Saddle Up boys & Girls, here's the trailer for The Last Rites of Ransom Pride
So how do you like Westerns? Im not a great fan my dad loved them especially the spaghetti ones, well seems that western movies are coming back into fashion again. Below is the trailer for The Last Rites of Ransom Pride a western that could bring back a little bit of cult status many westerns especially spagehtti westerns.
The movie does have a stellar line up of known names: Lizzy Caplan, Kris Kristofferson, Dwight Yoakam, Peter Dinklageand Jason Priestley. The story is simple one of a woman trying to bring her outlawed lover home for burial but as usual nothing is straight forward. All together this does look like a solid produce movie with some fast and thick action, c'mon you have 2 western music legends in yoakim and kristofferson to give the movie that authentic country feel!

Trailer for Erik Matti's THE ARRIVAL
I know this sounds strange, as ive said many times on this blog but more on my other blog I still regard myself as a student Films. After many years of neglect I am finally appreciating the great art, but as I learn its not always what you know about a particular movie or persons sometimes its the poster, the photo that attract me to movies and I can say it was the poster it did it here.
Below is a trailer for Fillipino director Erik Matti's new movie THE ARRIVAL. It s described as a bit of an personal movie for Matti and its all about a withdrawn accountant called Leo simply been one of the good guys for his boss and because of this he's slipped into the background of life. Seen nothing, done nothing even his works security guards mistaken for been a new employee even after 3 years been there!
As I said its a personal movie and Erik Matti's career in movies has been alot like the character Leo he's one of the good guys, following protocols hiking out movies and get his bossess all the money they desire. But now he's decided enough is enough and decided to make a movie the way he wants and THE ARRIVAL is his first movie since he changed.
Trailer is below and in English subtitles and The Arrival is already out in cinemas in Phillippines.

JOLLY FELLOWS in frocks: Trailer for Russian movie Veselchaki
They used to say for many years countries like Russia despite saying they where a very "opened" state, peoples from minorities as well religious and sexuality would have never have happened. Roll on to 21 st century the Russian movie industry has now really opened up covering areas never even dreamed been filmed until now; Prostitution, hippies, drug addicts, skinheads and now homosexuality.
Below is the trailer for Veselchaki (Весельчаки) or in English Jolly Fellows. The movie covers the difficulties of been gay in Russia, it is an comedy but does have a big drama element to it as well. It covers the emotions and killling of one of the "girls" (the main characters are all drag queens as well) by homophobes.
Still a long way to go but a big thumbs up from Cinehouse to Russian movie industry its time to move on and enjoy life and of course movies!!!
