the accused
Starring Jodie Foster.
Tagline: The first scream was for help. The second is for justice.
Sarah Tobias goes to her local bar and is gang-raped by three
men. Thedistrictattorney on the case is Katheryn Murphy who wants
to prove that although Sarah had taken drugs that night and was
acting provocatively while in the bar, this is no reason for her
to be so brutally attacked and the men responsible should be brought
to justice.
This movie is based on actual events. Sarah Tobias goes into a
bar one night and winds up being gang raped by 3 guys. She is
introduced to an attorney named Katherine Murphy. Not only does
Katherine Murphy want to go after the men who commited the rape,
she wants to go after the men in the bar who cheered it on. But
Katherine has her work cut out for her. Her client has a past,
and that past could be used against her in court.
The General's Daughter
Starring John Travolta.
When a general's daughter (Leslie Stefanson), an army captain
in psychological operations, is found murdered, two warrant officers
(John Travolta, Madeleine Stowe) are brought in to investigate.
The young woman was staked down with tent poles, strangled, and
presumably raped. But what the investigators find is even more
bizarre, relating back to her days at West Point and involving
the general (James Cromwell) himself and his aide (Clarence Williams
III). The daughter's one confidant (James Woods) also ends up
as an apparent suicide and is assumed to be the culprit. Cover-ups
and sexual scandals rampage throughout the film. Timothy Hutton
appears as on an on-base officer.
The Pack (aka Il branco)
Tagline: Are you ready for the indefensible?
1994 -Directed by Marco RISI Starring :
Sasha Altea ,Angelika Krautzberger
Sexual assault and humiliations for two tourists : This is
one of the most terrible movies made in Italy:I didn't sleep the
night after seeing this movie,I kept on watching the film instead
of sleeping.It seems a documentary and in fact this is a true
story of two German girls, kidnaped and repeatedly gang-raped.
Don't show this movie to your children and you think it over before
watching it too.
Natural Born Killers
Tagline: The media made them superstars.
Two victims of traumatized childhoods become lovers and psychopathic
serial murderers irresponsibly glorified by the mass media.
Zapping, trash and violence culture, TV & media circus, love
(still there in the 90's), all the great themes of our changing
world are treated in this movie.
This is not just "another movie" this is also a great analysis of the American and western societies. Oliver Stone has really put his nail on it. That is what good cinema is all about (after all cinema is still an Art form, not yet a commodity, even in LA.Thank you Mr Stone)
Stringer (1999)
Tagline: Mercenaries of the information, they track the scoop the death, the madness.

As his girlfriend struggles to keep their relationship intact, his boss Wolko demands ever more sensational images... A bitter examination of the worst side of so-called journalism, created by a very good (though largely unknown) team.
