Anne of the Thousand Days (1969)
Drama | History
Anne of the Thousand Days concentrates on the romance between Britain's King Henry VIII and his ill-fated second wife Anne Boleyn. After holding out for marriage rather than an illegitimate union, Anne marries Henry after he sheds himself of Katherine of Aragon, thus causing a rift between the Crown and the Catholic Church. Anne's inability to produce a male heir leads Henry to look about for other suitable mates. Henry's sinister right-hand man Cromwell arranges for Anne to be condemned on a charge of adultery,after which she is beheaded, while Henry disconsolately sits in Windsor Castle, regretting this callous example of political expediency.

Chicago P.D. (TV Series 2014- )
Action | Drama
District 21 of the Chicago Police Department is made up of two distinctly different groups: The uniformed cops who patrol the beat and deal with street crimes, and the intelligence unit, the team that combats the city's major offenses, such as organized crime, drug trafficking and high-profile murders. Leading the intelligence team is Sgt. Hank Voight, a man not against skirting the law in the pursuit of justice. Demanding and tough, only those who can take the heat survive under Voight's command. Take Det. Antonio Dawson for example. Despite a troubled history with his boss, Dawson has ambitions of running the unit. If that means facing off against Voight every day, he'll persevere. From the street cops with dreams of moving up to the elite crew who are already in, "life on the job" is a daily challenge.

Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom / Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma (1975)
Drama | Thriller | War
Pier Paolo Pasolini was a celebrated poet, writer, and all-around intellectual, but it was his maverick, controversial filmmaking that distinguished him as an influential artistic force. The director's last film, '120 Days Of Sodom', an adaptation of the Marquis de Sade's 18th century novel, remains his most notorious (and most censored) due to its scenes of graphic rape and torture of adolescents. Pasolini relocates the novel's horrific abuses from France to the final days of Mussolini's reign, effectively rendering a grim portrait of the degradation of the human body and spirit beneath Fascist and Nazi rule.
