WHERE THE TRUTH LIES<br />
WHO’S IN IT? Colin Firth, Kevin Bacon<br />
WHO DIRECTED? Atom Egoyan (Ararat)<br />
WHAT’S IT ABOUT? Egoyan’s films have always had an element of<br />
mystery: Whose fault was the bus crash? Why’s that guy obsessed<br />
with that stripper? What’s really in those film canisters? So it<br />
should come as no surprise that he’s finally made his first full-on<br />
murder mystery.<br />
Leaping back and forth between the 1950s and 1970s,<br />
Egoyan’s 10th feature aims to discover just who killed Maureen<br />
O’Flaherty (Rachel Blanchard). In the mid-’50s, the beautiful<br />
young woman was found dead in a hotel room belonging to Vince<br />
Collins (Firth) and Lanny Morris (Bacon), a popular Lewis and<br />
Martin-esque comedy team. Neither was ever arrested, but 15<br />
years later an ambitious writer (Alison Lohman) with a big book<br />
contract is determined to find out what happened.<br />
The film, which got mixed reviews at Cannes, premieres in<br />
Canada as a gala at this month’s Toronto International Film<br />
Festival before opening across the country in October.<br />

THE GOSPEL<br />
WHO’S IN IT? Clifton Powell, Boris Kodjoe<br />
WHO DIRECTED? Rob Hardy (Trois)<br />
WHAT’S IT ABOUT? When his father the bishop (Powell) gets sick,<br />
a successful R&B singer (Kodjoe) returns home to discover the<br />
congregation he’d rejected years before needs his help. Look for<br />
performances by real R&B artists like Yolanda Adams and Fred<br />
Hammond.<br />
TWO FOR THE MONEY<br />
WHO’S IN IT? Matthew McConaughey, Al Pacino<br />
WHO DIRECTED? D.J. Caruso (Taking Lives)<br />
WHAT’S IT ABOUT? Like Wall Street for the sports set, this<br />
high-stress drama revolves around the powerful head of a huge<br />
sports gambling operation (Pacino) who hires a young former<br />
college football star (McConaughey) and grooms him to be the<br />
face of his company. But, wouldn’t ya know it, greed and egos<br />
get in the way and their once-profitable relationship turns into<br />
a vicious con game.
