Changeling / Girl, Interrupted / The Good Shepherd DVD

Changeling -

Though the pedigree--a screenplay from BABYLON 5's J. Michael Straczynski--might suggest a science fiction film, THE CHANGELING is a historical thriller in the vein of L.A. CONFIDENTIAL or CHINATOWN and is directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Clint Eastwood. Angelina Jolie stars as a mother whose son disappears in 1928 Los Angeles. When he returns months later, she realizes that he is not her child.

Girl, Interrupted -

Two-time Oscar nominee Winona Ryder stars in this moving and inspirational film based on a true story about one young woman's experience inside a psychiatric hospital. Questionably diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, Susanna (Ryder) rebels against the head nurse (Whoopi Goldberg) and top psychiatrist (Vanessa Redgrave), choosing instead to befriend her fellow inmates - a group of troubled young women, in particular the seductively charismatic sociopath, Lisa - a force to be reckoned with, played by Oscar winning actress Angelina Jolie. Susanna resolves to reclaim her freedom, but first she'll have to face the person who terrifies her most of all... herself.

The Good Shepherd -

Father Daniel Clemens (Christian Slater) becomes increasingly convinced that a colleague has been wrongly charged with murder. When the accused then commits suicide, Clemens takes over his post with the intention of solving the mystery. With the help of his childhood sweetheart he embarks upon a quest that may lead to further bloodshed but might just lead him to the truth and his true calling.
