Selma is one of those movies that  just doesn't come around too often. The film is an emotional and poignant look at just one major event in Dr. Martin Luther King's journey to achieve equality and civil rights. 

Mark Wahlberg gets serious in, The Gambler. Wahlberg went all method (including losing 60 pounds) to play Jim Bennett a literature professor who  leads a secret life as a high-stakes gambler. Always a risk-taker, Bennett bets it all when he borrows from a gangster and offers his own life as collateral. 

The Imitation Game is starting to garner plenty of attention especially with the numerous awards shows just around the corner. The film stars Benedict Cumberbatch in an award worthy performance as Alan Turing, a genius British logician and cryptologist who helps crack Germany's Enigma Code during World War II but is later prosecuted by his government for illegal homosexual acts. 

Timothy Spall is on a roll! The veteran British actor won the best actor prize  at Cannes for his role as artist J.M.W Turner in his latest film, Mr Turner and was just named the best actor by the New York film critics. There is no doubt that we will be hearing his name called once again when Oscar nominations are announced in January 2015.  

The Hundred Foot Journey starring Helen Mirren is available on Blu Ray on December 2nd. The film centers on Hassan Haji is a young Indian boy living with his family in a small village in the French Alps. His family opens a restaurant just 100 yards from a three-star Michelin rated restaurant owned by the eccentric Madame Mallory. 

Veteran actor Jeffrey Wright is best known for his very serious and dramatic roles, but he is also very proud of the work he has done in the Hunger Game films. Wright is back in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 as Beetee Latier the technical wizard who invents all of Katniss Everdeen's (Jennifer Lawrence) weapons and says he loved every minute of being back on set with the cast and working with the new actors who are introduced in this chapter. 

Mahershala Ali may not be a house old name but he's definitely working on it. The seasoned actor nabbed a prime role opposite Jennifer Lawrence in, The Hunger Games Mockingjay parts 1 and 2 and you can currently see him opposite Kevin Spacey in the Netflix mega hit series, House of Cards as Remy Danton.  

Christopher J. Hanke who who last appeared on the New York stage in the Broadway revival of How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,  has come to Toronto to perform in the hit Off-Broadway solo comedy Buyer & Cellar . The Toronto production runs until November 30th at the Panasonic Theater.   

The gang's all back because let's just face it, there is NEVER a limited supply of Horrible Bosses!  Funny guys Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis and Jason Bateman return for more torture in Horrible Bosses 2 and also returning are the Queen and King of dispicable bosses, played by Jennifer Aniston and Kevin Spacey

The Theory of Everything is truly one of the most extraordinary films I have seen this year. There is no doubt that we will be hearing a lot about this movie and it's stars come awards season.  The amazing young actor Eddie Redmayne took on the daunting task of playing Stephen Hawking and his performance is nothing less than Oscar worthy.
