luis Guzman. (Lions Gate)

FROM JUSTIN TO KELLY: "American Idol' finalists Guarini and Clarkson make their very own musical romantic comedy. OK, that's the final nail in civilization's coffin. (20th Century Fox)

IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY: Indeed it does. Three generations of Douglases (Kirk, Michael and Cameron, plus Kirk's former wife and Michael's mother, Diana) join one Culkin (Rory) and a Peters (Bernadette) in this tale of fathers, sons and grandchildren. (MGM)

PEOPLE I KNOW: Another film long delayed due to post 9-11 sensitivities, this one reportedly boasts a terrific Al Pacino performance as a New York publicist facing a crisis of conscience. Apparently, he at one point had some hallucination involving the World Trade Center, too. (Miramax) (Já lançado no Brasil como "O Articulador" - vejam a cotação ai ao lado)

APRIL UNSCHEDULED

BETTER LUCK TOMORROW: Acclaimed and controversial film about overachieving and amoral Asian-American youth. (MTV Films)

MAY 2
