Eight Below

When an unforeseen accident forces a trio of Antarctic scientists (Paul Walker, Bruce Greenwood and Jason Biggs) to leave behind their team of steadfast sled dogs, the animals must survive a cruel and punishing winter on their own. Revealing his penchant for subzero survival stories, Frank Marshall (Alive) helmed this heartrending drama, which was adapted from a Japanese film (Nankyoku Monogatari) based on real events.

The Day the Earth Stood Still

A sci-fi hallmark (and wry commentary on the political climate of the 1950s), The Day the Earth Stood Still is less concerned with special effects than with its potent message. A humanoid messenger (Michael Rennie) from another world lands in Washington, D.C., with a warning to Earth's people to cease their violent behavior. But panic erupts when Rennie is shot by a nervous soldier and his robot companion, Gort, begins to destroy the capital.

F**k

Do the Right Thing

Spike Lee directs and stars in this controversial film that traces a sweltering summer day in the life of one of New York's toughest neighborhoods. The stellar cast includes Danny Aiello, Ossie Davis, Ruby Dee, Richard Edson, Giancarlo Esposito, Samuel L. Jackson, Bill Nunn, Rosie Perez and John Turturro. This powerful portrait of urban racial tensions -- which ultimately boil over into a climactic riot -- earned popular and critical praise.

A string of Hollywood A-list celebs -- including Oprah Winfrey, Steve Buscemi, Jennifer Garner, Kathy Bates and Robert Redford -- give voice to E.B. White's beloved barnyard characters in this updated retelling of the classic children's tale.

Ed Wood

Heralded as the "worst director of all time," Ed Wood certainly made the movies to prove it. In one of his best performances, Johnny Depp plays the grinning goof with a sunny disposition who loved to direct epically bad films while dressed in women's undergarments. As aging horror icon Bela Lugosi, Martin Landau's Oscar-winning supporting turn almost steals the film. Sarah Jessica Parker and Bill Murray co-star; Tim Burton directs.

A Boy and His Dog

Vic (a young Don Johnson) roams a postapocalyptic wasteland accompanied by his telepathic, ever-grumbling dog, eventually winding up in the clutches of a female-dominated underground society that wants his sperm. This low-budget cult film remains darkly humorous and unflinchingly brutal as its characters face difficult choices -- and the end of the world as they know it.

Game 6

Legendary scribe Don DeLillo wrote this fascinating film about a New York playwright, Nicky Rogan (Michael Keaton), who's immersed in failure. Unable to ride the coattails of success no matter how hard he tries, Nicky distracts himself from his endless career woes by obsessing about those of others -- namely, the perpetual underdogs of baseball, the Boston Red Sox. But Nicky can't sit out the game of life forever. Michael Hoffman directs.

Blow

Flying high on his own supply, charismatic drug dealer George Jung (Johnny Depp) is cocaine central for about 85 percent of the U.S. market during the 1970s. Jung becomes fabulously wealthy, marries a Colombian beauty (Penélope Cruz) and then loses it all when the feds zero in on his operation. A rags-to-riches-to-rags tale based on a true story.

Blade Runner

In the smog-choked dystopian Los Angeles of 2019, blade runner Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) is called out of retirement to snuff a quartet of "replicants" -- androids consigned to slave labor on remote planets. They've escaped to Earth seeking their creator and a way to extend their short life spans. Director Ridley Scott's reedited version comes with a different ending and the omission of Ford's narration, giving the film a different tone.

Dark Days

Documentarian Marc Singer focuses his camera on a group of homeless people who live deep underground in an abandoned New York City railroad tunnel. By day, they scavenge for food on the mean streets of Manhattan. At night, they retreat to the tunnel, where they've built huts out of scrap metal, plastic and plywood. Amazingly, they have electricity, furniture, working kitchens and a sense of community many surface dwellers would envy.
