This weeks trailers are about Hansel & Gretel, a classified plan, a woman and her son escaping, grandparents babysitting and an elderly choir.

Comment: I thought, why not start with my favorite of the week. How awesome does this look? Really want to see it!


Argo
Description: On November 4, 1979, as the Iranian revolution reaches its boiling point, militants storm the U.S. embassy in Tehran, taking 52 Americans hostage. But, in the midst of the chaos, six Americans manage to slip away and find refuge in the home of the Canadian ambassador. Knowing it is only a matter of time before the six are found out and likely killed, a CIA "exfiltration" specialist named Tony Mendez (Ben Affleck) comes up with a risky plan to get them safely out of the country. A plan so incredible, it could only happen in the movies.

Twice Born

Parental Guidance

But when 21st century problems collide with Artie and Diane's old school methods of tough rules, lots of love and old-fashioned games, it's learning to bend, and not holding your ground, that binds a family together.

Comment: Billy Crystal always makes me chuckle. And I'm glad to see Tom Everett Scott again.


Song for Marion

At odds with his son James (Christopher Eccleston) it is left to choir director Elizabeth (Gemma Arterton) to try and persuade Arthur that he can learn to embrace life.
