Katzelmacher (DVD)
Rainer Werner Fassbinder directs and stars in this movie as Jorgos, a Greek man who has emigrated to a small German town for work. However, when he arrives, he soon finds that the locals resent him not only for being a foreigner, but for being a communist as well. As Jorgos tries to ingratiate himself with his new neighbors, he succeeds in sparking the interest of some of the town`s females, while only provoking more and more hostile behavior from the local men. Both hailed and reviled in Germany upon its original release, KATZELMACHER helped propel Fassbinder to international prominence and remains a deeply provocative film.NR"

President James Marshall (Harrison Ford) is one of the most respected leaders in the history of America. When Kazakhstanian separatists commit atrocities on their own people, Marshall authorizes a guerrilla mission to take their leader, General Radek (J|rgen Prochnow), into custody and restore the democratic regime. In his speech afterward, the president vows never to let America hesitate again when dealing with terrorists. However, that`s before a group of them, led by the ruthless Korchunov (Gary Oldman) take over his own flight on Air Force One, with his wife and young daughter also on board. President Marshall, a decorated Vietnam veteran, becomes a one-man vigilante force in his efforts to free his family and the other hostages, retake the plane, and thwart the hijackers. Director Wolfgang Petersen`s thrilling film is supported by an excellent ensemble cast, which includes William H. Macy, Philip Baker Hall, and Glenn Close as Kathryn Bennett, the vice president who must hold the Cabinet together in Marshall`s absence.
