Octane / Dolphins (2007)
Action | Drama | Romance
Brent Black lives in one of the roughest parts of town, and spends most days looking after his alcoholic father and younger brother. About a year ago, Brent purchased a Ford Capri for fifty quid, and ever since then he's been under the hood tinkering away. Now he's got the fastest, meanest Capri in the country, and as a result he's become the default leader of the coolest racing gang in Brighton. But as winter closes in, a new challenge appears: The Bling London Boy Racers fear no road, and they drive like they're headed straight to hell. They think they can leave Brent's seasoned crew of asphalt shredders in the dust, but just one week before the big race everything starts to fall apart. His garage burnt to the ground and his car destroyed, Brent contemplates what it will take to win the race while falling for Ophelia James, a gorgeous, posh punk angel who's addicted to danger.

The Winner (1996)
Comedy | Crime | Thriller
Vincent D'Onofrio stars as Philip, a soft-spoken, rather dimwitted young man who stumbles into an incredible lucky streak in Las Vegas. Every Sunday, he enters the same casino, wins some money, and goes home. While Philip himself is pretty nonchalant about his lucky streak, it earns him the attention of a lot of unsavory characters. Louise, a tacky nightclub singer, and her impotent hitman boyfriend, Jack, plan to get Philip to fall in love with Louise and offer her a fortune to pay off her debt to the sinister, seemingly omnipotent Kingman, the casino owner who employs Jack. A small-time hood, Joey and his motley crew plan to rip Philip off, but their plans are complicated when the antic, impulsively violent Joey begins to feel a strange attraction to his would-be prey. Wolf, Philip's thuggish brother (and Louise's former lover) arrives in town, practically guaranteeing some kind of violent showdown.
Starring: Rebecca De Mornay, Vincent D'Onofrio, Richard Edson, Saverio Guerra, Delroy Lindo, Michael Madsen
