Marley & Me

Sweet and wise and often laugh-out-loud funny (just like Grogan's book), Marley & Me, starring Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston, isn't just for dog people.

Das Boot

Back in 1981, when he was still working in his native Germany, director Petersen established himself as an action/suspense director par excellence. Set in a German U-boat during World War II, this claustrophobic suspense drama hasn't a weak bolt anywhere.
