Let’s watch the first official trailer of The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, the upcoming comedy movie sequel directed by John Madden and starring Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Richard Gere, Bill Nighy, Dev Patel, Penelope Wilton, Celia Imrie, Ronald Pickup, Diana Hardcastle, David Strathairn, and Tina Desai:

THE SECOND BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL

The best is yet to come!

Plot:
“THE SECOND BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL is the expansionist dream of Sonny (Dev Patel), and it’s making more claims on his time than he has available, considering his imminent marriage to the love of his life, Sunaina (Tina Desai). Sonny has his eye on a promising property now that his first venture, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel for the Elderly and Beautiful, has only a single remaining vacancy — posing a rooming predicament for fresh arrivals Guy (Richard Gere) and Lavinia (Tamsin Greig). Evelyn and Douglas (Judi Dench and Bill Nighy) have now joined the Jaipur workforce, and are wondering where their regular dates for Chilla pancakes will lead, while Norman and Carol (Ronald Pickup and Diana Hardcastle) are negotiating the tricky waters of an exclusive relationship, as Madge (Celia Imrie) juggles two eligible and very wealthy suitors. Perhaps the only one who may know the answers is newly installed co-manager of the hotel, Muriel (Maggie Smith), the keeper of everyone’s secrets. As the demands of a traditional Indian wedding threaten to engulf them all, an unexpected way forward presents itself.”

A bunch of (relatively-) rich old people living in some exotic third-world country… great concept… definitely worth a sequel, I guess…

And here’s the film poster:

Release date: March 6, 2015.

Thanks to IFC Films here’s the first official trailer of Camp X-Ray, the upcoming drama movie written and directed by Peter Sattler and starring Kristen Stewart, Peyman Moaadi, John Carroll Lynch, and Lane Garrison:

CAMP X-RAYPlot:
“A young soldier (Kristen Stewart) escapes her suffocating small town by joining the military, only to find that she isn’t going for a tour of duty in Iraq as she hoped. Instead, she’s sent to Guantanamo. Met with hatred and abuse from the Muslim men in her charge, she forges an odd friendship with a young man who has been imprisoned at Gitmo for eight years.”

I’ll go see the film for Kristen Stewart, but can’t say am excited about it. The trailer kind of failed to really get me really interested. What about you?

The release date of Camp X-Ray is set to October 17, 2014.

At the world’s oldest university there’s a club

Plot:
“Set among the privileged elite of Oxford University in England, film follows Miles (Max Irons) and Alistair (Sam Claflin), two first year students determined to join the infamous Riot Club, where reputations can be made or destroyed over the course of a single evening.”

Oxford isn’t the oldest university (the oldest existing, and continually operating educational institution in the world is actually the University of Karueein, founded in 859 AD in Fez, Morocco), but it does look a good movie. So sign me up for The Riot Club!

There’s also a poster:

TESTAMENT OF YOUTH

Remembrance for a lost generation.

In a world of tradition, education would change her life.
Love would change her world.
But war would change everything….

Based on one of the most powerful memoirs of our time.

A testament of love. A testament of hope.

Plot:
“Vera Brittain, irrepressible, intelligent and free-minded, overcomes the prejudices of her family and hometown to win a scholarship to Oxford. With everything to live for, she falls in love with her brother’s close friend Roland Leighton as they go to university to pursue their literary dreams. But the First World War is looming and as the boys leave for the front Vera realises she cannot sit idly by as her peers fight for their country, so volunteers as a nurse. She works tirelessly, experiencing all the grief of war, as one by one her closest friends are all killed and the pillars of her world shattered. But, an indefatigable spirit, Vera endures, rediscovers love and returns to Oxford, irrevocably changed, yet determined to create a world in which such a war can never take place again.”

I guess it’s a moving story… but am not really interested in seeing it. What about you? are you hooked by the trailer?
