The 1972 Best Picture Oscar-winner is a great pulp drama
Selena Quintanilla Pérez, the barrier-crashing Tejano singer who was murdered at the age of 23, is the subject of this biopic that was also the breakout film role for Jennifer Lopez.
Guest's mockumentary tracks visiting drama teacher Corky St. Clair's biggest challenge: creating a workable musical revue celebrating his Missouri town's sesquicentennial using only local players.
This documentary Oscar winner is a vivid retelling of the "Rumble in the Jungle," in which Muhammad Ali bested George Foreman in a storied boxing match in Kinshasa, Zaire.
