Description:
ALI (2001):
150 minutes
Loved, reviled, underestimated and oversimplified, Muhammad Ali was anything but ordinary. One thing though was indisputable: he was "The Greatest".
This is what we know. Now prepare for what you don't.
In his Academy Award nominated and critically acclaimed role, Will Smith stars as Ali, the man who dared to take on any opponent in or out of the ring. From black segregation in the 60's to the U.S. Government's involvement in the Vietnam War; Ali made it his own personal fight and paid the ultimate price. Yet despite every move to keep him silent, to stop him boxing, to prevent him from being the best, Muhammad Ali showed that he was never down for the count. So take your ring-side seats. This film packs a punch you never saw coming.

THE HURRICANE (1999):
140 minutes
He's the man who inspired songwriters, actors and everyday people to march on the streets of the U.S. for justice and freedom. His name is Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, and this is the triumphant, powerful true story of his 20 year fight to clear his name. After two trials and a mountain of bungled investigations, Rubin Carter was wrongfully convicted of a triple murder and sent to prison for the rest of his natural life.until the purchase of his autobiography led one young man on a mission to free him. 1989 Academy Award winner, Denzel Washington (Glory), stars in the role critics have hailed as his best yet - as "The Hurricane", the renowned boxer whose toughest opponent was hatred and whose greatest fight was for justice.
