DEAD POETS SOCIETY 

Time: 14:00-16:30, January 19, 2007
Venue: 3rd Floor, Rose Garden Tower, 170 Ngoc Khanh Street, Hanoi

In an age defined by crew cuts, sport coats and cheerless conformity, he got only broke the mold…he reinvented it. Academy Award® winner Robin Williams (Best Supporting Actor, Good Will Hunting, 1997) delivers an extraordinary performance in one of the most compelling motion pictures of all time.
Williams stars as English professor John Keating, a passionate iconoclast who changes his students’ lives forever when he challenges them to live life to the fullest and “Carpe Diem”- seize the day! Keating’s unconventional approach meets with irrepressible enthusiasm from his student, but the faculty at staid, exclusive Welton Academy prep school is, to put it mildly, not amused. Featuring a star –making performance by Ethan Hawke and over three hours of never-before-seen bonus material, this Special Edition of Dead Poets Society will captivate and inspire you again and again.

 

SOME LIKE IT HOT 

Time: 14:00-16:30, January 26, 2007
Venue: 3rd Floor, Rose Garden Tower, 170 Ngoc Khanh Street, Hanoi

When Chicago musicians Joe (Tony Curtis) and Jerry (Jack Lemmon) accidentally witness a gangland shooting, they quickly board a southbound train to Florida, disguised as Josephine and Daphne, the two newest - and homeliest -members of an all-girl jazz band. Their cover is perfect…until a lovelorn singer (Marilyn Monroe) falls for “Josephine,” an ancient playboy (Joe E. Brown) falls for “Daphne,” and a mod boss (George Raft) refuses to falls for their hoax!
Nominated for 7 academy Awards, Some Like It Hot is the quintessential madcap farce and “one of the greatest of all film comedies” (The Motion Picture Guide).
